Very Nice Peter. Maybe you need a white Berlina to complete the patriotic theme. 
Looking forward to meeting them and you in person, as soon as my baby is out of the shop and I can make a road trip to the Hill Country.

 I probably need to start this first before I even consider adding a sedan.....A Berlina would be great, I love these cars, but I have really always wanted a Giulia.....for some reason white is not my color though....Whatever the final color trio would be, I'm sure it's patriotic to some country in the world 
I hope you get your nose job done soon! Let me know whenever you're up here, maybe we can meet!!

I'm thinking that a good Alfetta sedan (early) would be funner.

I know that's not a word!
