My favourite cars of other Marques

[Persimmon 42]

Some of my favourite cars include these ...

First of is a picture of me and the wonderful Maserati A6 GCS Monofaro from 1947

This was taken before the start of the Mille Miglia last year.

Then it has to be Lamborghini

The fantastic 350 GT, the first production Lamborghini ever and

the sensational Muira S

Two great cars

My son's favourite is the new McLaren MP4 -12C

Well as you can see he loves that car

What do other members like ??

Huh, it's easy to list some super-cars marques, I love Lamborghini and Maserati for that matter, but it's not easy to pick something among affordable cars domain that I'll consider instead of Alfa. Maybe Honda, I am not sure...

[charlee 314]

I always liked Saab. They have something special... But not the later Vectras. It's sad that it's bankrupt.

[Persimmon 42]

I thought this was about cars we really like.....

Sorry if I was going to buy a Honda ...it would be a motor bike.

As for Saab... well its the end of the road for them following the financial bankruptsy so those dreams are over.

If I could not have a Alfa I would want a Lambo, Maserati or Ferrari.

I aim high !!

[charlee 314]

Definitely a Maserati!

[Paso 239]

Saab, yes, I love them, old Aero series...

[archialfa 3]

Maserati Khamsin and Citroen DS Cabrio!

[charlee 314]

Saab, yes, I love them, old Aero series...

They had something special. Very similar to Alfas...

[charlee 314]

I'd really like a Maserati GranSport. You can get it cheap, but running costs are astronomical.

[Spidahman 3]

Lotus Super 7.

I respect Porsche very much, but I'll never drive one. I have friends with GT2/3 and they are scary fast, but it's not "me". I think I have a problem with German cars in general.

[archialfa 3]

I have a thing for Maseratis...

Just imagine to drive one of those in 1972...

[archialfa 3]

Well, I can imagine driving NOW!

[spiderman-GR. 3]

as the years passing, i always appreciate the 911 Porsche. i 've heard so much about 911, good and bad.

3months ago, i had the opportunity to test a friend's of mine 911 997 (2002) with Acrapovitch exhausts and coilovers.

this is the best car ever driven by me. fast enough (not amazed by that, in respect with my Tb with 1.3bars, but faster), with great response in every situation. like a big kart. very precise.

it's the only car i ever drive on a mountain for first time witch made me have a so good feeling with it, that in 10minutes i turned off everything electronic thing. only engine, gear, chassis and ABS. Great car . i could say, that, there is no way for alfa romeo to construct a car such focused to the driver as the 911 of the last 15years.....unfortunately.

after that, i ve planed to shell one of my 916's, and replace her with a 911.

but, for now, it's difficult. i guess that i need 1year or so for doing that.

the 911, left me the sensation that is better than the Cayman. more....car.

Respect.

i could say, that, there is no way for alfa romeo to construct a car such focused to the driver as the 911 of the last 15years.....unfortunately.

We'll see how 4C goes in that respect...

Alfa needs to go back to basics, otherwise they'll just turn into Seat.

It seems to me that Fiat doesn't know what to do. Or doesn't want. The result is the same...

[spiderman-GR. 3]

..

the 4c, today, does not exist.

it was not present at the Geneva Show.

in any case, this car, is not comparable to the 911. typically or not.

the elise is the canditate to compete with 4c.

untill porsche release it's own small /lightweight /2-seater/ coupe/ downsized..(they say about 2years from now).

for me, alfa romeo has stopped being an alfa romeo after the 156 era.

i consider the 156, the last true alfa romeo.

the brera/mito etc, are nice cars, but i would never spend money to have them.

the great competitor for every new alfa romeo, is the car to replace..

the brera had the gtv, the 159 had the 156....bad luck.
