A Brera? One of the most disappointing Alfa's, I'd take the much lighter and better driving GT over it....strange.

He loves it for the styling.

I think it's ugly as fuck personally.

No F40?

I thought this was the car he said to be his favorite ever?

I'm somewhat confused by this list.

Damn, will this guy ever make his mind up. Firstly, the F40, the car which he truely loves isn't on the list, yet somehow the Carrera GT is up there amongst his favourites. The same goes to the V8 Vantage...he slated the car for being underpowered, and had a hard time deciding if he would take one over and //M6 and suddenly he is so enthusiastic about it. I though it the DB9 that he loves from the AM line up. And Brera...what was he thinking ??

You only need two cars actually

Namely; a RUF Rturbo and A8

exactly. His statements are valid for like 8 hours... then they change. He is incosistent. Like you say, out of all cars he would choose the F40 but there is it? and where is his love for the f430 and his OWN ford GT?

this is bullshit
