GBudhelix Posted August 19, 2008 Report Share Posted August 19, 2008 Hi folks! I've been a member for a while now but this is my first post here at RWG. I've spent most of my time at RG but have gotten a little tired of all the BS posts there and have come here looking for more intelligent on-topic conversation. I'm sure I'll find it here. Some of you will recognize me from RG and the GTGs we've had and I'm looking forward to making more good freinds. Cheers. By the way, anyone have a PAM 231 they'd sell me?

If only I had a garage and some $$$ back in the early 80ies I could have keep my Giulia Super 1600 from 1973 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have one Alfa at the moment, a '69 1750 GTV that I've owned since 1988. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I only have one Alfa at the moment, a '69 1750 GTV that I've owned since 1988. Yes, they drove very nicely. Wow, a 1750 is really cool. I'm "obliged" to have only one too. After 5 33 (from 86 to 2002) I have a 166 now. I'm curious to see what they will come with in a couple of years. Anyway, congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really are an Alfista! I owned a 164. What engine does your 166 have? I also like the Alfa 33. Unfortunately, they were never imported into the USA. In fact Alfa stopped selling cars here in 1995. They keep promising to return and have (sort of) with importing a few 8C Competeziones. The story is that they will be back fully in 2010 with the Brera, new Spider, new 159 and/or 168. I also hope they will sell the new Mi.To here as well. Until then I will have to be satified with my 40 year old GTV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 8C is incredible. I drove a friend's 164, they were great too. Unfortunately I have the Turbo Diesel (JTD - 2.4). I hope the next one will be the V6 You're a lucky man you know. A 40 year old Alfa is something very special. Nothing will ever get close to the music of their engines anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
