Description : Gateway Classic Cars of Indianapolis is proud to offer this Beautiful Brown 1997 Alfa Romero 916 Spider. This pretty 1997 Alfa Romeo Spider is a drop-top spinoff of a coupe called the GTV, short for Gran Turismo Veloce, which roughly translates into "fast grand touring." Introduced as 1995 models, these cars came along a couple of years too late to make it to North America, as the company had decided in 1993 to pull out of North America and did so in 1995; Alfa's last model sold here was the 164 sedan. This 1997 Alfa Romero is powered by a 2.0L "twin-spark" four-cylinder that puts its 148 hp and 137 lb-ft of torque to the front wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. With the red exterior in good condition and the Lusso upgraded, tan colored leather interior looking as good as it does, you will definitely get loads of attention speeding down the street in this little beauty. With only 36,750 actual miles, this 1997 Alfa Romero Spider hasn't even been broken in yet.

About Alfa Romeo Spider
The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail, also known as the Alfa Romeo Spider Series 2, is a classic sports car that was produced by Alfa Romeo from 1970 to 1982. Here's some information about its development and features:1. Development: The Kammtail version of the Alfa Romeo Spider was introduced as a redesign of the original Spider, which was styled by Pininfarina. The Series 2 model featured several updates, including a new "Kamm" or "Kammtail" style rear end.
2. Kammtail Design: The Kammtail design was characterized by a truncated, squared-off rear end with a vertical rear window. This design element was influenced by the research of German aerodynamicist Wunibald Kamm, who found that a tapering rear end could reduce aerodynamic drag.
3. Styling and Features: The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail maintained the classic and elegant lines of its predecessor but featured updates such as a revised front grille, new bumpers, and larger taillights. The interior received some enhancements as well, including improved seating and revised dashboard layout.
4. Engine and Performance: The Spider Kammtail was offered with a range of engines throughout its production run, including inline-four engines with displacements ranging from 1.3 to 2.0 liters. These engines provided spirited performance and a thrilling driving experience, characteristic of Alfa Romeo sports cars.
5. Popularity and Collector Status: The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail has gained popularity among classic car enthusiasts due to its timeless design, open-top driving experience, and relatively accessible pricing compared to some other classic Italian sports cars. It is considered a classic car icon and continues to be appreciated by enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.
6. Cultural Significance: The Spider Kammtail gained significant exposure and recognition through its appearance in the 1967 film "The Graduate," where a red Alfa Romeo Spider played a prominent role. This exposure contributed to its desirability and iconic status.
The Alfa Romeo Spider Kammtail is celebrated for its distinctive design, enjoyable driving dynamics, and its connection to automotive history and pop culture. It remains a sought-after classic car today, valued for its timeless appeal and the exhilaration it provides behind the wheel.
