It completely different looking? I do agree with the opening comment though, I own a diesel MiTo, hardly a 'drivers car', although far more inspiring than practically every other offering from that class

I can't see anything special about Alfas and I doubt I will ever own one.
My dad had an Alfa Sud years ago. Sure as hell ain't nowt special about that. Fucking ugly thing imo.

I never said it was GTV/Brera V6 exotic, but it's a damn sight more exotic than everything else that all looks the same!

I like them but they are in no way exotic.

Sz's are fantastic, you'd be mad to own one though, all the parts are discontinued now
