Perdon a mi, padre

I have sinned. Wanted something different so I bought an Alfa.

I've always loved Alfa Romeo's. I'm sure that will be a lot of fun to drive.

I really like the way it drives. The steering is on the light and communicative side. The motor has a lot of pull. If I am not careful, I will end up getting a ticket with this car. It is just fun as hell to drive!

Congrats! My daily has been a Giulia for a few years and I've absolutely loved it. Nothing serious has gone wrong with it, either, which is nice (and a little surprising).

I used to do that with my 930s. Midnight runs when it is nice and cool for better boost. Now, we have Solo bikes out at night!

Agree.

Exhaust note? Did Alfa bother with that? Toyota, and I have owned a bunch, all sound like they can't be bothered.
