Yeah there is prob. big reason why most of the kid has F40 posters in their room walls but I don't know I think I didn't like the design.

They say Alfa Romeo is the car that has soul&passion in it.
After you get used to you can't leave it.
Seriously my dad still talks about that car.
They also say the engine noise has some kind of nice tone to it, everyone alfa drivers are fan of it.

Because otherwise you won't drive the car. It's not reliable like a Peugeot or Opel or like german cars.

My dad was keep having problems with the 156, they even replaced the service manager because they couldn't find out the problem. But the new manager told my dad, this car is a problem car, you drive it because you can't leave it, you have to deal with the problems.

I'm serious.
There is a reason why I still miss that car.

Yes they were ugly but this 1998 model is what brought Alfa back.
They don't have 156 anymore. Not they have 159 and it's much sexier.

























aaaaaaaaaaaaaand always loved alfa girls



swooosh you need wide body kit man

 

everything until the last pick was awesome.....the last pic ruined my boner LOL

 

^ hahaha

Austin don't even look at the interior of 2001 Opel Vectra haha

Anil,
But I agree on the technology, they had the trip computer and stuff on those 2000 models.
That's how it was known also.

And Peugeot was the best handling car. Dad had Peugeot 406 before Alfa

Saturn is kind of Opel here but they don't make it anymore. It has the DNA of Opel but never looked the same, except the last model they brought up.

Saturn Astra is same as Opel Astra...exactly same

 

mmmmmmm Alfas

 

Such a pretty car

 

 

 

oh god hahahahahahahaha

 

Angry Birds

 

Man, those Alfa's are so hot......

 

Always top brand for me Steven..

This is my fav. 159 picture





Picture below, did you guys notice how gas pedal and brake pedal shaped or turned?
Give it a thoght a second aaaaand now you will say
ooooh
yup smart



Those were 159 model

Now the 156 model was from 98 to 00
and they changed the interior + headlights after 2000

My dad had 98-00 model and here is the interior



Yes had a red key like Ferrari which I still loveee
and now look at the interior of Ferrari 550 Maranello



How the center console comes from the sides or those circle displays
are same
and interior lighting was exact same green color

later on they made it red on the new models

This is 156 model after year 2000 or something





I always loved how the interior has many combinations.
Blue red yellow everything.
Different types of leather seats
sometimes you don't even want leather
cloth has many nice options
my dad had gray cloth that had classic alfa romeo writings on them, everyhwhere
can't find a pic of it



Still remember the feeling of it








and my right orange bulb burned have to replace it
just noticed it tonight

 

Holy shit bro, if that lady got out of that car I think she would have been beaten to death. I'm surprised he didn't yank his helmet off and smash her window.

 

I know right!!!
He was still calm...and walked away

 

Probably the better route. Did you film that or was it just on YouTube?

 

Yeah since it was a woman..
Nope, youtube
Never been to Brazil

Look another idiot
loose the control, boom family gone

 

Wow what a retard man. Going that fast requires a lot of attention, one little bump in the steering wheel and he's fucked, and he's filming it.

 

Exactly...

Look at this one
This is from Istanbul,
friends of one of my friend.

In Turkey, S2K is everything for us even though most people has European cars...
You have S2K? Sell the car if you can't drift in Istanbul




I know the red one
34 RED 11

34 is Istanbul

 

Wow I was really expecting to see him end up in the guard rail

Fuck dat lol

I'm saving those driving moments for when some crazy murderer is chasing me through the streets, then you'd have no choice lol but I'd never drive like that on public roads for fun. Way too dangerous, never know when something unexpected can happen or someone switched lanes right as he did, there's just too much to factor in.

 

hahaha
dude you have to try the TL to it's limits, you have to know what it can do
i scare the beep out of my friends with TL
because i know what it can do, i know when the rear will take off to right or left
while they are yelling me to slow down on the corners at storrow drive,
i am like ohoooo not even the limit
you have to know what's under you, and what it can do
HP or torque is not everything
what the tire, gear, power could do at the second is the key
which gives you fun knowing it or what feel will you get from it
take it to the race tracks at least

and Europe is totaly different world dude,
i won't do those moves in US
can't trust the road here expecially at Boston, can't trust the drivers also
back there it's not like that, they know what's coming behind them and not a.holes like i got in to here

they slow down while you pass them on one lane both directions
or even the oncoming car slows down so you pass 2-3 cars or trucks

but in here? i don't even want to start what i saw in Maine or NH... one lane roads

i'm serious, traffic is totaly different than here
also in US it's too easy
after getting used to here, I'm keep having trouble back there, I need at least couple days to get used to it

 

The real Type R
look at that RPM

^
Forgot they were in Europe when I first saw the speedometer. ha

 

hahaha awesome vids....

I used to love running upto 120 on the highways and cut through traffic and take the exits at excessively high speeds but i slowed down....i really really slowed down....

not coz am scared to do it, but only coz there are innocent people/kids on the streets who can be injured/killed because of me.....but yeah every once in a while when there is no one on the highway, i do tend to do higher speeds but its all in moderation....

some street races are fun, but you need to make sure that if you loose control, you dont hurt innocent people.....

 

haha
that fn2 was pretty fast
went up to 140 from 55 so quickly
he shifted pretty nice too though

 

Random, from tonight



Top of today




I will buy a phone holder that you stick it to window

 

nice videos....why did you cuss in the 4th video?

looks like you love the sound of VTEC....i wudnt be surprised if you dont get more than 23-24mpg highway

on the other hand, be careful....the AT's dont like a 4th to 2nd downshift....so when you are cruising in 4th and you gun the gas pedal the car shifts from 4th directly to 2nd, bypassing 3rd....this actually hurts the tranny....

and how were you taking this video? lanyard?

 

4th video
0:54?

road dude, i thought i was in a potato farm or something

what lanyard... im holding my phone with my right hand all the time
shifting and holding the wheel with my left

yeah bypasssing 3rd does hurt but couldn't use the tipronic all the time

1st video, 0:34
love the tipronic click unlike a ferrari but still hahaha
and yeah dude SRI with Vtec ufff

 

^^^ aaah....not safe bro but good videos....

what i did in couple videos is jammed the camera in the passenger seat....between the seat and the headrest....worked beautifully....the only thing is you cant see the speedometer....

 

didn't leave the steering though... i use my knee hehe

thought about the headrest but still I will find one nice holder that won't vibrate and try it on driver window

ohh at the end of the 1st video, that orange challenger srt8 or something came right on to my ass after I passed him
I moved to middle lane so he could go and I could follow
idiot slowed down

I don't like starting at the front, i don't care if it's v8 or something

 

still not safe....look after yourself

any new mods planned bro?

 

Yup

1-Go to another Autozone and replace 7440 bulb with 7443 for front orange parking bulb.
Right one is out, signal works though..
Bought the silverstar one...much brighter than stock bulbs as you saw when I tested the reverse bulbs.

2-Will leave customizing the headlights to later, since new Osrams are good and I don't even have time these 2-3 weeks. Got 4 projects to finish before FINALS + have to make sure my internship before Sep 1st.

3-Next will be the rear A-Spec and extending the exhaust tips with it
but if I'll find A-Spec suspension on b.market, I'll jump to it.

A-Spec suspension or that new XLR8 J-Pipe?
Read that J-pipe thread this morning

They have to wait until I get my paycheck though

Currently????

Gunmetal plastidip dude... I think i will try it haha
Rims
+
Front grill, not only the frame, also the middle part
+
Bottom fenders on the front bumper (what do you say?)

So kind of taking out black and going with ASM + Gunmetal

But you know the bottom gray part of the grill (inside), will p.dip that to black so gunmetal stands out more.

And Psychology prof is saying hi to you hahahaha

 

hahahahaha.....busted eh

 

yeah bro haha

got the bulbs, didn't replace the left one so I could compare em at night but even during day time I saw the difference, I'll post the picture
light fills the orange completly
+
got one of those phone holder...
took lot of videos but it friggin vibrates
i tried my window, sunroof, windshied

hard to see the speedometer during day
will check at night

i'll upload the videos and pics if i could
im in class

 

take your time....and trust me jam a camera in there and this is how it will look:

 

if I want to capture only the front, than it's perfect and easy
and didn't vibrate too much i think
i didn't watch it yet

i mount it side of the middle mirror, done
but
problem starts when i want speedometer in the video too
could get the rpm but not speed

will solve it

anyways heres couple of videos,
windsield and sunroof is still uploading

+ at the first video
look at he difference on the orange park lights
right one is silverstar, left one is stock


i think it moved

 

how about a passenger seat mount

 

I want a camera rig for the outside.

 

Anil thats pro thingy dude
too big

I fixed it, mounted it to sunroof
+fixed that clicking noise too

and could guess the speedometer too
but not sure how far will it show from the windshield


^ if that doesn't show the road enough

i will take it back to the side of middle mirror


^ fixed that clicking noise after this video

 

i like that first location better....if you can tilt a little higher to see the road as well, you will be golden IMO

 

Nice
that's where it is right now, will test it tonight

I will try to tilt it but then it shows the visor
stick that holds it needed to be longer
but then i won't be able to see the rpm

anyways we'll see

 

I couldn't take the videos

You guys know Rob Ferretti?
