When you come to NY, you're welcome to drive my "imitation" GTV and you can decide for yourself.
Loosen up Gen. I was only poking fun. You have certainly slung enough to have gotten under people's skin. You can dish it out but can't take it?

I know Alfas are about the driving. When referring to older Alfas though, IMO authenticity is important. If I drop a 2-liter in my GTV I would be adding to its prowess yet taking away from its authenticity. I personally would not add emblems to make it look like another model. But that's must me.
