It has a mysterious black thing instead of a license plate. (The Chase was filmed in Texas, so perhaps they ran out of prop California plates.) |

Seems like this is quite a rare car in the US isn't it? |

I do not have any info on Alfa Romeo sales in USA actually... but I guess that except for the small spiders (and maybe the Alfetta), they are not very common. |

Alfa pulled out of the market in the 70's mainly due to emissions' regulations. Since then I remember only the 75 'Milano' (V6 2.5, later 3.0) in the '80s and the Alfa 164 (V6 3.0) until the middle '90s. I believe they were sold through the Chrysler dealer network. As appassionato says, this is an US-spec model. -- Last edit: 2006-08-14 21:05:34 |

Alfa Romeo leaved the North American market in 1993. It was an abrupt decision because, when the first press photos of the GTV & Spider were published in the european motoring press in early 1994, one of the cars - I believe it was a GTV - was slightly different. It had no "blinkers" but had orange and red side lights instead... just like a US-spec model ! Which meant the GTV & Spider were ready for export well before the decision to pull out of the US market happened. |

Same kind of strange decision: the Volvo 480 which is US-specs (hence the popup headlights) but never sold there. |

From 1991 model year on in the US. The rear spoiler identifies the S version. |

Sadly the rear is what we only see of this car, the closest view we have of it is the one in the main picture, we can also see it several times in the far.![[Image: vlcsnap48937hg1.2051.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0is210/vlcsnap48937hg1.2051.jpg) ![[Image: vlcsnap49040sy9.8586.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/0is210/vlcsnap49040sy9.8586.jpg) |

What was the first model year of the 164 in North America? In Europe, it was launched in 1987 to replace the Alfetta, I think. |

Alfa 164 was sold from 1991-95 in North America. The 1987-89 Alfa Milano (75, everywhere else) was the sedan that followed the Alfetta here. There was a 7-year gap where sedans were not sold in North America. |

As rcpm states, this is a 1990-1992 164 "S" in the states, "QV" in other markets. This was the "sport" version with a number of additional features. From the rear, the spoiler and rear light are unique to this model (the rear valance is lower as well). Some european markets had different spoilers or none at all. (But the car I have is identical to this one). |
