Thumbs up Alfa Romeo in the USA !!!

Autodelta (a transformator as Alpina for BMW) is importing Alfa Romeo in the USA (currently the 166, GTV and Spider under other names)
Look on their american website : www.autodeltausa.com
Alas, there are not the 147, 156 and GTA.
Pic of the Autodelta 166.

We call it Alfa Romeo also. They are beautiful cars, and a great conversation piece at work over here (I would imagine).

Thanks for the site!

jsb88 : I'm european, but French before ! Europe will never be a "country" as the USA, it cannot : there are Italians, Germans, Belgians, Frenchs, English, etc. Too much nationalites ! and that's maybe not a bad think.
We're just the first "economic country" in the world, but not a nation.
I drove a 166 V6 Turbo, it's an extraordinarly car. Very nice and powerfull.
Alfa Romeo will actually come back with a dealer network arround 2005 (Fiat Group).

Autodelta's turbo 147 is arguably better looking than the 147GTA:



The Autodelta GTV/Spider is simply gorgeous, it looks awesome.

That's true, the 147 GTA is maybe "too much" as the design is concerned. The Autodelta 147 seems to be better.
But the motor of the 147 GTA is fabulous. And this car is THE best sport compact car, better than the Golf R32 or Audi S3 !
Not too expensive : 35 000€ (=US$34 000) compared with the competitors.
