That's ine way to look at it.
Another is that you are buying into the history of one of the most storied brands in motorsport. A G8 is a Chevy, and will forever own that. Well, not forever - at 40,000 miles, the sun visor will fall off. At 45, the seat recline lever will break. By 60K, you'll have replaced 3 wheel bearings 3 times. If you're not so sick to death of the cheap plastic interior and bonded pleather interior, that you've already sold it, that is.
There's something about an Alfa that truly gets under your skin. They've had some bad times, for sure. But some amazingly brilliant cars as well.
Sorry, that's comparing apples to dandelion seeds.
