1993 Alfa Romeo 164 Description

1993ALFA ROMEO 164 L
Going to tell you all I know and everything that's right and needs a little TLC with this
"Classic"
Alfa Romeo 164L
I picked this car up at the end of December, 2017. Trailered her home, pulled it off the trailer and drove her to my local Alfa Romeo tech.
He went over it, changed all the fluids, did some tightening of any loose clamps or whatever and gave her a
"Good Bill of Health"
with some minor needs which I will note below.
I then brought her home; put her in the garage and was waiting until the Ohio Spring kicked in; didn't want her to be driven in the snow and salt roads.
While I was waiting for Spring; my buddy calls me (another "Car Guy") and says that a car he has had for some time and I have been after him to sale me is going up for sale bad timing on my part.

So; I have to get rid of one of my toys before I buy the other car.
Since this Alfa Romeo 164L is the newest; well she's the one that is going up for sale.
The Alfa Romeo 164L is in extremely good condition.
I bought it off a "Classic Car" dealer and they were the second titled owner but really I am the second owner.
They did a Car Fax check and it came back clear.
PICTURES
The pictures attached are both ones that I took and the ones from the dealer - dealer pictures look so good I used them but the car looks exactly the same
GOOD
Great Body(no damage except for one area - above rear well lip - common bad spot on these cars, nothing major)Great Paint (shine)Great Interior - Full LeatherFull Power - Seats, Mirrors, LocksSun RoofExceptionally Clean Engine Compartment - TrunkTires and Wheels in Great ConditionFull Spare (donut-original)Original Took KitRadio - FM/AM/CasetteTinted Exterior MirrorsNice / Next To New TiresOriginal Owners Manual and Card
This car is a true "Head Turner" and you won't have another pull up next to you on the highway - getting rare to find. With the Alfa Romeo being re-introduced to the US market these are going up and value and collectability.
If you check out the value do a"Classic Car Value" checkand not aKelly Blue Book;
Hagerty is a good site for a valid car value check.
WHAT IT NEEDSRear Radio Antenna is broken off - needs repaired but the radio still comes in clear.
Tech noted that the rear Anti Lock Brake Wheel Sensor is hanging up (possibly from sitting) and needs replaced;
I was planning on doing this come spring - cost approximately $300.00
Below is all the information you should need.
She's a great car and I was planning on enjoying her on a daily basis but I can't miss out on the other car that was offered to me.
TRADES
Although I need most of the cash I'm asking for the Alfa Romeo 164L I will consider "partial trades" (I'm a car guy, we always look at what's out there) just to help out any potential buyer; such as: classic (small size) motorcycles; boat; other older classic cars; something I can enjoy and have fun with.
Thanks for taking the time to read all this and if you have any questions please drop me an email.
GOOD LUCK

REVISION
Truly appreciate all the emails and questions. Let me response to the majority of them via this "Revision".
1. The car is in extremely good condition. It is 25 years old and you just don't find many 25 year old cars in this condition let alone an Alfa Romeo 164L. The quote that I am the "Second Owner" of the car is based on the fact that the "dealer" purchased it and was the "second titled owner" but simply put it up for sale and then I purchased it. I have the "original" owners manual and "Owner'sCard". I attempted and will continue to do more research on the car, try to find out more of it's "History".
2. We all know that the "timing belts" on the Alfa Romeo V6 engines need maintained and changed about every 30-50 thousand miles. I'm not sure when or if this "timing belt" was changed but based on my techs inspection (he said he wouldn't do anything with it at this point) and based on the "condition" of the car, and the fact that not many hands have touched it, also the original owner was a female (don't accuse me of being anti-women mechanic, I'm not) I'm assuming that the maintenance (belt included) was maintained and changed when/if needed.
3. I realize that you may find some Alfa Romeo 164s out there for $2K- $3K or less but do your research. The 1993 had a lot of upgrades (mostly metal improvements) and the ones for the cheaper price usually need paint, mechanics, tires, been through 3-4 owners and have high mileage. You may buy them cheaper but by the time you get them up and running, looking good, well you in fairly deep. This one is ready to drive and show. It's what I call a "Wash-N-Wax" classic.
4. Finally; I'm selling the Alfa Romeo based on what I stated in the description. I've been after the other car (friends car) for years; he wasn't going to sale it; I was looking for an Alfa Romeo 164 after doing some classic car research, seeing that they are "rising in price and collectability" and found this beauty. So if she doesn't sale, well I won't get the friends car but won't be disappointed owning this beauty.
I hope this answers most questions; you won't be disappointed with the Alfa Romeo and hey; if you want to shoot me an
"Offer To Buy It Now"
I'll entertain all.
Thanks for looking and "Good Luck"

REVISION
Many emails asking me what the "Shipping" would cost. My response: There are many shipping companies out there and I even think that eBay can assist on this; they list shipping services. Also: If the distance isn't too far (east, south, mid west) I can assist; I will put the Alfa Romeo on a trailer (open) and deliver it based on $0.75 per. mile (round trip based on "Google" map search - my zip code is 4406).
