One word: Pointless

I think this thing is hysterical, a joke you can drive for $3,800. Sure.

@Peter Orosz: A cloud behind every silver lining! ;)

@F1_nothing_else_matters: Without a doubt. There are a couple of potentially interesting corners buried in the track, but they are obfuscated, by the complete lack of character of the whole circuit. They ought to call it Le Encercler de Beige (forgive my French).

Several elements of the race made it characterless: The extremely boring race track. Every turn looks exactly the same. I mean they could do something beside paint the run off areas to make that track come alive. The lack of refueling. I know, it is dangerous and is a hassle, but driving those freaking cars…

@BEYONTECH: Ha ha ha, I love laughing at stupid people. You are hilarious!

@Karlifornia: Win.

@stuntdriver: Yuck, I just threw up a little.

@GåßëÊdwå®d§ - In honor of skay¢og's migrating slash...: Well said.

Can't wait for this weekend; though I am more than a little concerned about rooky drivers with little or no testing, driving "slow" cars around a re-modified track in anger. Get off the racing line boys.

Kimi is certainly having his share of shunts. He should have stay in F1 where engine failure ruin your day. Safer that way.

@CaptainMorgan_SOS: No, the worst would be Ford Probe. Bend over and feel the excitement.

@IppoJ: Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar, but when someone is shooting a 30 sec commercial for a major car company and has half a clue of art and design, nothing is left to chance.

@GTBruiser: I don't know, but it is certainly a beautiful specimen.

I had a 1966 Squareback with the detuned 1600N Porsche engine. Dual Strombergs. Great car. I drove it continuously from 1972 till 1978. One time driving from LA to Phoenix, with a tail wind, I got 50+ mpg. Loved it.

Two words: Saab Sonet

Then there is the provocative V-shaped red door handle at 10 sec. I sincerely doubt that was an accident.

I would say Peter Sellers' Morgan in The Party, and let us not forget Claudine Longet, my third wheel has the aches for her.

This is how we like to see our Alfa show cars. The tribute to the bat wings opening up is a little over the top (looks like 6 feet over). Regardless, this is pure fun. You would need to employ a half dozen street urchins to keep the shiny parts shiny. Buffing all those chrome shards will keep little hands busy.

@jon_daniels: Touché.
