The &#039;&#039;&#039;Alfa Romeo 159&#039;&#039;&#039; is a compact executive car produced by the Italian manufacturer [[Alfa Romeo]] since 2005.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 159 was introduced in production form at the 2005 [[Salon International de l&#039;Auto|Geneva Motor Show]] as a replacement for the successful [[Alfa Romeo 156]].  The [[Giorgetto Giugiaro|Giugiaro]]-designed sedan uses the [[GM/Fiat Premium platform]], shared with the [[Alfa Romeo Brera|Brera]], [[Alfa Romeo Spyder|Spyder]], and [[Alfa Romeo Kamal|Kamal]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stylistically, the 159 is designed to share features with the [[Maserati Quattroporte]] introduced in 2004. The 159 is available with either [[front-wheel drive|front]] or [[four-wheel drive]], called Q4. AWD system utilises Torsen type C twin differential. AWD is only available with 3.2 L V6 engine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A [[Sportwagon]] variant was introduced at the [[Salon International de l&#039;Auto|Geneva Motor Show]] in 2006. In 2007, Alfa Romeo will release a GTA variant with a 4.2&amp;amp;nbsp;L 450+ hp Maserati [[V8]] [[petrol engine]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Recent Changes===&lt;br /&gt;
* For MY 2009, the 159 receives a very subtle facelift.[http://www.motorauthority.com/news/sedans/alfa-romeo-facelifts-159-sedan-and-wagon/]&lt;br /&gt;

The &#039;&#039;&#039;Alfa Romeo 159&#039;&#039;&#039; is a compact executive car produced by the Italian manufacturer [[Alfa Romeo]] since 2005.  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The 159 was introduced in production form at the 2005 [[Salon International de l&#039;Auto|Geneva Motor Show]] as a replacement for the successful [[Alfa Romeo 156]].  The [[Giorgetto Giugiaro|Giugiaro]]-designed sedan uses the [[GM/Fiat Premium platform]], shared with the [[Alfa Romeo Brera|Brera]], [[Alfa Romeo Spyder|Spyder]], and [[Alfa Romeo Kamal|Kamal]]. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Stylistically, the 159 is designed to share features with the [[Maserati Quattroporte]] introduced in 2004. The 159 is available with either [[front-wheel drive|front]] or [[four-wheel drive]], called Q4. AWD system utilises Torsen type C twin differential. AWD is only available with 3.2 L V6 engine.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A [[Sportwagon]] variant was introduced at the [[Salon International de l&#039;Auto|Geneva Motor Show]] in 2006. In 2007, Alfa Romeo will release a GTA variant with a 4.2&amp;amp;nbsp;L 450+ hp Maserati [[V8]] [[petrol engine]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Recent Changes===&lt;br /&gt;
* For MY 2009, the 159 receives a very subtle facelift.[http://www.motorauthority.com/news/sedans/alfa-romeo-facelifts-159-sedan-and-wagon/]&lt;br /&gt;
