At least Alpha made that one a rear drive.
I'd rather have the Scuderia than the Stratos, though. I can't see cutting up that expensive of a car to make one even more expensive that does the same job.

well if i was silly enough to spend the money for one i think i'd go with the alfa , as for some reason it really appeals strongly to me . i seem to have all sorts of things sitting around that are pleasant to look at , cost lots of money , and seem to serve no useful purpose ............ so why not a purty furrin' car with a snarling ferrari v8 to impress myself and make me feel impotent , ooops i mean important in my own mind ...... LOL !!!!!!!!!! dain things are purty , but the money and the techno nightmare of sensors , wiring etc. will prolly keep from ever buying even the gt stang , as her new van is a pain in the **** to deal with itself !
