Overview of 1997 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 TS For Sale by Owner

Owning an Alfa Romeo is an act of lust, self-sacrifice and pure aural pleasure. That’s because these Italian machines are full of character, quirky, and need the appropriate maintenance to perform at their best. Neglect an Alfa Romeo and everyone will be sad (car included). However, if you look after it the way it’s meant to be, and drive it with gusto, you’ll find it quickly becoming your happy place, your solitude space. Furthermore, if you select a car like this New York-based 1997 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 TS that’s done just 37,000 miles, you’ll also be in charge of a definitive future classic, and a potentially appreciating asset.

Exterior and Interior

This 1997 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 TS comes in red because let’s face it, a bright red open-topped Alfa Romeo is the way to go. The paint job is new, and was completed in June 2024, we’ve been informed. This particular generation of Spider was released in 1993, and made for a little over ten years, which is why its design is definitely modern, even today. That dainty nose, dual circular headlamps and sloping front end all hark back to an era where good looks still prevailed over regulation and mandates. The car rides on a set of gold alloy wheels shod with new tires, and has also got a new black convertible soft top. Enter the two-seat passenger cabin of this car and you’ll quickly notice how driver-focused it is. The two major gauges (speed and engine revs) are housed in binnacles that can pretty much only be seen by the driver. The rev counter redlines at 7,000rpm which is a place you’ll want to venture quite a bit once you’ve heard and experienced the spunky Twin Spark unit. The center console is also angled towards the driver, and hosts the air conditioning system knobs, plus an aftermarket audio player from Alpine with Bluetooth capabilities. Behind the passenger cabin is a new wind deflector that helps reduce buffeting when driving with the top down – if you or your passenger are conscious of hair styles, this will be most useful.

Engine

This 1997 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0 TS gets its go-factor from a 2.0-liter naturally aspirated Twin Spark 4-cylinder engine, paired with a 5-speed manual transmission. The car is front-wheel drive but its handling prowess is so finely honed that you can have lots of fun with it. This car has reportedly received new rear shocks, a new timing belt for the engine, a new water pump, and a recent tune-up, apart from other things.
