You have to keep in mind though that what separates the Alfa and Ferrari
semi-autos from the lousy competition is that they ARE REAL GEARBOXES,
electronically clutched and shifted like an F1 car, whereas EVERY OTHER
SUCH TRANSMISSION ON THE PLANET IS A MANUALLY CONTROLLED SLUSHBOX, torque
converter and all!! That's what pisses me off about Alfa having the lever
work backwards, to make it like a Tiptronic, which is just a slushbox.
They should have made it logical, like a Citroen 2CV, a Touring Car, or an
IndyCar. Duh.
More importantly, can anyone tell me how to get at my heater fan in my
GTV6? Do I have to remove those clips all the way around behind the
firewall?
