I want to buy an Alfa Romeo spider is there an Alfa enthusiast out there that

can help me? I like these cars, but I've never owned an Alfa, are they reliable? What year should I buy? I'm looking from mid 80's and up since I prefer the fuel injection and I'm not to fond of carburetors.

What recommendation can you give me? What's maintenance like? Is it pricey? Timing chain or belt? What can you tell me? Thank you
