I have returned from overseas so the car is back up for sale from late April 2026. Car was stored, covered and runs perfect.
Finished in Grigio Lipari metallic paint, Momo leather seats. 17 inch wheels and sunroof (optional). Only traveled 75,500km. Clean PPSR.
Car purchased new from Alfa Italia in Rozelle in 2005. I am the 2nd owner and purchased the car in 2014 with an odometer reading of 49K.
This model is the sought after facelift V6 with the ‘Busso’ 2.5 Litre engine. The soundtrack is superb... If you know you know!
The automatic transmission features the 'Q-system' which allows you to drive the car like a clutchless manual using the gear stick and it’s also gated. The gearbox is made by Aisin (Japan) so it’s strong and reliable. If you feel like having a bit of fun, the 'Q-System' offers am engaging driving experience,
Once rolling this car is rapid and with its high performance engine and the light mods done it picks up revs quickly.
The 0-100km sprint in manual shift is more on par with a 156 V6 manual, dare to say quicker with the mods - low 7 seconds I find this fast enough.
This car has been well cared for. Original carpet mats are in excellent condition. Only premium fuel/oils, always garaged,
Following enhancements done:
- Boot lip/spoiler
-Phillips Xtreme headlights
-Pioneer audio + Alpine Speakers + hands free calling connected to steering controls (Original Radio Inc )

No warning lights, everything works. The car has dual climate control, AC could do with a regas but cools as is.
Has traction, airbags , abs, sport and ice mode, power everything (that you really need).
As with any older car there are cosmetic imperfections, some small dings and scratches around the car. Many are small and could be fixed. Scrapes on bottom of front bumper (new bilstein shocks fitted has raised clearance ) . Gutter rash on all wheels but these have been painted over. Pictures in gallery.

Interior is in excellent condition including all seats. All instruments and electronics work.

Price reflects the condition, work done, lower kilometres and extras you get that you are unlikely to find on another 156 V6.
Previously insured with Enthusiast motor insurance for $15,000.
Would suit enthusiast/collector. Much much cheaper than a GTA and has plenty to offer.
Price reduced from $12,900. Open to offers from serious buyers not via messages.
