Alfa Romeo 164

The Alfa Romeo 164 (Type 164) is an executive car produced by the Italian automaker Alfa Romeo from 1987 to 1998.

The 164 was rebadged as the 168 for the Hong Kong and Malaysian markets, as the number "164" had a very negative connotation (In Chinese it is a homophone to "一路死" — all the way to death), and "168" has quite the opposite ("一路發" — all the way to prosperity).
