Italian car fans in the US will have something to cheer about. Alfa Romeo is
coming back to the US market after only six years of absense. No news on when
(I would say within the next three years), but look for the Spider, GTv, 156,
156 wagon, and 166 to cross the Atlantic. Also, British sports car maker TVR
is coming back in late 2001 with the new Tuscan, which will be built in a new
factory in Brazil. Priced at around $90,000. And don't forget DeTomaso has
already returned to the US market (dealers in Miami and LA), and Maserati
returns this fall! And Renault comes back next spring (under Infiniti
nameplate), and Mercedes-Benz Commercial trucks returns for 2002 (they will be
selling the Sprinter passenger/cargo van), though FedEx, who palced a HUGE
order for Mercedes-Benz Sprinter vans in the US, has already started taking
deliveries of the new Sprinter, which will be imported from Spain and
eventually built at the Chrysler truck plant in Canada.
