Contax 1st Gear March 7, 2009 Author Share March 7, 2009 (edited) Even with a 400 bhp Alfa 159, it still won't sell out here... So unreliable, jerky selespeed, breaks down all the time, 3 big lights instead of other's 1 or 2, high consumption, bonnet so long, car plate must put on the side instead of centre... ... Most in the target crowd would still buy a 320 Likewise, you don't see a lot of Focus ST as well... alfa is abandoning the so call 'unreliable , jerky and breaks down all the time ' selespeed system and opt fora unit from aisin .Probably a twin clutch thingy . http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2009/01/alfa-...-new-200hp.html the 1.8 Di Turbo Jet will be hooked up to a 6-speed manual gearbox or to an optional 6-speed, sequential, automatic transmission from Aisin. i DON'T really mind if I'm given a ST .Really ..

Teoky Clutched March 21, 2009 Share March 21, 2009 only Manual... Lauched price $73,800 Retail price with coe $88,356 OMV haven't ask Launched price is OTR price ? Including COE etc etc ? That's very attractive pricing, if I haven't got my Bravo, I will buy it. Since it is using the 1.4 T-Jet, can do a ecu remap to get 185hp and 260Nm out of the engine !

Dennisk Clutched March 21, 2009 Share March 21, 2009 After looking at the car yesterday, i still prefer Bravo. Maybe after my test drive i will comment more about it. Some parts like engine bay design/layout are almost carbon copy of Bravo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some parts like engine bay design/layout are almost carbon copy of Bravo. The dash seems to use the same kind of material as the Bravo. But I think it does have an edge over the Bravo in terms of the electronic handling aids as it comes with DNA. ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
