Me neither. But those old ass cars can become quite expensive.

I see it as a long term project. You have to invest if you want to make it purr like a kitten.

By the way, I own an Alfa Romeo so I know what the stakes are.

I've owned a Giulietta. No problems.

My whip is going to look like this at the end of next year.

I don't have any love for VW these days. They haven't produced anything buzz worthy (pun intended) in the last few years.

It's depressing to think that the next generation will never really what it's like to drive a proper car.It sickens me that this is what modern cars have become:
2000 - Ford Puma
2024 - Ford Puma
]
1999 - Mitsubishi Eclipse
2024 - Mitsubishi Eclipse
1990 - Ford Fiesta
2024 - Ford Fiesta
Everything is so beige.

It probably nestles in the Ralph Lauren collection.

Ach, my ol' baby is going in for major surgery, first major thing on my gorgeous 2018 Stinger GT2. Got smacked in the butt by a huge arse Volvo driver who apparently was looking at the phone. I would just not know what to replace this with, can't find anything in price range with similar specs + buttloads of cargo space + actually starts at -35C.. Insurance say they would cover 36K Euro if it is totalled, but, I simply can't find anything that would match it. New Stingers are hard to come by here unfortunately (Sweden). :\

Eh, not sure because Toyota are testing small 2 litre turbo engines putting out 447KW (600Hp). High power but low on torque so they might add electric motors to compensate.
There are some upsides to a smaller hybrid engine in terms of fuel efficiency, packaging and power delivery thanks to the electric motors assisting in providing that instant boost off power down low in the rev range along.
It's not all bad.
Didn't see this before but it looks like the electric Porsche 718 is having issues. It's probably going to be delayed. (Admittedly if I were to get a Boxster I'd be looking at something gas powered.)

Beautiful car.
Sucks you were in an accident. Using a phone while driving should be an automatic loss of drivers license for 12 months IMO.
Maybe this is something for you. Not sure if the cargo space is as big though. But similar styling (fastback while I love)
They are very rare around here. I have seen one other than mine.

TT & VTG arent that bad, Audi does it pretty good in their 4.0TT offerings.
Hybrid has been amaze in my q7 55, blasting but properly not doing anything for the environment.

So sorry, men. If you can't find that look for A4/A6 or BMW 5 limousines, they usually have pretty good offerings due to not being as rare as a Stinger.Ach, my ol' baby is going in for major surgery, first major thing on my gorgeous 2018 Stinger GT2.

I was always surprised how deep those limousines go and you can usually stick ski through the middle console of the back seat.
