^^^ Is that ever crackhead lol. I nearly bought a white one exactly like it with 21,000km. Was parked in an underground lot (upscale Seniors apartments no less) and a broken watermain flooded out about 30 vehicles. The water went only about 1/4 up the wheels, none got inside, cars really got their rotors wet andmaybe up to the oilpan/chassis. The insurance co put a junk title on it meaning it could never be re-registered. I bid to $450 and it sold for $500....far cry from 35 grand lol.

This was the calendar car of the day yesterday...what a looker.  Too bad I can't find any bigger images.

The Dart (yes, Dodge) top works perfectly with it.

other than that, it is gorgeous
If driving an Alfa does not restore vitality to your soul, then just pass the hospital and park at the morgue to save everyone time.

Now drives a Jaaaaaaag...and thus will not pay for anything during an outing...but it is OK, because....I drive a Jaaaaaag.

It's got Air Ride, for the right stance when sitting still at least.  At factory height it looks like a 4X4.

GM dealer across the street got a cute little Golf in trade last week.  So I've been waiting to see what it is, gotta be a GTi, has 19's on it...and, nope.  It's a 2017 Golf R.  With 17,000 and change km on it.  Gotta wonder how upside down that guy is, and what he traded it for.  It's white, and it'd make a great replacement for the Sonic (who would know? A hatch is a hatch, amIright?).  One look at used prices on a fancy Rabbit though...and NFW.   :o $38g for a car that was $45 new...guess we'll see what they want for this one when and if they list the "call us" price.  Rather get a Mustang or Camaro then. 

Sure looks nice though.
