Did you know that modern cruise control was invented in 1948 by a mechanical engineer named Ralph Teetor and was first implemented 10 years later in Chrysler Corporation's luxury auto brand Imperial? Cruise control as we know it is designed to maintain a continuous speed in highway traffic.

Ciao Alfisti:

Unfortunately we have to postpone the Picnic Tour scheduled for Saturday June 2. The weather forecast looks pretty grim calling for morning showers developing into steady rain in the afternoon ... certainly not picnic or top down driving weather.

June tends to be a busy month so with that in mind, we'd like to get feedback on your availability for the remaining Saturdays in June. If we can't get a representative group together, we can reschedule the picnic later in the fall.

We will keep you updated.

Two new editions of 2 popular Italian luxury vehicles made their debut at the New York International Auto Show in NYC: the Alfa Romeo Giulia Nero Edizione and the Alfa Romeo Stelvio Nero Edizione! Both of these models were the talk of the showroom floor at the Javits Center because of the darkened design cues that you can plainly see from the Nero Edizione Package. They give some exclusive accents to the Giulia and Stelvio models that have the 280-horsepower 2.0L turbocharged engine under the hood.

Ramsey Alfa Romeo will be hosting an Alfa Romeo Owners Club trip the West Point Military Museum on Saturday April 21, where we’ll all drive through scenic Rockland and Orange County.

We’ll all be meeting at our showroom at 10 am to get the route details and will depart at 11 am for the West Point Military Museum. There's plenty of parking available, no security check and historically significant US Military Academy, US Army & Profession of Arms artifacts.

Blind spot monitoring is designed to work as a second set of eyes that see what yours might not necessarily be able to without turning around & taking your eye off the road in front of you. Being optional in select Alfa Romeo models including the Stelvio & Giulia and standard in the Quadrifoglio versions of both, the blind spot monitoring system warns you when a vehicle or another object is traveling in your vehicle’s blind spot on either side.

It's been 32 years since Alfa Romeo has participated in a Formula One season, but we’re back in the saddle as our brand is teaming up with Sauber to present the C37! It’s ready to compete in the 2018 F1 season and we see it as being a winner!

We know that there’s only one choice when it comes to an Italian sports car that both thrills on the road and with the amenities that you can get: the Alfa Romeo 4C. However, there are 2 different versions that you can choose from: the Coupe 2-door car and the Spider 2-door roadster. Check out the key differences and the similarities of these 2 models.

Ramsey Alfa Romeo is so excited that the Alfa Romeo Giulia has been named Motor Trend’s 2018 Car of the Year®! This award applies to every trim including the Alfa Romeo Giulia, Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti and Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. The luxury sedan beat out a tight field of 7 other finalists of popular vehicles in the North New Jersey area because of the overall driving experience it gave judges. Read all about why the Giulia won this prestigious accolade.

We previously spoke about all of the accolades that the Alfa Romeo Giulia has earned. Now, there’s one more that’s so key especially if you’re looking to drive this sedan with your loved ones: IIHS Top Safety Pick+. The IIHS, or Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, has been giving out its Top Safety Pick award since 2006 and naming those that provide even more peace of mind as Top Safety Pick+ winners since 2013.

The Alfa Romeo Owners Club (AROC) holds events throughout the US to celebrate the heritage of our Italian luxury car brand. We at Ramsey Alfa Romeo are proud to have held an AROC Heritage Event earlier this month at our dealership on Saturday October 21, 2017. See the video showcases highlights from the festivities.
