Transcript
Some of you will argue that this is the prettiest Italian car ever made. And no, it's not a Ferrari. And because it's an Italian car, of worse, your ashtray is the center of attention. And door handles were just way quirkier back in the day. And on your wing mirror, you find a cute small hidden Alfa Romeo logo printed on the back. This was Alfa's idea of a starter car, which is a bit like saying a glass of wine is just grape juice. No screens, no drive modes, no fake noises. Just a small Italian coupe built by Alfa and shaped by a young Giorgetto Giorgiano, one of the greatest designers ever. And my Lebanese dad would say, baba, this is not any car. This is Alfa. And to honk your horn, you don't go to the middle. You can go one, two, or three ways. And under that elegant clean body sits Alfa's legendary twin cam engine, which is the same DNA used in race cars. Originally a 1.3 liter engine producing 89 horse power no fitted with a two liter alpha Good engine producing a 130 worse power and this is how she sounds. Yalla.
