That’s it Any Forums.
Why aren’t you driving an Alfa Romeo? This should be the choice brand of Jewish people in Israel too.
Imprécisions. The snake is to commemorate the dragon that was found on the bottom of lake Gerundio once it got drained by the monks. Probably a dinosaur. It also resembles the shape of the Po river seen from above. The St George cross was used by Genova when they were ruling over the international ship trades: both Milan as well as England stole it from Genova as a mimetic strategy to look like the strong dudes

Trash tier cars.
My mom used to have a Fiat uno turbo, also a shit car even if it was "fast".
Italians are trash tier at making cars.

Because it's just a company like all the others. The founder(s) might have been based, but who owns it now? 99% sure it's some greasy kike, either via a capital fund, or via normal stock ownership. Who's on their board of directors? Enlighten me. Keeping an old logo doesn't mean shit. It just means they haven't found a better way to rebrand, yet.
It’s the Elkann, the descendants of the lead Rabbi of France. They took over the Italian half brother by killing him

Everything that Karl Marx said would happen, came true

Color me surprised. Of course kikes either own or control it. As if they'd let that one slip, kek. OP is hereby declared fucking retarded.

Yeah, we live in the end times now. Things will soon implode.

i own giulietta... let me tell you something, jack... my motor blew up because im not the kind of guy who keeps every problem in check but in previous cars like opel astra i never had a problem... but paying for a motor isn't the only problem... the fucking problem that you need an alfa expert to replace it and if you by dumb luck tried your local mechanic he'll fail replacing the motor twice and the other local guys didn't want to touch an alfa because its so problematic i needed to wait for a month because the alfa expert is also a douche who milks time...
good looking car but will make you miserable if you're not extra careful
Every car is trash-tier today. I cannot defend a single Italian automotive manufacturer who mass produce for plebs. Good days are long gone.

I had one. A new one. It leaked oil like crazy. And random parts would come off, like the door handle for example. And windshield wiper. Got rid of it after 2 years. NEVER AGAIN. Italian products might be worse than Chinese.
