Yep.
I love, love, love the late 60’s into early 70’s GT’s.
Speaking of Porsches getting the rear end a little light, looks like this guy is helping to provide and anchor with some edge pressure on his skis. Though not too much pressure yet, as the skis are not railed and de-cambered. I wonder what the next frames looked like.

Ok, I have to get some Giulia Super love going now. A favorite model of Alfisti.
A race prepared one:
And a lovely street edition.
That is the thing with Alfa. Everything they built had the good motors, running gear, brakes, etc. And they were built to be driven hard. The sedans, the convertibles, the coupes, all were mechanically very close or even the same. At least with the 4 banger models, as compared to the more exotic models shown here in this thread.
Now, electronics, power accessories, etc., as those came to be expected, not so much. Maybe better now, but arguably, the new cars are branded Alfa, but are more Fiats, produced where Fiat has been, rather than in Milan, the place Alfisti consider to be Alfa's home.

LMAO. That's funny.

did you watch it? it comes off as pretty real, if you're not paying really close attention.

Yep.
There’s another Berlina, in an uncommon color. And those GTV6’s are fast as hell. Driven well, they were Porsche killers at SIR. The only Alfas out on the track that could keep up with the Porsches on the drag strip straight to stay in the mix.
You can tell it is a 6 due to the hump in the hood (and styling stuff I just recognize). I always wanted one. Preferably black with tan interior. They were not quite as nimble handling as the 4 cylinder model, but way faster.

I did. I play a lot of video games so I noticed pretty quickly. It does go to show how far we've come though. It looks fantastic.

The new Giulia's are incredibly gorgeous. There are a couple around here.

What?
I noticed immediately that the smoke looked odd, but wasn't positive until I saw the spectators. I sim race a lot, but don't play other video games.
