159 SW Ti for a GT 3.2?
Discussion
3 months in and have to say owning a GT with the Busso is something I don't regret. The engine has a glorious progressiveness through 4000 rpm. I do miss the quality spec of the Ti wagon and a little extra space- I'm 6 ft 4...however the handling of the GT is nimbler, mine has had the Quaife LSD done. Yes the snag list is one to keep on top of(just small things like electric Windows, door lock etc and now know checking the oil regularly especially as it's had an engine rebuild) but it feels like a special car to own when you fire her up first thing in the morning. The V6 springs to life 
) I don't think there can be many Dijon blue metallic V6s in the UK?(slightly lighter shade than the blue on the later run 2.0
The only downside is I cannot see a 2 litre Giulia replacing it in my driveway...it's going to have to be the big one
better start saving! Depreciation on registered Cloverleaf Giulias is going to be interesting to observe. I think they're going to hold their value unless Alfa punt a few in the UK market.
Cheers,
Iain

Alfa really ought to make a new coupe, but following a busso V6 is going to be very hard, engine wise. a Giulietta based nu-GT would be cool, but that 1750 lump just isnt as spectacular as the old V6
