Alfa Romeo anyone?

[dccracing]

The fact that nobody ever does any of the european imports inspired me to do this project. I can't deside which car i am going to go with, but i have it down to these.

-alfa romeo gtv6
-alfa romeo 155 DTM
-alfa romeo gta 1600
-alfa romeo 1300 junior
-alfa romeo milano
or the oddball of the pack:
-Fiat X1/9

Please give me some ideas and your opinion of the choices of cars

As for chassis upgrades, I am just going to use my do everything chassis which has a stiletto with liths, a new standard wire antenna, and a hand wound 50 turn motor with spinbrush magnets. Nothing to special, but once I get the body done, I am planning on perfecting the xmod suspension issues. I already have most of the suspension wobble taken care of.

ahh saw and episode of top gear today featuring alfas! haha how about a lime green 75 with racing strips? lmao maybe posting some picture of the diffrent models could help some people deside

[dccracing]

i don't know about the lime green parts... the 75 is the same car as the milano, just the european version. i like the x1/9 too. i really like those small italian caars from the 80s that resemble wedges like the lancia stratos and the fiat x1/9.

I'd go with the Alfa Romeo 155 DTM, that would look pretty sweet if you went with the race paint scheme....

lol! that episode was pretty funny. it was a shame that jeremy used that ugly green paint on the alfa! it was same color that used in the cop car challange (big time laughs btw) it looked good on the fiat but not good on the alfa romeo

sorry, my post probably contains little insight but where have you found european car models i've spent hours for the past month and half searching online to no avail, could you post a link for my sake...please

[dccracing]

Actually, tamiya has a few alfas, along with many others. i have a 155 dtm model from them that was recently discontinued

[FloydfanYodaman]

they all sound fun can't wait 2 see what you choose

[dccracing]

I think i am going to go with either the 155 dtm because i have a colection of 155dtm models, or a gtv6 because i have a red one sitting in my garage.

i made a paper mock up of a 155dtm to see how it looks on my chassis. for wheels, i did the deep dish tut on my scion tc wheels, just like in the tut. i think those wheels would look good on a red alfa 155dtm if i painted them white. they are not very similar to the full size alfa's wheels, but i think they look more racy
