Welcome Jon, that is a tasty pair of 916's. Welcome to the Squadra 916 forum. Here where many nationality's come together.

 

I can highly recommend a V6. A GTV is perhaps the best 916 to have a V6 in.

 

Anyway, enjoy the Alfa talk.

Another welcome to the forum from me. You are real 916 fan :thumbsup: . Show us some more pictures of that couple. You are right about the cars on here, they are very inspiring (especially with a good photoshoot)  B) . The V6 will be some different experience for you, for sure  :thumbsup: . Try one, but it can be addictive  :D .

I could, but I cannot access the original pictures, since I am not on Alfaowner.

 

I did read the hammering ;-) No brains and no life leads to hammering. Remember that ;-)

 

If you want to paint your car purple with yellow dots, it is your car. Trust me, in Holland the

rudeness level goes through the roof on forums ( fora )

No teledials and the koni sports not adjusted to softest (why buy adjustable shock absorbers?), then you have to be prepared on to be hammered on at AO...by the way, welcome and what nice cars you have. :thumbsup:

Good luck with new member to the team of 916s :thumbsup: . 

What models are these wheels and what tires size did you use? 19" is very serious, will be good road network around you to be very good  :) .

Bullcrap. Everyone can modify to their own taste, without receiving a hammering. If someone's modifications are not to my taste, I do not reply to the thread.

That is why I like Squadra so much. The tone is friendly and respectful.

I might want to add that alfaowner is a good site, too. Lots of knowledge going around there and I got a lot of my questions answered there. But GTV-TB's parody is great :)

I agree, this website is great and very respectful.  There are many nice people who supports your efforts and provides for sensible guidance. Thanks charlee and damgreg for offering me parts!!! :respect:  There are practically NO parts for alfa here in the Philippines anymore.  Alfa pulled out in the Philippines sometime Y2000.  I don't think it was about the sales of Alfa but it was some sort of problems with the former owners,  Proton of Malaysia.  Heard a dealer is looking to bring back the Alfa here.  If that happens I will have to say goodbye to my GTV and change to a 4C!!!.  We have many European makes here to include: Jaguar, BMW, MBenz, Lambo, Ferrari, VW, Peugeot, Porsche, Audi, Volvo, Maserati, and Rolls Royce.  I  hope I did not missed any Euro brands.

 

Squadra 916 is GREAT!!! :laugh2:
