Alfa Romeo Gtv Gtv on 2040-cars
Dumas, Texas, United States
Excellent condition 1974 Alfa Romeo GTV. The paint and interior was done by the previous owner and is in good shape. There is not door ding or problem with the paint that I can see. The interior seats looks brand new and are awesome looking with that red color. This should not be considered a fully restored car. The engine runs good but has not been completely overhauled (would say that the engine will need some work to make it as nice as the other parts of the car). I have been told the car has matching numbers but I have not confirmed. As you can see by the pictures the Alfa decals and appropriate markings are all on the car. It is very fun to drive and will make someone a great weekend vehicle. I purchased recently to help a friend out and really just do not need another car in the garage. Hate to see it go but also want someone to have some fun with it. I do not know much about the car other than how it looks. Thanks for looking and good luck bidding. Questions that I have been asked?1. Was the original color black? - I am not totally sure but there is no indication of any other color that I have found in the engine compartment, truck or wheel wells. I think it was black prior to painting. 2. Do you have other spare parts or materials? - No I do not. I have owned for only a short period of time and just trying to sell due to never really needing or desiring such a car. Great looking but not for me. I purchased due to a friend needing immediate money for a legal situation. Just trying to help him by purchasing the car from him. Now I am just trying to sell it to get my money back. Not trying to profit on the deal. 3. Can you give me pictures of the engine? - Now added to the pictures.4. Is there rust?- Not that I can see. Added pictures of the undercarriage. 5. Can I come see the car? - Sure.6. Things I have noticed - no radio, turn signal does not work, no fuel injection - Webber Carbs instead (per last owner), and no paint bubbles anywhere that I see. 7.

CEO says Volkswagen's buying spree is over
Mon, 03 Sep 2012
After adding Italian motorcycle icon Ducati to its stable and spending $5.6 billion on the rest of Porsche, Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn says he's done shopping for a while.
"We have enough to do at the moment in taking our twelve brands to where we want to be," Winterkorn tells German newspaper Handelsblatt.
Marchionne offers belated apology for 'wop engine' comment
Wed, 22 May 2013Automotive News reports Fiat-Chrysler CEO Sergio Marchionne has issued a written apology for his comments regarding his decision to stick with an Italian engine for the upcoming Alfa Romeo 4C. As you may recall, back in January, Marchionne was quoted as saying, "I cannot come up with a schlock product, I just won't. I won't put an American engine into that car. With all due respect to my American friends, it has to be a wop engine." The CEO penned an apology to the Italian American ONE VOICE Coalition for using the racial epithet, saying that he made the comment in jest. Marchionne also said he realizes his remarks were unacceptable.
ONE VOICE, an organization aimed at fighting discrimination and stereotyping of Italian Americans, thanked Marchionne, Chrysler and Fiat for the apology. Marchionne is an Italian-born Canadian citizen, and he's gotten in trouble for other comments in the past. In 2011, he called high interest rates Chrysler was paying to the Canadian government "shyster rates." He apologized a day later.
Mazda engineers urging execs for more RWD models
Wed, 02 Oct 2013According to Edmunds, Mazda engineers are pressuring the company to create more rear-wheel-drive models, in an effort to better differentiate itself from its rivals. This push is reportedly coming from middle and senior engineers within the company, and these folks at Mazda believe this rear-drive strategy would allow the automaker to produce more distinctive, fun to drive cars. Mazda discontinued the rear-drive (and rotary-engined) RX-8 a few years ago, leaving the MX-5 Miata as the company's only RWD offering.
As enthusiasts, we're fully on board with Mazda offering more rear-drive cars, but unsurprisingly, the company's top management isn't exactly keen on the idea - and with good reason. First and foremost, the cost associated with redesigning fresh architecture for new models would be very high, and considering the fact that Mazda hasn't exactly been raking in the dough lately, an expensive new venture like this doesn't make a whole lot of sense. What's more, Mazda's latest front-drive models - the Mazda3, Mazda6 and CX-5 - have been very well-received, and are helping the company gain sales momentum.
But that doesn't mean there aren't other options. Edmunds reminds us that Mazda is already partnering with Alfa Romeo on the next-generation Miata, and if this collaboration is successful, perhaps the relationship could bear additional fruit. After all, Alfa Romeo is said to be working on returning to its rear-wheel-drive roots, so Mazda's engineers might be able to make a case for more RWD goodness after all.
