No Reserve: 1997 Alfa Romeo 155 V6 5-Speed

This 1997 Alfa Romeo 155 is a Japanese-market example that was imported to the United States by the seller for the current owner in 2022. The car is finished in red and powered by a 2.5-liter Busso V6 linked to a five-speed manual transaxle. Features include a front spoiler with Carello fog lights as well as a decklid spoiler, 17″ OZ Racing alloy wheels, lowering springs, gold-painted brake calipers, a MOMO strut-tower brace, a Recaro adjustable driver’s seat, automatic climate control, power windows, rear sunshades, and an aftermarket stereo. Work under current ownership is said to have involved replacing the timing belt, performing fluid changes, completing a tune-up, and servicing the air conditioning system. This 155 V6 now shows 109k kilometers (~68k miles) and is offered at no reserve on behalf of the owner with manufacturer’s literature, spare parts, and a clean New Jersey title.

The 155 was styled by Ercole Spada while at the I.DE.A Institute in Turin, Italy, and was updated in 1995 with widened front and rear tracks and flared fenders. This example is finished in red and features integrated Carello fog lights, projector-style headlights, and Quadrifoglio fender badging as well as bumpers, side skirts, and a decklid spoiler that are said to be from Zender. The seller notes evidence of prior paintwork, and scratches on the front spoiler, damage to the left rocker panel, and other imperfections can be viewed in the photo gallery below. The seller also reports that a ceramic coating was applied to the exterior in March 2023.
