1990 Alfa Romeo Spider Reviews, Pricing & Specs

Most enjoyable ride in a car. Very quick, can take any corner at any speed, and the most beautiful lines. The most fun and classic. Alfa Romeo is the most passionate car manufacturers and holds a high level of respect. Each of their cars are works of art, when treated the right way. I cannot say a favorite era in Alfa's history because they are all great, but having owned a 164L and now a Spider, I can hope to become a collector in the future. The special edition Spider, the Quadrifoglio remembers and pays hommage to past Alfas and its racing heritage.

My second Spider. I love these cars even if they don't always love me back. Our relationship is complicated, but deep. My wife talks about getting a Miata. I don't think she understands me or being an Alfisti. The mechanicals are solid -- except that second gear syncro. The wiring was designed to confuse and doesn't always match the shop manual. However, if you can find an Alfa mechanic worth his/her salt, this is the car that will make you smile.
