Every car that is almost a racing is a superb car. This also exists in the Carrera GT case. Respect Porsche, respect carrera GT. :)

Yeah, I'd think SOME of them would goto the European market, though more than half are coming to America. We're such gluttons :evil:
It IS a sweet car, probably the best performing Porsche yet. It looks like almost nothing else before it, whcih I admire too.

@ Mallon : No i just don't like the most 911 and 996 models, , can't do anything about it ......just not my taste they are not special enough!
This Carrera GT is more brutal!
Look : If you watch to a nose of a car , it tells you something ,
like : watch at the nose of a 156GTA , he told me : GRR I'M THE FASTEST , COME ON IF ya thINK you'll beat me !! <---- And that is something i like! GREAT DESIGN/
At that 911 and 996 Porsche i miss that a bit! But the new Carrera GT , = looking much more agressive and looks better!!
Don't ya guys have the same? The lights of the car are his eye's and the whole nose of the car is a face! , The face can be angry , happy ect. I LIKE ANGRY faces! GTA , BRERA!! ect.
And for WHITE-NIGHT Yes i love Italian cars!
But remember : I love enough Japanese , german , and even swedish CarS!!
But i just love that Italian style !! Think many people love that Italian designed cars to!

i do respect your opinion guys but ,
I reallyu don't know or ya guys are right!
Because is the german quality better that the Italians? 330Ci vs. GTA WIN for GTA! ?!?!
new 156 i really don't think a BMW 320i/ or VW have a higher quality anymore!
Don't ya guys think that that's only THE NAME , where you talking about? because Fiat , Alfa Romeo in early years were indeed if you compare them less reliable and the quality was quite much lower!
But were in 2003 now , come on? I don''t think you can feel the dirffrence!

Italian manufacturers have been improved, but there's still a difference! You can read that in every car magazine!

Aug 06, 2003, 6:07 PM
that's not right Jim!
I read in every magazine , and i hear the poeple what thay say on TV , that the diffrence is closed! ,
See Top gear magazine and LISTEN! GTAvs. 330Ci! GTA WINS!!
AND JIM HELLO? GTA = ITALIAN!!
your absolutly not right! cannot explain , but you really can't SAY ALL Italian Cars!
There are MUCH italian cars who are less better than German cars!
BUt there are MUCh Italian cars who BEAT a german car!
New 156 2.0JTS vs. Passat 2.0!
Mayb. it's hard for y guys , but yeah your right : Than Italians are in EVERYTHING THE BEST! : Styling , interior styling , racing , durability , reliability ,
And with the JTS engine's he almost uses NON fuel anymore!! just excelent cars!!!
THEY ARE THE BEST!!: ITALIA FOR EVER!
Greetz : Danny!

NO THEY ARE NOT THE BEST!!!
Look, I don't know what happens to your country, but here, German cars are way better than Italians! That's what all magazines write, that's what all my relatives and friends say, that's what car enthusiasts say, and that's what even people with Italian cars say! They all keep saying that their cars break down, they have continuous electrical and mechanical problems and the accessories don't work! One of my closest friends has an Alfa Romeo and the Speedometer does not work! He also has a Punto and the power windows had a failure within the first year! Many other people and friends of my father with italian cars tell him that they go every month to the garage because something gets broken or doesn't work!! I'm not kidding, that's the truth here!!
And what? The GTA is better than the 330Ci? LLLOOOOLLL!!! I'M LAUGHING MY FCKNG ASS OFF!!!!!!!!!! I'll tell you what: take both of those cars and come back again in 10 years!! The GTA will be a piece of junk, whereas the 330Ci will be running as new!!
PS: That new JTS engine is total crap. I know that the fuel economy is good, but the engine itself is weak. Some magazines tested it here in 3 different cars (GTV, 147, 156) and ALL THREE TIMES they found that it couldn't give more than 150PS (it's supposed to be 165PS...) and they wrote that it's insufficient and lacks torque. They even wrote that the old 2.0 TS engine was better...

Aug 10, 2003, 10:17 PM
JTS engine , developed with MG is Really fantastic!! Here in The Netherlands the've even tested a 2.0 JTS with 170HP!! ( VERY RElaible btw! )
I think your country with a quite much lower economy driving to much OLD alfa's yeah that Alfa's Aren't that good as a BMW! BUT ALFA CLOSED THE CAB!!
Don't believe me ? I got proof : http://www.alfa156.net/dls.html
Look for this movie!!
people with much more experience than you ever could imagine say that The quality is SUper , And performance is super , Driveabilty SUPER!! ect. ect. And he does LOOK good , better than those BMW's! Faster than a 330Ci! with RWD! damn must be VERY GOOD than!!
NO way!! Maybe if you now take a 10 year old Alfa and a 10 year old BMW YESSSSSSSSS than you Are MAYBE right the BMW is better!
But if you fair , Take a look at your road!
Put NOW the latest GTA and a 330Ci together drive same distance with it in 10 years!
AND drive in the RAIN!!! WE WILL SEE!!!!
ALFA LOOKS AND DRIVE AS NEW , MAYBE the BMW drive as new too , but Looks like nothing anymore!! proberly you can bring him to the junkyard because the body is full with rust!!
Welcome in 2003!! i'm talking about the LATEST Alfa's, the quality of those german ugly looking steal on 4 wheels is that much better than a Alfa!!!!!! EVERYONE SAY THAT!!
must look more Tv programs or move to England , Netherlands , even Germany , Italia!! there and over the rest of the world i guess , they are talking the true!
Why is Alfa and Fiat running so bad and have their financial crisis??
Because people of you who are KEEPING their old name like rust and unrelaibility by Alfa Romeo and Fiat! I can tell you 1 thing!! BULLSHIT!! :evil:
Come to my country and i'll show you a Alfa Romeo 155 1.8TS 8v Lusso from 1992
- Electric window's
- Electric mirrors
- Electric and automatic heat in the mirrors!
WE not have 1 problem with the car! we have the car now almost 7 years!
CAN YOU FIND A CAR FROM 11 YEARS OLD WITH ORIGINAL EXHAUST!??!?!?
Uses 0.0 oil????
Every guy i speak over their Alfa , are saying this : first when i choose to drive Alfa, it was a really hard decission to me , i asked much people about their reliabilty ec. they said , no don't take the Alfa!!
Now because he felt in love at the design of the 156! he bought him! He said , I wasn't that happy now , if i drove a german or Japanese car!!
He NEVER EVER got problems with it!!!
greetz : DAnny , hope u understand now check the url , and u will find out! and btw do i have to get 100 people on this forum who drive a 156?? i'll let you hear their stories about the 156?? PLEASE! Don't start about that Alfa wannebe BMW's than if you don't want to get them mad :)

Fine, fine, I'm not gonna argue about this anymore. It's useless. I've done this quite a few times, and not only in the forum...
Anyway, if you wanna buy your Italian car, do it. I'll never criticise you about that. BUT also I don't want YOU to criticise me when I buy my German (or Japanese) car. Each of us with his own opinion.
I want to be friends here, ok? :roll: :)
So let's just forget about all that crap. Today, all cars have their own value...
Besides, we've gone too far off-topic. Send me a PM if you want anything.
