How did it all start for you, you know... falling in love with that Alfa Romeo?
I still don't know how I even heard of a Alfa Romeo, and what made me purchase one. I've tried multiple time's to rewind my mind, and nothing. Sometimes I think it's because I was born in Europe, Germany to be specific, but wouldn't I be a Porsche, Audi, BMW, Mercedez, VW freak? And I would totally be a Alfa Romeo hater, so it's definitely not the euro in me.
I use to see older ladies driving the BMW 2002 around hollywood, and they were usually beaters (the cars), but I would just picture a fully restored one. I'd also picture me being the coolest kid in california (picturing, don't we all imagine). I began to look into the 2002, and they were super expensive, even for a rusted and not running one. Then the Subaru WRX came out late 2001, and I completely forgot about the 2002, and WRX was in my head all day for a decent 9 month's. After time, I started to see more idiot's (at least to me they were
) with them, people were buying the cars for 1/4 mile runs. It was basically turning to crap. But I still wanted one, but my mind started to drift away from them.
And one day I saw a Alfa Romeo GTV on the internet. How? I don't even know that piece either, wish I did. But that's when I fell in love and said I'm buying one. 4 months later I bought one, never even drove, sat, or shifted one prior to purchasing, and now all I care about is Alfa's, I think it's permanent too.
All that, and I did not even anwser the question. I honestly don't know how I fell in love.
