Not found on any North American spec Audi to my knowledge. Our warranty period is much longer
and in some cases, the use of launch control a certain number of times in some markets means whatever (shorter) warranty you have, is now void.

Alfa style rules in europe - April..
Just back from a 7 week tour of europe and am in love with the alfa styling. I used to love the old alfa too but thees just move me.
So April you seem to be in on these things, any news of value vis-a-vis their re-introduction to this country.
One should think that with GM really going down, see the $30 loss announced yesterday, that they should consider other options, like cars that people want.
Maybe re-badge the alfa to something like the Lexus/Infinity ploy?

The designer that has made Alfa a recent success now works for Audi:) But the character
of the cars remain far apart. Variety is the spice of life:-D
Alfa is supposed to be coming back to the US and sold via Maserati showrooms. First the 8c - which uses some Maserati coupe componenets, but it's own shorter and lighter composite chassis. I tried getting on the list, but with only a few hundred coming, you need to be famous and willing to spend far over sticker to acquire one.

Following will be the 159:

The new Spider:

And finally, the replacement for the big luxury oriented 166:

Since GM sold off it's stake in Fiat/Alfa some time ago, they are out of luck.
