    That pic so reminds me of my 124 (I'll need to try and find a (pre-digital age) pic of it), very similar lines. Probably the same Pininfarina influence. The Alfa is a little prettier than the Fiat though...

    There are some similarities, although the Alfa was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro when he first worked at Bertone. He penned the design of the first 105 series coupe (Giulia Sprint GT) in 1960 when he was 22 years old! Can you believe that? From memory it was only the second car he'd designed. He also designed the first Golf, Passat and Scirocco.

    The auto industry named him Car Designer of the Century in 1999. No surprise!

    Sticking with a theme...



    Only ever sold one car which was an 86 Nissan Pulsar ET Turbo. Still have the others which are a 92 Subaru Liberty RS Turbo (heavily modified, new engine should have almost 500hp at the flywheel) and a 07 Audi RS4.

    Wow Dagget! Love those cars!

    Here is my first car...Sadly the pic is side on, but the best part of the Mazda 1500SS was from the front. The four headlights made it look great!
