its very hard for me to decide which Alfa i would ultimately choose as they are all very good at what they do. if money was no bar it would be the old Alfa GTV with the good old V6 and i would strip and have it rebuilt. the new V6 from GM sources is not that good sounding as the old one so i'm not sure what the idea was behind that and if Alfa were happy with the end result or not.

The beauty of the engine was that there is no engine cover and its one thing seeing a beautiful car but lifting the bonnet and seeing another beauty is quite a feast and i'd wish companies like Alfa and Jaguar spend some extra time making the engine a master piece like the car itself. only Lambo and Ferrari expose the engines and it looks brilliant.

The Diesel engines are a good move but purist like me would say stick to petrol but today's petrol prices mean that Alfa would be out of the price range for some and out of business just it affected Jaguar who delayed thee diesel move and suffered in sales. the VM Motori unit is good and with the MultiJet technology from Fiat it seems better and performance is quite impressive and very good torque.
