The famous Italian sports car brand has come on by leaps and bounds in recent years, shaking off a reputation for rust and poor build quality. The company, now owned by Fiat, was founded in 1907 by the Milanese Cavaliere Ugo Stella. In 1916 it was taken over by Nicolo Romeo and the name was changed to Alfa Romeo. Alfa Romeo has a prestigeous history in racing winning many famous races including the Mille Miglia, Formula 1 and Le Mans with famous drivers including Juan Manuel Fangio and Enzo Ferrari. The Alfa Romeo Spider famously made an appearance in the film, 'The Graduate' starring Dustin Hoffman and Anne Bancroft. Alfa Romeo styling has always been cutting edge and even being swallowed by Fiat has not diminished the styling of the cars, which is often outsourced to design houses such as Pininfarina.
