Even though many modern Alfa Romeos are front-wheel drive, I'm not really deterred by that. Or as someone called it, "wrong-wheel drive." I'm sure if the car can still perform sweetly with the configuration it has, then that's not a lot of reason to fret. Their recent motorsports acheivements have been their touring car efforts. There can still be sportiness to these cars regardless. You can probably make this argument then- these are some of the boldest FWD rides in the world.
So THAT is the 159 (Post #47 by YSSMAN)? I don't care what anyone says, but that 159 is style at its sharpest and cleanest. It does look a bit too conceptual (I hardly ever complain about a car with this statement), but this is a sharp number. And let's not forget about Alfa Red ("Alfa Rosso" or maybe "Rosso Alfa" for Italian types. I think Italian is kind of like Spanish, so I don't know for sure), which is just as important a color as Ferrari Red/Rosso Ferrari. This burgundy-like color to the top picture of Post #47 is VERY nice. It almost reminded me of the car color I wanted a an F-Body Camaro when I was growing up as a car fan. BEAUTIFUL color. I love red or blue with most cars.
I will actually give Alfa Romeo a chance because I'm a nice guy and love cars. I'm sure there are Alfa Romeo fans here in the States who would love to have some Alfa Romeos in their garages or parked outside their house. Some may even race old Alfa Romeos in SCCA competition. Give Alfa Romeo a chance. Hate them. Love them. Just don't talk about them like they have no place in America, much less making this stupid argument: "America has too many car companies already." Never is there a such thing as too many car companies. That's like saying America has too many universities and don't need any new ones.
Out of 100%, what percentage would you give Alfa Romeo in that they become successful in five years or less in America?
