I remember it from GT3, I used to want it so bad.. It looked very cool in the game, but in reality, I don't like it..

There are faster accelerating cars, but they weren't officially clocked from 0 to 100 km/h, only from 0 to 60 mph.

Btw, those pics look almost the same as the ones I took a this years Brussels Motorshow.


EDIT: sorry I overlooked the post gigdy, I red 0-100 instead of 0-100-0, my fault :oops:

Yes I do :D The factory - actually you can't name it a factory, it's more a work shed :lol: - is about 40 km from my place.

Nut only since 1998 it has the Alfa 3.0 V6 engine. Previous models (1994-1997) had a Ford Cosworth 2.0 turbo engine. It's one of the older models in which they achieved the world record 0 - 100 kmh time of 3.266 seconds (in 1994).

That's how I know about it too, but as cool looking and powerful as it was, it really sucked!

abbor 11-14-2004 05:59 PM

Yes, I believe it's made in Belgium..
