2002 Alfa Romeo 156 Reviews, Pricing & Specs





















































What owners say
"Overall, drivers find the 2002 Alfa Romeo 156 to be a stylish and enjoyable car, especially praising its engine sound and handling. Many appreciate its responsive performance and attractive design. However, higher insurance costs and maintenance expenses are common concerns, along with some issues related to build quality."
The most important thing about a car, is that it keeps you smiling, and my Alfa does just that. I love it - a great drive, still gorgeous and maintainance is low. Would buy one again, if it was still made. update: I would be a Giulietta today the 175BHP version with the sports-package, but I am still very happy with my 156, despite the rising maintenance cost, but those are predicitable on a 10 years old car with 200K on the clock.
February 18, 2010A true driver's car. Very rewarding if you treat her nice ;-)
June 23, 2008Great Car, it runs smooth, steering wheel shift change excellent, comes with alarm, MOMO leather seats, big sunroof, midsize trunk, 4 wheel disc brakes with ABS and EBD, 2.0L DOHC, variable valve timing... lots of extras and fun...

May 15, 2008good,reliable family car that looks sexy too!!! Very responsive,nice interior and plenty of room.
January 19, 2008have only owned the car a few months but can say i enjoy driving it, it pulls really well and corners great, i'll race anyone, comfy seats, tho rear leg room not that great, hasn't let me down yet (touch wood) and as we all know, the italians know how to style a car, its beautiful..
November 2, 2011Pure Italian sex, you wont see anything with a bigger rear spoiler without it lookig stupid. Good performance without paying stupid insurance premiums. Build quality is a little shoddy. Good fuel consumption. Leather interior to do for with the badge on the back of the seats, beautiful alloy wheels, as standard.
November 5, 2009Excellent condition except front 2 tires are cracked. No damage ,oil leaking .no accidents only 61700 kilometres. Import from Japan. Semi automatic twin spark engine.
August 21, 2023I had the 156 GTA (3.2 V6) when it was all working properly this car was epic. sadly, it lived down to its reputation and spent many a day in the Alfa dealership haveing brake discs, steering column, front anti-roll bar, brake calipers... etc replaced. When it worked tho, boy what a car. 0-60 in 6 secs and it made a noise like you wouldn't believe. I'd have another one tomorrow...
October 21, 2008I owned a 2002 Alfa Romeo 156 JTS 5 speed, this car handles great, brakes well and looks really good, has many features but the finish is very 'plasticy' The only thing i didn't like about the car was cost of repairing it! Any little thing would cost nothing under $100
August 16, 2008The amazing sound of the V6 engine makes this car worth the money. It looks great and with the sport chassis it also handles very good. The performance isn't outstanding but it's fast enough. Insurence costs way too much. That sucks.
