The Alfas in the press fleet seems to all have issues with electrical problems and CEL doing random things. I would not use one for a DD. For 50K or so, you can get a nice 997.2 911S.
I think I'll keep the electrical options down. I'd rather do that than drive a lesser handling car.

I'd still rather drive a new WARRANTEED Alfa for my money, than trust a 10 year old Porsche with 80,000 miles on it. It sounds like the same gamble. Just one has a warranty n one doesn't.

You also, have to trust the previous owner wasn't trying to do the cannonball run every third Saturday. Lol
