21.06.2004 First seen a couple of months ago at the Bangkok Motor Show, Alfa Romeo's Thailand importer has now introduced the accessory-laden '156 Speciale II'

Alfa Romeo Thailand have launched a new edition of the 156, known as the 'Speciale II' for the local market.

This revised, accessory-laden 156, was previewed successfully earlier this year at the 25th Bangkok International Motor Show.

Alfa Romeo have decided not to present the facelifted 156 to the Thai market yet, partially due to local fuel issues pertaining to the JTD engine range, so Thai Prestige Auto Sales, the local Alfa Romeo distributor, has now introduced a second special edition 156 Selespeed, a 'phase II' model, which goes under the name of the 156 Speciale II. 

The launch of Speciale II
attracted a great deal of national media coverage, largely
due to a somewhat controversial fashion show by Playboy models. 

The Alfa Romeo 156 Speciale II is equipped with additional accessories to further enhance appeal and emphasize its sporting heritage. 

Xenon headlights, original Alfa Romeo aero parts,
Kevlar interior trim finishings, 17-inch alloy wheels shod with 215/45ZR17 tyres, aluminum door lock pins embossed with the AR logo, and stainless steel door sills are among the extras.

The 156 Speciale II will have a local market retail price of 2,078,000THB.
