a new project - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

Bob Danger · 2004-11-23, 08:46 PM

Does anyone know anything about Alfa Romeos. My Evil grandparents have one that they bought brand new and want to get rid of. I could pick it up for cheap its got low miles, always garaged with a car cover all it needs is a new top, or so i've been told i havn't seen the car in like 8 years. I was thinking about just buying it fixing the top and selling it to turn a profit. Anybody have any info let me know.

I'd say talk to ALFAS & Subaru's in Sacramento...(SSquared)...I know nothing other than that...

You know it's kinda funny that so many people think the 2006/7 STI renderings look so much like an alpha front. Do you think it's a conspirancy? Do Nate and Joe know much more than they are letting on?

I like it! It's cool and quirky... like Subaru's were before the ricers started buying WRXs.
