Replace 50 mph in the above w/63 mph (YSMV)!  That's what I "loveloce"
about my `83 GTV6. Ah,  music to my ears, message to my bum...IMHO you
can't get that thrill with any 164 I've been in.

G@d knows, I still love my wife, even though she doesn't really get
it. I shouldn't complain, since she claims to own twice as many Alfas
as I do. To each his/her own, that's what makes life interesting. This
is starting to sound like "which Alfa Romeo is the best Alfa Romeo"
thread. I hadn't found an Alfa I'd kick outa the garage yet! But then
I've never been in a Sud.
