RE: US-registered 155 T Spark on Ebay

["Michael & Carmen Keith" <mikeandcarmen@domain.elided>]

That car has been listed on ebay before.  I don't have any idea how it got
registered in the US though.  However, I would be hesitant to buy it.  Maybe
I'm paranoid, or maybe it's just an effect of the photo, but in the photo at
the top of the listing, it looks like the front fender & hood are a
significantly different shade of white then the rest of the car.  I thought
this the first time I saw it listed, & it still looks that way to me now.

Anyone else agree?

Subject: US-registered 155 T Spark on Ebay

Anybody take a look at the 1996 155 Twin Spark on Ebay? The description says
it has 37,000 miles and a US title (their words, not mine). After what Ive
read about importing recent cars that were never US-certified, I didnt
think this could happen. I have seen plenty of non-US-spec older Alfas like
Montreals and Z Jrs., and the very occasional ex-diplomat or temporary
foreign workers car, like the Nuvolo Blue 156 that lurks in San Francisco,
but not a 155. Who is buying it, and when can I come over and drive it?
