If you hold an appreciation or even better yet, a passion for Alfa Romeos large and small, old and new, this is the place and group of people for you. The Alfa Romeo Association (ARA) was founded in 1958 by a group of Alfa Romeo enthusiasts who loved their cars and drove them daily; this still applies to many of our current members and their associates. The ARA is based in Northern California, the United States, but we are proud to attract members from all over the globe who share the same passion for Alfa Romeos.
