Man how far Lexus has fallen in the styling department. They were on a roll with the Japanese designs coming to USA: first gen IS, second gen GS, LS...and now look at their lineup...as if a 5 year old obsessed with Gundam designed their cars. Ugh. I love my 04 IS300, and would never, ever consider Lexus to replace it.…

I agree, the Busso is legendary and sounds fantastic. I love thrashing my 25 year old Busso.

The Busso lasted until 2010 in the GT, when it was replaced.

No, you are wrong. I do like trucks and SUVs. For their intended purpose. Would not want to tow with a Fiat 500. But...that is ALL that is basically offered these days in America. Dont deny it. Manufacturers are killing off cars and only building CUVs and trucks. Look at GM. Ford.

Bit...you dont have freedom of choice. USA have one of the narrowest vehicle selections out there. Crossover, SUV, or truck. Take your pick. Walked into a Ford showroom lately? See any cars? Lots of choice as long as you want a truck or a glorified baby stroller I guess.

I is a self fulfilling Prophecy, although the American car buying public dug the hole it is currently in, and doomed its automotive landscape.

A reliable daily, fantastic winter beater. These also are surprisingly quick too. But for anything more than that, it is too much money to ask.

When will it come out of the closet and finally admit it is a BMW to the world?

If making a singular car that is connected to the former soul of a company after the rest of the lineup became so far from The Ultimate Driving Machine that it is actually sad, then sure....it could be a future classic.

Front plates should not exist. If they have to, for higher end cars it should be STANDARD to have one of those plate hideaway things. Also, with the Alfa, it goes on the left side of the scudetto on the bumper. It is just designed for the dimensions of a Euro plate, that is all.

That rotor looks to be OK.

Trick is always leave something minor broken, then the rest of the car will be satisfied.

The sound of their small V8 is intoxicating, and the design is classically beautiful on the level of the Miura. Love these. Forza Alfa, Cuore Sportivo.

Did not read the article at all. Got to the headline, quit.

And they would be wrong or merely sucking up to the manufacturer.

My Alfa Romeo 155 2.5 V6 is my forever fun car. Will always be first, no matter how many others I add to the stable. Alfas are notoriously unreliable, especially concerning interiors, electrics, and sensors. Mine so far has been good, but is not without its little characterful issues. The heart and soul of a Rad era Al…

It is desirable for the tunable 2.7TT and the manual, but the repair bill as the mileage stacks up will be horrendous. If you are prepared for that going in, hey take a stab. If bot, run far away.

Sorry, if I am going to. get an auto only modern sport sedan, it would be Volvo S60 or Giulia all the way.

Yeah, but what if you dont want to put hand prints all over your car, or scuff up the kickplates with your shoes...

Wwell thank you for the clarifications. I do not follow the racing that closely and all the different classes in different races is bewildering. Yes, I meant an F Type racing in WEC/Blancpain/whatever the hell it is called racing Lambos vs Bentleys vs Ferraris vs R8s etc., and an XF touring car in WTCC/BTCC. Yes I…
