Talk:Alfa Romeo 164

Who's the nutter that tries to say that the Arese v6 is the same as the Ferrari Dino v6? Dino v6 was designed by Vittorio Jano and the Alfa V6 by Giuseppe Busso. Edited it straight now tho. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Trevize se (talk • contribs)

Photo's

The main picture should be replaced by a better one. The current picture has been taken at night with a flash in an amateurish (sorry to use this word, but I only use it because it is possible to make good pictures at night) way. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.81.28.30 (talk) 07:58, 17 June 2008 (UTC)

Localization

No Alfa Romeo cars were ever marketed in Indonesia, at least not the 164/8. Corrected.

This section is written like an advertisement

This section is written like a press release. Although the car initially received (generally) positive reviews from most of the North American automotive press, the car quickly turned out to be a disaster. The car's many reliability problems quickly surfaced, resale values tanked, new car sales dropped sharply and Alfa Romeo again dropped out of the US market. This article makes it sound like the 164 was some sort of legend cementing Alfa's place among the world's automotive greats. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.229.73.57 (talk) 15:28, 17 March 2012 (UTC)

Not Testarossa influenced

Despite popular belief, 164 was not styled after the Testarossa! Said so the 164 designer, Enrico Fumia.YBSOne (talk) 10:34, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

Styling

I have removed styling section as its just a copy of a design section. It featured many untrua and not needed informations YBSOne (talk) 20:23, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

Quadrifoglio Verde not Quattro Valvole

Please do Your research more carefully before editing wikipedia. YBSOne (talk) 20:24, 27 February 2013 (UTC)

Twin Spark Engine

The block of the twin spark engine is not part of Alfa's history since the Thirties. The engine the twin spark was derived from was introduced with the Giulia in the mid-Sixties. Please be more careful before making such bold statements. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 84.178.155.254 (talk) 15:25, 13 August 2014 (UTC)

Weasel words

I have removed weasel words from the Development section. They were unsourced and were written in an advert like manner, like in a company sales literature. U¹ _quattro TALK 07:55, 24 May 2020 (UTC)
