1991 Alfa Romeo Spider Convertible Series 4
First year for the Series 4 updates in North America – Spiders enjoyed a production run of almost 30 years! One of 3,478 Alfa models sold in the United States in 1991 Silver exterior with black cloth top and tan interior 2.0L DOHC four-cylinder engine with Motronic fuel injection Five-speed manual transmission Power steering and driver’s side airbag Comes with original radio plus other, assorted partsAnother cute convertible has arrived at MotoeXotica Classic Cars in the form of a rarely seen 1991 Alfa Romeo Spider. If you want a classic convertible that stands apart and you’re seeking some minor automotive projects, come by to take a look. This example was built in San Giorgio Canavese, Italy in March 1990.
Finished in silver, this car’s paint and trim are in overall very good condition, but there are some minor blemishes visible upon close inspection. The car’s glass panels are in great shape, as are its lights. This droptop rolls on radial tires, sized 185/70R14, and surrounding factory wheels. The tires and wheels are in good order.
All of the body panels are solid and straight and the car come with a black cloth top. The trunk, battery and engine bay are in good condition while the bumpers are in very good order.
Under the hood is Alfa’s 2.0L DOHC four-cylinder engine with aluminum block and head plus Motronic fuel injection. The engine is mated to a five-speed manual transmission. Driver convenience features include power steering.
Inside, the car’s tan and black interior is completely original. The tan bucket seats are in fair condition while the contrasting black carpeting is in very good order. The black instrument panel is also in fair shape, with cracks visible on the dash top. A four-spoke factory steering wheel faces the driver, complete with airbag. The steering wheel, inner door panels, mirror glass, center console and shifter are all in good order. Car has a JVC AM/FM/XM Sirius receiver installed and comes with the original radio and a box of other parts. The car is equipped with air conditioning but is currently inoperable.
The successor to the Giulia Spider, this Spider remained in production for almost three decades with only minor aesthetic and mechanical changes. Pininfarina in Grugliasco assembled the first three series while Alfa’s factory in San Giorgio Canavese built the fourth series.
The final major changes to the Spider came in 1990, when it was given Bosch Motronic electronic fuel injection and full-width plastic bumpers the same color as the car. It gained an electric fan and 164-style rear lights stretching across the width of the trunk, and lost both front under-bumper and rear trunk-lid spoilers. This also marked the first generation with on-board diagnostics and an optional automatic transmission.
In North America, the styling changes did not appear until the 1991 model year; 1990 models featured the Motronic fuel injection but retained the black bumpers. Power steering, larger knee bolsters and a driver-side airbag also appeared as standard for North American market Spiders, which were available in two configurations: Spider and Spider Veloce.
Competition to this Alfa in 1991 included such convertibles as Buick’s Reatta, Chrysler’s LeBaron, Infiniti’s M30, Mazda’s Miata and Mercury’s Capri XR2
