Okay, so it was a bit of a cheap trick to call this listing a 12-cylinder Alfa. If you ran them simultaneously, would that count? Honesty nonsense out of the way, we can focus on the cars. Brothers from an Alfetta mother and an Alfa 6 father, these are a pair of great, underappreciated 1980s cars. While everyone is busy chasing E30 BMW M3s, you could get into one of these, either of which is likely to be faster and just as exciting as any E30 car. Stock, the 3.0 6C engine put out 188bhp, and with the addition of S cams, you could get around 200bhp in an under-3000-lb. car. Find this pair of 6-cylinder Alfas for $5000 in Walnut Creek, CA.

Eighties Aero – 1988 Saab 900 Turbo
October 15, 2013This is starting to feel like a Saab 900-specific place, but honestly, there seem to be a good batch of them out there right now. Surprisingly, there are even more than the featured cars, but the ones shown here seem to represent some of the best or most unique of the cars available. In terms of its performance models, Saab had the SPG cars starting in 1986, and the Aero cars starting in 1993, but this is neither of those. It’s a 900 turbo with a very 1980s aero package – whale tail rear spoiler, deep front spoiler, SPG-style side cladding and rear vent covers, and rear skirts. Is it possible this is an SPG and the seller is simply not aware? You can find this 1986 Saab 900 turbo maybe-SPG for $3488 in Fremont, CA.
