I was driving down State today and saw a white Spider from far away.. I decided to check it out and saw that it's a European car repair shop of some sort. I'll go back tomorrow when they're open.
The brown GTV was at a local junkyard for quite some time, I guess they bought it.
The white Spider I originally saw:
A black GTV:
I think the car to the right of the black MG under the cover is an S3 Spider.

Looks like a GTV above the MG and behind the 928.

Yeah, I know. Now that I look at the pictures closer, I think there's another one under the cover:
Expect more pictures tomorrow.

J - I had a good laugh, maybe you see an "attractive lady" or "a well coifed women" maybe even a "mature women" but refering to someone you want to converse with, in the third person, as "this older women" sounds wet behind the ears. LOL

Alfa Spotting Hwy 5 South of Portland Sat, Jan. 28
On my way to Portland Airport from an Oregon Coast trip, spotted this beauty of a Spider! I was in a rental car so my enthusiasm was probably taken as drug induced behavior...
The rains came, yet the Spider endured! Does it belong to anyone on the BB?

Today (Saturday), I took the spider out for a nice thrashing and Alfa hunting as well. I was out about 2 hours and saw NO alfas or anything italian for that matter. Oh well. On our way across the bay in the tan 164LS, we saw a Red 164L in Pacifica(4pm), Ca at Ace Hardware on San Pedro Blvd and we filled up the tank in the LS and saw it turn onto highway 1 north. We couldn't catch up as the red light gods were frowning upon us...b*stards! He definitely saw us though. Anyone on this thread?? Also, on 880, around 4:45pm, we saw a red S3 spider with a black bra on.

GTV on 580E last night
Passed another GTV on 580E past the Grand Avenue exit in San Leandro last night around 7:35. I was in the silver '74 GTV. Anyone on the board? Look forward to seeing you again.

I saw this 164S in downtown SLC this morning. It has Colorado plates. I'm not sure if it's a car that was brought here from Colorado, or if it's somebody visiting. I've never seen it before. Anybody recognise it?

Alfa drivers of I-5, where were you?
Last week Scuderia Non Originale's world headquarters moved from Santa Clara, California, to Sequim, Washington. From Tuesday, Feb 7 through Thursday the 9th, this rig was slowly working its way 940 miles north, mostly up I-5. We were traveling at, or not much above, the 55 mph trailer speed limit. Along the way the entire world passed us.
The only Alfa I saw the entire trip was about two blocks from my (former) house, as we began our trip. It was the grey GTV6 that swooped past me, then turned right onto Reed St.
I'm sorry to report that sports car lovers were all somewhere else during our journey. We saw a random Miata and Porsche, but nothing of interest.
Got to brag on the Jeep, though. Its diesel engine made 20 mpg while hauling two heavier than air adults, a ton of stuff, and car with trailer. And yes, we did roll the car back a bit before leaving, to take some weight off the tongue.

I think these guys were a kind of combined FBI and Sheriff, someone here probably knows better... They are hanging out on the foot traffic only lovely main street of Cortina.

The Polizia is the federal police. The Carabinieri is the military police.
