Don’t hate it, but a bit too much of a BMW Z3 / Z4 vibe. Irrelevant, since only one made. Always loved the '80s original, still do.
I like Zagato things.

I’ve driven up that in my camper van (just about made it up), and a late 80’s 911 Turbo (fucking hairy, glad it wasn’t mine!).

Just a shame about the Selaspeed bit.
That 3.2 V6 engine makes a glorious noise, had the newer one in my old Brera but it’s a shame that after the 156 they did away with the chrome pipes on the newer JTS version
If I had that I’d fit a clear bonnet so everyone could see the engine

I quite like a 2.0 twinspark. Partially for affordability reasons.
The 2.2 JTS engine is good as well, got loaned a 159 estate when my car was in for a service and it was really smooth, felt more like a straight 6 than a 4 pot.
I had the selespeed gearbox in my 156 2.0 and it was nice to drive. I’d rather have the selespeed box than a manual one these days although the younger me would be horrified.
The Busso engine has sadly had its day but what a thing. The sound, the endless power, it was intoxicating.
I liked that engine too. I had it in my 156. Nice smooth power delivery.
It is what we have in our Spider. Think it suits the spider.

Lad from the pub back in the day used to drive us to Maine Rd for the football in a Chevette with a V8. It was sometimes scary on the way there. After a few pints n a pie it seemed fairly exhilarating on the way home.

Purty car. Great plate. Needs wires.
