Default I'm watching this everyday just to keep my head together

After test driving a 430, 599, and a DBS, I am now fully committed to picking up my car (original delivery date April 12) in Sept or whenever at Leipzig. watching this everyday until then! Yes I know everyone here has seen it just thought we could use a reminder to prevent anyone from harakiri

The EVO vid is great, but I also love the quote from CAR Magazine's Sports Car Giant Test 2013 ...

at 4:00, "We all desperately want to own that car [GT3]."

The EVO video I find interesting. I know it is a great GT3 review but he destroys the Alpha Romeo. Tell me Alpha was not pissed after watching that review. Actually, just around the same time I think it was Chris Harris who test drove the Alpha and said how great it was. But from what I am hearing the Critics are killing the car. It does nothing for me but would like to se it in person

I have always had a thing against Alfa since trying to drive my buddy's Spider and having the gear shift come out of the dash. I stopped the car handed him the lever and walked back home. Still sticks in my head after all these years. Yea reidry I desperately want to own one as well! great vid I hadn't seen!

I have watched the video a few times as well and am not sure yet if it is helping or hurting...

Yeah, none of those (430, 599, DBS) can compete. I just did a 2 hour canyon drive today. Reaffirmed my desire to wait for the car as well.
