    Looks good...sounds even better :)

    Would love to see some of the engine pics - the 164 engine is a pretty nice looking lump of metal.

    Great car, those are the kind of Alfas that make the unbelieving have faith in the brand, just by listening to that sound!

    I bought it very late in autumn...so very few of my friends have seen it before it went into winter storage. The fun part was....I called my friend out of his house to check out my new car.....and he was like: "ok now that´s ugly". Then I started up the engine and he just gived me that look that he always gives me when I buy a new car....kind of like: "Ok so what has he under the hood this time". Then we went for a drive....and when I topped out 2nd and 3rd gear for the first time.....he was screaming like a school girl and laughing at the same time. Same reaction with my older brother (who is a professional drag racer and you gotta be pushing at least 1000+ hp to make his eyebrows go up).

    here´s another video! you can hear the sound of the car alot better in this one.....and there´s inside footage when it tops out in 5th. You cant even compare the sound to real life...but it´s still good.

    Awesome! Thanks for sharing. I'm looking into buying an alfa this summer (so many to choose from!) I'm looking at a green 1995 LS right now that I think is the one I would prefer to own thus far.

    LS is the north American equivalent to a 164 Super 24V

    Parham, what wheels are those ? Haven't seen them on a 90 before. In fact haven't seen many 90s before and yours a looker.......
    Rare car the 90 is, at least in Malaysia, Singapore and most Asian countries. Heck, I think even the States don't have 'em...

    Their Compomotive wheels. Yes the 90 is very rare and their is not many left, so if you ever buy one...make sure you take care of it well! And as far as my 90...there´s only this one with these kind of mods that I know of.

    What kind of stats? 0-60 and so on? I saw your top speed hit 142 not sure yet but my 164ls is supposed to hit 140+ as well. Mine hits 60 at around 7 seconds and as for HP is about 210 but I hope to do some modding as well after I pay it off :) what kind of mods have you done? (digi chip. exhaust etc.?)

    Yeah I don't think I've seen or heard of any 90s being in the states. Very nice.

    My car does 160mph, we just stopped recording because we ran out of road.
    Alfa 90, 164 3.0 Alfa engine transplant with following mods: DTA Fast engine managent, Velocity stacks, open throttle bodies, brembo breaks, red stuff, carbon fibre clutch, cams ENEM, higher compression,racing exhaust, zagato exhaust manifold, forged pistons, engine balancement + reinforcement (rods ,pistons, etc), TS gearbox
    adjusted camber, torsion sticks (27mm), bilstein gas dampers, springs, dedions...etc etc....etc...

    previous owner is a famous swedish race car driver and has put down more than 30K on the car. Not sure about the 0-60 times as I have not hooked up the G-tech pro to it yet. But I didn´t buy it for performance.....I got a Evo 2 as well, which does 0-62mph in 2.1 seconds (european record holder)....I bought the alfa because of the beautiful sound and drive.
