Alfa Romeo Coming to USA?

I hate Lexus of Glendale.  I hate that they desecrate all cars that were sold there with a non-factory nameplate addition.  All their cars say "of Glendale" below the rear Lexus nameplate.  I noted that that shit comes only from 2 sources.  First, CarMax and the other one is the entire Midwest.  They put all their dealership names on stickers on the back of the car.  Soooooo tacky. So not only is this dealership extremely tacky, I have given them several times to service my car and they have never impressed me contrary to Longo Lexus and Keyes Lexus.  I find Longo Lexus pretty amazing.  They have an actual Starbucks there! 

As for Keyes Lexus, they take care of me too.  I have to feel comfortable relationship with my "guy".  I am extremely paraniod with anything cars because there are many oppertunities to get ripped off.  It also helps that it feels like a nice hotel.  They have a nice lounge with plasma tvs, desktops, free wifi, pastries, microwave, sodas, bottled water, tea all for free!  It seriously makes you feel a bit better about paying a premium for auto service.


I was on my way to drop off my car for service.  So I got off the freeway and noted this camoflauged auto.  I pulled over and spoke with the driver briefly.  Apparently Alfa Romero will be coming to the USA!  We starting getting Fiat 500 which are extremly popular in Europe.  This is thanks to the relationship with Chrysler and Fiat.  So I saw this car parked on the side of Van Nuys Street

The actual car that people drive will not look like this.  They put stuff on the car to make it look wierd.  The idea is that there are certain cues you can look at like the L.E.D front and back.

The reliability of Alfa Romeros are definitely lower than the bomb proof Toyotas.  You see though thing with Alfas is that you don't buy it for reliability.  You buy it for the stylish-ness and the driver connection
