Alfa Romeo 159 may lead U.S. invasion in 2007
Sure it's pure speculation, but we like to imagine the day when Alfa Romeo returns to the United States. Reuters
reported that the brand won't come to the U.S. before 2007 because the company needs to have enough of their new
mid-size sedan, the 159, in production before launching in America. We're not sure if the wildly competitive mid-size
luxury segment is the right move. Of course Alfa might also have trouble returning with their well-remembered
roadsters, since that niche is looking crowded these days too.
