Re: Does your Alfa make you smile
But it's not lairy enough to make me really smile when I drive it. A car HAS to be RWD to do that properly  [/quote]

Re: Does your Alfa make you smile
My Alfa can always put a smile on my face - driving to work, a short trip to the shop, or just looking at it parking in front of my house. (I love looking at it standing in sunshine, I can do that all day! )

Not word, b*****ds....
