In case you are keeping Track this is Video # 97 of Classic Car ChitChat Videos!
I hope my Classic Car ChitChat videos make you smile. I do them in my spare time because I truly love cars and my intentions are simply to honour the beautiful cars I get to see and to really understand the passion and love of the vehicle by the driver (or caretaker as Jay Leno would say) of the car. I also understand too that my videos perhaps lack the polish calibre of great KZbinrs like: Doug DeMuro, Scotty Kilmer, and of course my favourite Supercar Blondie. I also know that I can’t even come close the quality & finish you get from the likes of Jeremy Clarkson and the boys at Top Gear. I think they use a little fancier equipment than my little iPhone… LOL
Mission Statement:
My Objective through creating these videos is to shine the spotlight on people who love their vehicles whether it be a car, motorcycle, or even a bicycle…. Bottom line is if it has wheels and you love it then let’s show that passion to the world!
Equipment Used:
Camera
- Just an iPhone SE (Nothing fancy - which proves anyone can use whatever you have handy to make a video… you don’t need really expensive equipment)
- I also use Insta 360X2 which is perhaps one of the best investments I have made and allows me to capture some really cool 360 degree views and also creates a “drone like” effect with the invisible selfie stick attachment.
Gimbal - DJI OM4 - For that ultra-smooth cinematic look. (To be honest... still not quite sure how to use it but one day I will figure it out!)
Audio - Rode Wireless GO II (I gotta be honest… this is really the biggest investment that was made… I wish there was a cheaper option but after the first couple of videos I soon realized that audio quality is important and hopefully better than the onboard mic on the iPhone!
Contact Details: If you have any questions or just want to chat you can reach me through all the (non-traditional) typical ways through the following:

If you have read this far, then I thank you. As always, I truly appreciate your “thumbs-up”, and by leaving your comments it demonstrates to me that I managed to get you involved and hopefully made you smile. Most importantly when you subscribe to my channel then you are truly acknowledging my effort to help share with others like you my passion and love for “all things that have wheels” and honouring the people who take care of them.
Thank You
Kevin

This is perhaps the most beautiful Alfa Romeo body style ever made. The proportions are perfect and thank you Classic Car for reminding us that there are other beautful Italian cars out there other than the Lamborghini and Ferrari.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thank you Ken, I agree with you.

[@steveriley1178]

Such a great joy to see cars like these get the recognition they deserve.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

I agree.

[@bennyconiglio1928]

She's a beauty. All original. Ferrari's original colour when they were first produced. People think it's was Ferrari red.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thank you Benny, she is just a real gem.

[@bradjensen4927]

I have LOVED these since '91!! Sadly, I was a poor student then, and remained so until availability was pretty much gone.... Love this Yellow, and also the Foglia Green!

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Brad, First of all thank you so very much for watching my videos and subscribing to my channel I truly appreciate it. My intention for the videos is to allow ´ordinary people’ who love cars an opportunity to speak about their car and why that car means so much to them. After all we are all the ´caretakers’ of our cars (as Jay Leno rightly says). It truly is such a gem of a car. The way it's proportioned is just perfect too and with Alfa Romeo engineering it truly is an awesome car. Many years ago after I graduated from university I had a choice of either an 84 TransAm or an Alfa Romeo Alfetta GTV6. I bought the TransAm but I still think about the GTV6 😢

[@kaitoriyama6913]

This design is one of the best AR's ever built.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Kai, I agree with you.

[@Jeff_Brown659]

The AR Spider has to be one of the finest automobiles ever made.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

So true.

[@frankename1984]

What a sweet little car with great design cues from so many other beautiful Italian cars. Plus a fantastic video and fun to watch.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@wskroll]

I bought this exact same car new in 1993. Loved it! It's a passion.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Wskroll, it's easy to see why the car is so amazing with the right engine note and the "feel" that only Alfa know how to create. Also, thank you so very much for watching my videos and subscribing to my channel I truly appreciate it. My intention for the videos are not to be "how to" videos (I think there are amazing videos made by others far qualified than me) instead my focus is to create a platform where "ordinary" people who love cars get an opportunity to speak about their car and why that car means so much to them.

[@giorkaro8971]

Beautiful vehicle! Color is stunning!

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

It really is!

[@rooneyroo5338]

Well done for restoring it and bringing back to its glory.. I love that... Us car people sometimes make no sense to non car people.....

[@diegovasquez7048]

I am so impressed seeing this car.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

So true

[@troycobb6925]

I used to have an AF back in college. I paid $700 for it and drove it for 3 years and each day I got nothing but smiles and a lot of cool girls too. 👧

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

I bet Troy. Don't you still miss that car.

[@davejohnson2814]

Italian all the way through. Beautiful engineering.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

I agree Dave

[@omarhanraman9133]

This car is breathtaking and has all the perfect design cues.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Rims like that are Also known as pepper pot rims 😊.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Thanks Dennis.. that sounds like a great name.

[@tonyhladun9081]

I had a yellow one like this in Alberta from 2011 to 2014. It was a great car and I really enjoyed it...but then a yellow manual shift 2002 Maserati Spyder came along.

Tony, at least you stuck with the Spyders 😊.

[@tonyhladun9081]

@@ClassicCarChitChat My pleasure. To add a bit. The early Bosch injection on the S4 made it reliable and low maintenance. Imagine in 1993 it had an engine with variable inlet valve timing. The engine itself was an aluminum work of art. Only its solid rear axle canvas strap travel limits gave away its age. The thing you had to watch for is that beautiful finned oil sump didn't like curbs.

[@paololongo7161]

Slight correction to the video, Tony is not the only one in Canada to have this exact model in this Ferrari yellow, there is another 😁

Incredible car and great video again. I really enjoy watching your videos so please keep them coming. How are you creating the drone video shots?

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Danny, glad you liked the video. I use the insta360 to get the "drone like" video.

[@juliafinch359]

I had always wanted a 60's Alfa Rome Spider but this one just made it my new love. Classic Car Chitchat is this car for sale and If not how much will it take for you to sell it? ❤

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Julia.. I don't think it's for sale.

[@deargdoom8743]

The interviewer should have done SOME research in advance. Jeez! Beautiful car though.

[@ClassicCarChitChat]

Deargdoom, First of all thank you so very much for watching my videos and subscribing to my channel I truly appreciate it. My intention for the videos is to allow "ordinary" people who love cars an opportunity to speak about their car and why that car means so much to them. I deliberately do not research on any of the cars I make videos of. My intent is to allow the owner to share information about their beloved car and my role is to try and hold the camera straight and learn as much as possible about the car. My videos are intended to be informative and more than anything fun.
