The Alfa Romeo 164 arrived on the scene in 1987 as the last of the "Type 4" chassis cars, sharing its platform with the Saab 9000, Fiat Croma, and Lancia Thema. Designed by Pininfarina, the 164 was a bold statement for Alfa Romeo, marrying executive sedan comfort with the brand's quintessential sporting verve. It marked a significant shift towards front-wheel drive for Alfa's larger sedans, yet it retained the soul-stirring engine note and engaging driving dynamics enthusiasts expected. The Lusso (L) trim, introduced for the North American market, emphasized luxury, offering a more opulent cabin experience alongside its spirited performance. This 1991 Alfa Romeo 164 L exemplifies the model's elegant appeal, presented in a sleek black exterior that perfectly complements its tan interior. Under the hood lies the legendary 3.0-liter "Busso" V6, renowned for its operatic exhaust note and smooth power delivery, here paired with an automatic transmission for effortless cruising. With 136,903 miles on the odometer, this example has been enjoyed as intended, offering a testament to the robust engineering of its era while still promising the engaging character only an Alfa Romeo can provide. For the enthusiast seeking a distinctive Italian sedan with a pedigree, this 164 L represents a compelling proposition.
