Some numbers I associate with exciting cars, some I just associate with boring. No logic to it, just do.

for example

good- 998, 1275, 2200, 3500, 5700

bad- 1200, 1400, 1900, 2400, 3900

any thoughts?

So wrong wink

Alfa is 1300 or 1600 all the way, Guilietta, the GTA Junior, tz2, Big GTA.

If I had a favourite capacity - it would be 1300 (Abarth did a lot with that capacity, as did alfa in rather awesome ways.) Or 2litre in 8 cylinders - love a European race engine from the 60s.

Although the car I currently own is 1800, and the one I plan to get next will be the same...
