Re: 156 in the US

Hi Guys,

	I drove a 156 Selespeed and it kicks the Audi A4 flat. You cannot
compare the A4 1.8T to a Selespeed. One is not so good, and one is very
very good. My housemate has the A4 1.8T, the engine, well does it have an
engine? Or is it a sewing machine? You have to modify it to go fast. the
Alfa is fast right out of the box. 
	The 156 Selespeed's shifting is so smooth, and the engine has good
torque. The car is also very beautiful. Not to mention that it is about
40% cheaper than a bare bones E42 318i. I believe the exhaust is all
stainless steel and it comes with 16" wheels, CD-changer, leather seats
etc. I want one!!!!!!!!!!! Makes my 155 feel old. This sucks.
	The good news is, we may get a 156 V6 sometime next year, or a
little later. 8-)))

Ciao,
