That's a beautiful car. Wrong color for me but very nice. I'm hung up right now and really looking at a possible 275 gts purchase if the market on those corrects
h20skier, it is a 1961 Alfa Romeo Giulietta spider. It’s not my car so I am not sure about maintenance on it, although they do look cool.
i said if they correct They might not. But hell where else do you park cash right now. FDIC who? That agency is dangerously close to Credit Default Swaps right now. Your car might not be in the same price point but it sure is nice. Great looking and I'd think they'd be a great addition to anyone's garage.
Thx h20skier! Your garage looks pretty interesting too! Very nice choices of cars. How did you like the 575? I am actually selling the Alfa so i can buy a 550/575.
My 575 was a cool car. Most stable car I've ever owned up above 180mph. It drives BIG. Kind of like a Maserati QP feels to me. At speed and cruising you can really tell that Ferrari built this car to cruise on the Autobahn to work. Going to Target for toilet paper is a different story. I'd recommend you drive both. The 550 is a lot different IMHO. Those big 12 Cyl'rs are just cool. It's the first truly refined one in the Ferrari family I think. As far as wow factor the 575 blends in. I like that in a car. That's why 95% of my cars are white. I like to arrive un noticed but still drive something that is awesome. You can go on a drive with 50 Ferrari's and people just don't notice the 575's. Good or Bad you have to make that choice. All of you old time 12 cylinder owners please don't PM me and scold me about the "refined" comment. The cars for the time were and still are some of the most ridiculously cool cars ever. I mean it just turned the corner to high end luxury car. Very comfortable for very long periods. Cushy yet a beast. 150mph in that car felt like 55mph in my pickup truck
Very interesting. Thx for your comments. It confirms to me I am looking for the right car. I am of the same opinion that I do not need everyone to see me driving a ferrari. That's why my 308 is in Grigio and that's one of the reasons why I really like the 550; it doesnt yell out loud "I am a ferrari!".
