1988 Alfa Romeo Milano Verde review from North America

I am the 3rd or 4th owner and have owned this car for about 2 months now. Just before I got it, it skipped time and bent all the exhaust valves so I got it with a practically new top end. Shortly after, it threw a cam follower which we think was due to a valve sticking in one of the new guides. Other than that, nothing major, just door lock motors on the rear going a bit haywire sometimes.

This is the fastest car I have ever owned. It handles rather poorly at speeds less than 60mph but nearing 100 mph, it feels right at home. AR Ricambi sportcat and full Ansa system help too. A friend told me once that this is a car to be in love with, that is, you might be angry with it at times but you can't stay mad at it for long (especially when you're sliding into the corners and leaving all the dumb lowered 'fast looking' Hondas and Acuras miles behind you...here's a hint 'racer boys'....your car WON'T go faster with all those stickers).
