PLUS he is riding on 175 tires!!! i missed the older alfas. they're truly intoxicating to drive and the "connection" with the machine is so obvious. that's how i ended in an alfa 33 with just one test drive and i looked no other. the fun factor outstripped all other idiosyncrocies it gives me. and of course, the temperature guage fluctuates. i have no regrets. but hardcore friends of mine owned 2 of these in succession.</blockquote>
