Re: AO Car of the Year 2008: The Nominations

I feel odd nominating my own car, but I believe that the Brera (therefore the "Alfa 159, Brera & 946 Spider" lounge) is one of the most beautiful cars on the road - but the model lacks that special punch that it LOOKS like it should have.

My Autodelta J5 supercharged conversion (plus the other mods) adds that special something that completes the picture while still being very much respecting of the original design and italian spirit.

To note, I prefer cars to look outwardly standard

Re: AO Car of the Year 2008: The Nominations

Hi,

I would very much like to nominate Ricksalfas Bertone 1750, I've seen the car in the flesh and it is truly mint.
