Alfa Romeos don't always have the best resale value. However, you'll also spend a lot less on the 159 Sedan compared to other luxury models.Stability can be a bit rough on roads of lesser quality. The 2011 Alfa Romeo 159 is much steadier on well-constructed highway roads as compared to pothole-filled city streets.The 159's storage spaces are plentiful, but aren't very practical- especially the door storage. The backseat is comfortable, but head room is constricted and leg room isn't quite large enough if there's a tall person in the driver's seat. There's a quirky ski hatch behind the center armrest, but the opening is narrow, and boot access is snug.
