Alfa Romeo Spider
Back in 1966, the Alfa Romeo Spider was Italy’s answer to the popularity of those cool British roadsters. Eventually, it became globally popular, so it’s an Alfa Romeo model with the longest production run. They built the Spider on the Alfa 105 sedan/coupe base with a Pininfarina-designed body. It had alloy twin cam engines and rear wheel drive.
During the late ’60s, the car became popular in the movie, The Graduate, when Dustin Hoffman drove a red Spider. They made most of the 120,000 Spiders until 1994. They sold many of them in America, so these gems are inexpensive and quite common.
