MSRP:$36,000 – $41,000
The 1999–2001 Alfa Romeo 166 2.5 V6 24v combines the substantial presence of Alfa Romeo's executive sedan with a naturally aspirated 2.5-liter V6. Producing 188 hp and 166 lb-ft of torque, the DOHC 24-valve engine sends power to the front wheels through a five-speed manual transmission. The result is a 143 mph top speed and a 7.8-second 0–60 mph time, giving the 166 a strong balance between relaxed cruising and responsive performance.
Inside, the 166 offers a spacious four-door layout with seating for five and 17.3 cubic feet of luggage space. Its 3,351-pound curb weight, double-wishbone front suspension and multi-link rear arrangement give the sedan a planted road-going character. With 21.6 mpg combined economy and a 19-gallon fuel tank, the 2.5 V6 24v provides useful touring ability while retaining the smooth, characterful power delivery associated with Alfa Romeo's V6 engines.
