Re: [alfa] Alfetta Turbina Wheels - Availability and Prices?

[sherwood white <vze2skmv@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

it's not like a problem it is more like whats the best handling alfa you
have ever driven? the beauty of the alfetta is how nice you can make it
handle and feel i have not owned a car that was not an alfa since 1975
actually alfa's with transaxles in the rear the other ones don't count
don't handle anyway, in any case unsprong weight is very important and
position of spindle in relationship to ball joints and hieght of the car,
the alfetta is the best handling i don't know why
