Jason M.\u2019s Alfa Romeo without question belongs in the latter camp. \u201cI wasn\u2019t even in the market for a car,\u201d he recalled. \u201cThen I saw it on Facebook and just thought, \u2018Wow.\u2019\u201d And the rest is history.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-244\" src=\"http:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-6-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"Alfa 6\" width=\"762\" height=\"505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-6-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-6-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-6-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-6-1536x1017.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-6-2048x1356.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 762px) 100vw, 762px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not a car for gearheads with a penchant for modern amenities, \u201cit\u2019s very much a no-frills car. It\u2019s made of really high-end, lightweight materials that are usually reserved for much more expensive cars; there are a lot of elements that hearken back to old-school design,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-245\" src=\"http:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-4-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"Alfa 4\" width=\"762\" height=\"505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-4-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-4-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-4-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-4-1536x1017.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-4-2048x1356.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 762px) 100vw, 762px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Since it\u2019s missing the aforementioned creature comforts, \u201cit\u2019s not really built for road tripping.\u201d It is, however, perfect for shorter joyrides and local getaways. Jason&#8217;s\u00a0driven it around Northern New Jersey and New York, and his renters have clocked some miles around the Tri-State area. \u201cPeople often take it for a weekend getaway. A few have taken it to the Hamptons, another upstate, and another to Philly,\u201d he recalls.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-246\" src=\"http:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-2-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"Alfa 2\" width=\"762\" height=\"505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-2-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-2-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-2-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-2-1536x1017.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-2-2048x1356.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 762px) 100vw, 762px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cMost renters are car enthusiasts; some have been in the market for one and just wanted to try it out for a few days before committing.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-247\" src=\"http:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-3-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"Alfa 3\" width=\"762\" height=\"505\" srcset=\"https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-3-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-3-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-3-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-3-1536x1017.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/turo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/12\/Alfa-3-2048x1356.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 762px) 100vw, 762px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u201cA big car fanatic\u201d himself, Jason saw the value in the investment immediately.
