GTV 3.0 V6 opinions

Had several GTV 3.0 and a 147GTA. Also the 2.5 24v 156.

The 2.5 just span so quickly, no torque but the rush at the top end was cheeky. Same for the 3.0.

Preferred the 3.2 in the GTA - just sounded filthy. Torquey enough, but still that top end. Autotrader here we come ...

Considering there in only 200cc between the 3.0 & 3.2 V6 Busso engines the difference is startling, loads of low down grunt and top end power who could want for more.

The price difference between the 3.0 and 3.2 over here is quite big.
Seems that the 3.2 is quite rare.
The difference in the engine is probably a lot more than just the 200cc

Why not, think value of both will certainly hold,mif not creep North a little, if I had the room, mind you mines sat outside now and I reckon I did more miles a week ago than you will do in a year, lol!

And mine.....they just look so much better...The spoiler is very 1990's and looks like an after thought.

I had a 2.0 TS with the spoiler and a V6 without, had them at the same time and whenever I'd like at them the V6 looked better, prefer it without spoiler

Not as pretty though.....OK that's subjective.....The GTV for me was the last pretty Alfa......Brera is good looking but still not as pretty as a GTV...

Try telling that to my other half...
She doesn't want to have anything with the gtv...
She Also rejected the bmw 850 so I won't be taking her opinion anymore :)
