<small>Alfa Romeo MiTo for Maserati - Click above for high-res image gallery</small></strong></em></div>
<br />
If you're dropping off a six-figure Italian exotic at the dealership for service, you expect to be loaned something special in return, right? That's why Fiat supplied Ferrari with a run of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/15/f430-in-the-shop-fiat-providing-limited-edition-500-rental/">special-edition 500</a>s for use in their European service network. (Heck, they even <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/09/09/officially-official-fiat-confirms-abarth-695-tributo-ferrari/">produced some for public consumption</a>.) Now its classy kid sister is following suite with a special loaner car of its own.<br />
<br />
Produced in a limited run of 100 units, these specially-prepared <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/category/alfa-romeo">Alfa Romeo</a> MiTos will be dispatched to <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/maserati">Maserati</a> dealers across Europe. Each is distinguished from the average MiTo by its Maserati Blu Oceano paint, special plaque on the center console and "Alfa Romeo for Maserati" sill plate. The special edition Alfa also comes equipped with top-of-the-range 170-horsepower, 1.4-liter MultiAir turbo engine, 18-inch wheels and rear spoiler, along with an interior decked out in sumptuous Pelle Frau leather and all the electronic bells and whistles on offer.<br />
<br />
After Maserati gave Alfa the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/tag/8c">8C Competizione</a>, it's nice that Alfa - now under the same leadership as Maserati - can give a little something back. Details in the press release after the jump.<br />
