Geneva Preview: Alfa Romeo 159 TI Versions

[Zafiro]

Available for both 159 sedan and Sportwagon versions, the TI logo adds sporty exterior and interior elements as well all larger brakes with red callipers. According to Alfa, TI versions get larger tyres, 19” alloy wheels and sideskirts. In the interior there’s leather covered bucket seats, a new sporty steering wheel with red stitches, dark upholstery on the roof and the pillars, new instrument graphics etc.

Apart from the TI versions, Alfa announced that it’ll also debut 159 Sportwagon 210Hp 2.4 JTDM Q4 and the brand-new Blue&Me Nav system

That is well done.

OMG. the italians are striking hard in the looks department. BTW there is a rumor of a possible 169 concept in Geneva.

Absolutely stunning! If they can't do anything else right, Italians know how to make a gorgeous car, a "wagon" no less!!

I wait for the day Alfa returns to the U.S. It will be the only option for an affordable Italian car! Hopefully their quality and reliability won't make us regret buying one.

Slightly off topic:
my uncle took a lease on an Alfa Romeo 159 JTDm recently...
anyone knows what the red-colored 'M' stands for? Motorsport?
I was surprised how well it was built, especially the interior is gorgeous (with some sort of ribbed alu trim, and black leather seats ). I don't think the interior of the Alfa 156 (on which the 159 is based) was that well built?
