"Sexy, Sleek... A Beast! I love it!"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Minor Electrical Errors - Nothing Costly as yet.

I've was initially a little concerned by Alfa's reliability reputation, but I've been proved wrong so far...

The seating feels a little uncomfortable at first, but your seating position is racy.

General comments?

I truly love this Car! It's sleek, sexy and a Beast all at the same time!

The Red leather interior is unbelievable. I'd never have requested this by choice, but from the moment I saw it I was in love.

Performance wise it's a dream and the Salespeed Tiptronic is wicked. It reaches near 100mph in 3rd gear with little effort and acceleration is brilliant!

The Bose sound system is LOUD and I've had no need for any upgrades.

The dash board and center column is very very nice, but I've kinda come to expect this from the Italians.

I've previously had a BMW 232 and I've not missed it one bit and the performance of the Alfa is more than comparable. The growl is pretty cool!

In terms of the exterior I truly do love this car and the sleek Italian design is obvious. From the front grille the sexy lines flow down the vehicle to the very back and sweep up to the Spoiler! Beautiful!

The rear door handles being hidden in the window arch is really kewl and the front door handles in obvious chrome to draw your attention really does make it look like a Coupe.

How anyone can find these cars beautiful is beyond me. The front end is a mess. It's a mish-mash of shapes. Hideous!
