Description
Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 | 1988
Highlights:
-
- Classic 2.0 liter Twin Cam 4-cylinder
- 5-speed manual transmission
- Silver metallic exterior with black soft top
- Updated interior with grey leather seats and red carpets
This 1988 Alfa Romeo Spider is from the later “Series 3” generation, instantly recognizable by its aerodynamic bumpers and tidy proportions. Finished in silver metallic with a contrasting black soft top, this example carries the timeless lines of Alfa’s classic two-seat roadster, a car that remained in production for nearly three decades.
Power comes from Alfa Romeo’s 2.0 liter Twin Cam inline-four, paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. Known for its character and exhaust note, the 2.0 engine is the most sought-after version of the Spider, offering a balance of performance and usability. With rear-wheel drive and communicative steering, it delivers the engaging driving feel that has made the Spider a favorite among enthusiasts.
The cabin of this car features some updates, including grey leather seats with red stitching and striking red carpets, with some signs of use. The dashboard remains in its classic form with round Alfa Romeo instruments, a wood-rimmed steering wheel, and a wooden gear knob adding vintage charm.
On the exterior, the silver paint presents well in the sun with some signs of use. The black soft top fits tightly over the frame. The car sits on factory Alfa Romeo “phone dial” alloy wheels, further emphasizing its late 1980s character.
Overall, this Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 is a presentable and usable youngtimer. It offers the charm of Italian open-top motoring, paired with the responsive Twin Cam engine and manual gearbox. While not a showpiece, it provides a solid base for regular enjoyment or gradual improvement by its next owner.
