Where Alfa's go to die

They never sold a large number of them in the first place, but using your logic the best car ever sold would be the Toyota Camry.

Camry's a well built car...

And a Porsche to a Camry owner is probably a POS on many levels. So what's the point? Alfa's are great cars. Have you ever driven one? Or have you ever wondered why some of the engines are twin-plug? Think about that point.

My old Spider...

I like Alfas and Lancias(I saw a couple in the garage pics), but the Alfas I had first-hand experience with left alot to be desired in the QA department. In HS, my buddies' brand-new Spyder had a myriad of electrical gremlins which were never truly sorted--he ended up trading it on a 300ZX TT within a year, and after college another buddy bought a 164S (or was it 146)? One of the last models imported--awesome car,I loved the interior, and it was smooth as silk driving but electrical problems were plentiful once again, he traded it on an M3, after his sunroof became stuck open for the third time.

Jeremy I had a Spyder myself. It was cream colored. Nice car but drove like a truck next to the 911. I wish I still had it actually....hell I wish I had all 48 of my old cars back!

Friend of mine had a GTV, thing was always breaking down. I've also seen a few spiders up close and wasnt impressed...

Then again, I'm just a German car elitist...
