I like the Brera..

I almost bought the 155 but settled for a 146 Ti. I can say that the 155 drives like a charm. It handles beautifully on the road. Didnt get to try out the 156 because it was out of my budget anyway.

155 has two variations, one is Wide Body. The 8V version comes with Timing Chain instead of Timing Belts so it lasts much longer. Reliability of the car depends on condition of the car (basically applies to all used cars). Alfa parts aren't as cheap as your normal local, korean and jap cars though but you can source for recond parts.

Manual 156s are rare and I really doubt you'd be able to find one that's in good condition (without being in a serious accident before)

I think you should just head to www.italiaauto.net and read up there.

wah, so comprehensive ar haha. thx bro.

the maintenance is ... epensive! but for ur case, u got an 11yr old car below 30k and still drives so good, i think its a good bargain. But i'm not sure the same case if i were to get a 60k 2nd hand 156 tho. any specific known problem which comes with 156? i.e. rubber seals n etc probs?

The condo i live at, there's 1 black 156 with diffuser at the back. Very cool. Summore after watching some ah beng turbo"ed" wira kena smoked by 156 on the genting road on youtube, it appeals even more to me.

How many of you actually own a Bella here anyway?
Should include Fiats in as well...

cowman, ur mad obsession with alfa is urrrr

so hows ur alfa now, damn power can reach 220
