Hako is always the obvious choice.

I personally want a sedan though

Hakosuka, but God Damn the Alfa is sooooo fucking pretty.

Would be pretty easy to choose

Fugg. The GTA happens to be one of my dream cars so yep, I'll choose the Alfa

Hakosuka

The leet get says it

The alfa it is pure sex

alfa is cool and all, but i like cars that work

Those 60s cars have nothing that can break really though.

...it's an alfa romeo. It will find a way to break down

AYY LMAO’D

This thread is autism

Bialbero is love, Bialbero is life.

How about the Sud engine?

>triggered eurocuckold; the second post

The one with the real racing pedigree

hakosuka for sure
mostly because the alfa doesn't do anything for me

What do you mean doesn't do anything for you? The Alfa drives at least as well and is almost as fast and looks much much better.

>what do you mean you have a different opinion than me!!??

Alfista here. I'd pick the Skyline. Sorry, but it just looks better.

For me it's the other way. Nissan fanboy for life but in this case I'd take the Alfa.

generally speaking, I find Nissans much more interesting than Alfas, simply because muh JDM
normally I'd have more to say, but because I don't know too much about either.

however, even as a Toyota fanboy, the R31 gets me pretty hard

God smiles upon every single Alfa Romeo engine

--> GTV 2000

How about a Busso V6-powered GTA-R (pic related), vs. a similarly restomodded Hako with an OS Giken DOHC head?

Wait but I thought the Alfaholics use a bored and stroked Twin Cam?

They'll build you a Busso if you bring enough money.

I dream to have this done to dad's Fiat 1500 Pininfarina Spider. Great looks - and probably faster than the 250 GT Pininfarina Cabriolet I'll never, ever be able to afford.

Yeah don't look like no V6

Well in that case, I just didn't know they had built a GTA with one. But that Spider looks really damn neat.

This do look like on though.

AFAIK they haven't built a GTA with one - but if it fits in Spider...
That way it'd be an even match against that OS Giken Hako, too.

The one with the 420hp from the 3.2 litre motor? Because I find it sorta hard to believe even that engine can be street legal due to emissions.

i really like the alfa, but the hakosuka is unicorn status here in the states.

plus the straight 6 sounds way better

The S20 sounds amazing but the Alfa Twin Cam sounds hecking good too

Holy shit that thing sounds aggressive though

I like Alfas, but I loathe the way GTA looks. The front is fucking disgusting.

The hako. Alfas are really nice-driving godmachines when they work. Until they stop working. Which it'll do faster than the datsun.
