It was never going to look like the original given the very swoopy shape, so instead it looks like a back street homage, which is just worse.

Have you seen a rear view, it looks like It had Brazilian butt implants!

GTA looks fab, just needed the orange seat inserts to be perfect.

Love the 156 GTA but that is too much money even for a mint one
General good ones are 12k and 147s can be had for under 10k

Not with 14k miles. A good one with 100k is 12k. You can’t get a good uk 147GTA under 10k now.

A large chunk of 147’s for sale now are Japanese imports all with the selespeed box. The bodywork is better (rust free!) than uk cars but a 2 pedal GTA is not for me.

Out of interest, a nice looking black 147GTA with about 45k miles, low for a GTA, came up on autotrader last week for 21k. It was there for about 2 days before the ad went, presumably sold pretty much straight away. So I’d say this 156 is probably a £25k car.

But it’s worth what someone will pay I guess. Still cheaper than some shonky old fords and about 20k less than a nice low mileage E46 M3.

So… they’ve taken a years old car, ruined the looks, permanently removed the roof and diluted the prestige. What else have they done? Will it cost more!? Crazy.

That 156 is beautiful though

I suspect they found some dusty unused 4C carbon chassis at the back of the factory and didn't know what to do with them!

There are some nice retro Abarth nods to the past in the design, not all bad, just doesn't seem to gel with the rear?.I don't mind it though, but I didn't aspire to a 4C either.
