Re: I've just got myself a GTA

Welcome and enjoy...

That V6 is addictive - and you will find yourself going very much quicker
than you think you are on more than one occasion before you get used to
her, the in gear speed is awesome.. (I picked up a wadge of points in my
first 2 weeks of GTA ownership & I'm still suffering now 3 years later)...

connect nav doesn't have camera capability - I bought a Garmin NUVI for the
brera rather than spend the money on connect, but buy a snooper/road angel or
something - it's well worth it as I learnt to my cost.

FWIW - I find 18's on most alfa's upset the handling/road manners too much
even on the Brera which has optional 18's - 17's are fine. After having driven a
156GTA on 18's I was glad I didn't do the upgrade on mine... But yes the 18's
look nice.

Enjoy...

Simes.
