Iniezione on my spider? Anyone knows what it means? (this is a forum, so complete words are allowed)

The word is Iniezione and means (fuel) injection. Means also that the spider is built for the North American market

There is hardly anything wrong with Spica. The only real problem is that there are hardly any mechanics out there who can setup the spica injection in a proper way.

Apart from that an Iniezione badge, doesn't mean the Spica is still actually fitted on the Spider in question. Most Spiders who are brought to Europe have had a carburettor conversion.

Of course, that's working on the assumption that our poster is in Europe. I really wish newbies would learn to fill in the "country" field. I mean it's not like the geographic location has anything at all to do with the sale price of a car.

As for SPICA haters ---

The fuel injection system really is a perfect representation of Alfa. For starters, as best I can tell, it was internally developed -- not an outsourced, bolted on piece of equipment from some other supplier -- an importance difference that seems to cause a bit of concern at AO, especially in these days when Alfa is using non-Alfa originated engine parts. It was a highly advanced system for it's time -- and don't I always here about how far ahead of the engineering curve Alfa always is/was? It is truly a quirky, unique little set-up, characteristics which are trademark features of Alfa Romeo. Plus when it works it works, and when it gets buggered up, it really, really doesn't work (or so I hear, as I have no personal experience with this type of problem). After hanging around this forum for a couple of years, I have to say that really sounds like the definition of an Alfa.

....I think you could be correct Toronto...

"Muffler and shocks" together with "miles" may indicate that wllmptrck is on your side of the Pond,

Even still, there's a lot of territory over here, and car prices vary depending on what side of what border you call home. See my post about ebay pricing summary to get an idea of the difference in the markets.

For the record, my car is still in miles even though we're a metric country.

There's also nothing to say our poster isn't a transplanted Yankee living abroad. Lots of the U.S. service guys pick up cars in Germany, etc. when posted overseas and then sell them before coming home rather than be faced with the paperwork hassle and transport costs involved with bringing a car back into the U.S. of A.

Anyone notice at NAD, the K&L jumble stand were selling: "Full speaker injection system"
