But i'm pretty sure, they will definitely not give you the same sort of experience as a continental car. I may sound bias coz i own one, but once i've gone continental, I'll never go back to japanese, no matter what the model. to me, its not about good or bad, its an experience thing. some people like japanese, some americans, and so on..

I have seen a lot of Alfa in this country and especially the 90's Alfa which used boxer engine! The sound is nice & the driving experience is sweet! Actually the parts is not expensive and the only thing that hurt most owners is the parts availability and reliable mechanic.. I have seen a few Alfa lying in my mechanic shop for almost 2-3 months just waiting for some parts from Italy...
