Columbus Day Special: 1995 Alfa Romeo 164 Diesel

DailyTurismo Modern Classic 164, Alfa Romeo, Columbus Day, Italian 3

Happy Columbus Day to all Italian-Americans out on the web, a day where we celebrate that crazy Genoese sailor who tried to find his way to the East (he probably wanted some JDM parts before you could overnight them from Japan…) by sailing West. It is also Canadian Thanksgiving (say what!?) but we’ll save our Turkey & Poutine Cacciatore jokes for the next feature. Sorey a boot that. Anyway, this Italian machine will need to get a ride on the next Niña, Pinta, or Santa Maria to head West across the Atlantic because it is located in The Netherlands, but Find this 1995 Alfa Romeo 164 Diesel offered for $3,499 buy-it-now or make-offer located in Ried, Netherlands via eBay.

Balena Bianca: 1994 Alfa Romeo 164LS

DailyTurismo Uncategorized 164, 164LS, Alfa Romeo, Italian 3

This next car comes as a tip from Erik202 who writes: Without looking at this car in person it’s hard to say but my feeling is the seller is overly enthusiastic about it’s condition. That being said, there doesnt seem to be any rust and the interior looks to be in great shape minus one shift […]

Double Cappuccino: 1993 Alfa Romeo 164

DailyTurismo Uncategorized 164, 164L, Alfa Romeo, Fleet, Italian 3

Is it a good sign or a bad sign when someone sells his entire fleet of cars? On the one hand you get a ton of spare parts to keep the “good” car running…but on the other hand…you NEED a ton of spare parts cars to keep the “good” one running….sheesh. It is also an […]

Italian Cheapskate: 1991 Alfa Romeo 164L

DailyTurismo Uncategorized 164, 164L, Alfa Romeo, Italian 2

Two thousand pages of Uncle Sam’s greenbacked promissory notes doesn’t buy much in a car these days. Just about anything that passes your local inspection requirements and can be driven home is worth more than $2k…but what if I said you could get a future classic for $2k that comes from Italy and has a […]

Swedish Rolls: 1975 Volvo 164E

DailyTurismo Uncategorized 164, 164E, Swedish, Thorsday, Volvo 6

The name Volvo comes from the latin Volvere which means “I roll“, so it is not without some degree of irony that the next seller calls his Volvo a “Swedish Rolls”. And here I thought a Swedish Roll was a freshly baked Kardemummabullar. Find this 1975 Volvo 164E offered for $3,200 in St Paul, MN via […]

Low Miles AutoBox: 1994 Alfa Romeo 164

DailyTurismo Uncategorized 164, Alfa Romeo, Auto, Busso, Italian, Slushbox, V6 2

Nineteen Ninety-four was a good year for cars. You could get a Buick Roadmaster Estate with the LT1 V8, or a Mk IV Supra with the 2JZ-GTE, or an NA MX-5 Miata with the bigger 1.8 liter BP-ZE inline-4 — but for some unknown reason I find myself inexplicably drawn to this next Alfa like […]

5k: Prettiest Swedish Face: 1971 Volvo 164

DailyTurismo Uncategorized 164, CFlo, Thorsday, Volvo 5

Volvo’s 164 was the long luxurious take on their venerable brick formula – they took the 144 sedan, extended the wheelbase forward of the firewall to fit a few more cylinders, and added a stately Rolls Royce-esque front styling treatment to match the upmarket engine. It may not have the panache (or power) of an […]

The Alfa Romeo 164 was a Pininfarina styled executive sedan built in Milan from 1987 to 1998. It was one result of the Type Four joint venture between Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia and Saab, which also produced the Lancia Thema, Saab 9000, and Fiat Croma. Personally, I think the Alfa is the most desirable of […]
