Well that didn't take long. Looks like a hell of a crash.

Giulia motor FS

Selling a 2.9L V6 Twin Turbo engine with all accessories (including ecu and harness) & 8 speed auto transmission taken from a 2017 Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrofoglio (503HP 440lbs torque) with around 5k miles. Perfect upgrade to an old alfa or fiat, all the main parts needed from the donor car will be included for your project.

EDIT: I'm betting it came from this wreck

Holy crap! I don't think there is a straight panel left on it. Amazing. This right here is why you don't hand your 16 year old the keys to the 80k car.

^pure speculation. That looks like one hell of a high speed roll over.

Wonder if you could stuff that into the back if a X1/9?????

I'm amazed that it has 5000 miles on it already, I wonder if it was a press or demo model?

I haven't seen one in the wild yet, although they're being advertised fairly heavily in the Philly region, which also somehow manages to support at least 3 Maserati dealers. I'd much rather have a Guilia then a Quattroporte or Ghibli, but I guess I don't know so much anyway, if I did I'd be able to afford one, right?

Besides, the cool kids are driving Jags now anyway.

That lasted 250ish times longer than the Hellcat we looked at the other day.

Alfa reliability must have improved during it's time in exile.

It's hard to tell from the pictures but it looks to me like that thing has been underwater.

If not underwater, inserted into mud at a high rate of speed.

Hmm, the Abarth is almost paid off. I wonder if I would keep my warranty? I mean it's still in the family.

At the Fiat on the Dragon event in March, we had 4-5 show up.

Can't be more than a custom driveshaft away from a bolt in swap. Do it. Take pictures. Start a build thread. Before you know it, "the answer" on this board will be "Guilia swapped Abarth". You'll be legendary.

You'll need to log in to post.
