I would never by a Spider off ebay, unless it was black, there was at least one bullitt hole in the windshield and a couple hundred parts were missing from it...but you know everybody has different tastes. |

When I got mine (private sale) it had a couple of those bullet hole stickers on the back next to the licence plate mount.
Would that count?

It's considered much cooler to have the real thing, except, it seems, by the cops. They had a lot of questions, made few phone calls, and overall, I got the impression that they don't like people driving cars around with bullitt holes in the windshield.

makes me proud to hear the compliments of 'Tito's' spider. All I can say is that I am still astonished at just how phenomenal Tito's silver spider is and I am a very passionate owner. I have taken extremely good care of it. I will probably keep that car forever.  while some other notable cars I own will go someday!
I do like the lime green spider. not crazy about the rims, the look of original 'daytona's' from Cromodora look much better - or repro's for that matter. Looks really cool though.

what are you guys talking about that is one of the best looking spider i have ever seen than GREEN is so cool!!!!!!! and the chrome trim and top really complement it, true its not original and prob not worth the 22,000 but its a great looking spider take the sticker off the nose and it will be complete.
i think this could be the next color of my spider . or Lamborghini Miura green!
remember one thing these are alfas not ferrari's, no matter how much cash you invest theyr still alfas (well really cool loking ones)-remember alfas that look the worst, run the best-

The grren eBay car doesn't even come close to your car. If this car get the $22K asking price (which I highly doubt) your car should be worth $40K.

Maestro Anthony, IF I make it to Monterey this year, yes for sure I will drive the Alfa there....Alfa enthusiasts need to see and appreciate the amazing quality of your work in this special car!
To all the Alfa experts, DON'T point out things that aren't original or 'correct' as I will get offended and NEVER show Tito's car publicly! This car is tastefully modded. Perhaps Anthony you can share some of the special work done on the car?
I did notice your mention of the desire for a Mangusta....Is it for you? Did you win the lottery? I just acquired a Pantera - haven't even received it yet, coming from CT to NV in the next couple weeks! I'll post photos for sure!
Mike

That's a good one, but SNOmobiles are never out of date.
