Default My 997.2 c2s now has a younger brother :)

Hey everyone, after years of owning German sport cars and SUV's I made a leap of faith and added an Alfa Romeo Stelvio to the stable. And I must say I'm very impressed. It sure as hell gives Macan S a run for the money . just wanted to share with the folks out here..

Saw one at the Alfa display at one of the Road Atlanta races - nice looking. I like the looks of it and the new Maserati, but would still probably have to buy the Macan Turbo myself.

"Plenty" is a relative term.

I buy the largest / fastest offering from the manufacturer, then usually upgrade it from there (Cayenne Turbo S), 928MS supercharged 928, RUF supercharged 3.8 997, bored, carbed, and cammed 914 2.0, 6.0L GMC Sierra with intake & exhaust, etc

Yes, I have a problem but they say admitting it is the first step

Problem, or positive attribute? Sounds more like a feature to me.

Well.. Plenty is 280 hp can be chipped to 340. It weighs 500 lb less than macan . of course its not in the same league as macan turbo. But for a daily driver when my c2s is parked due to wicked weather here in Northeast I must say its a very fun car/crossover what have you

Test drove a Ti before I bought the Macan S. I was not pleased. Very buzzy and it was the only new car I have ever driven that had wind noise at 60mph. Even the salesman commented. The reason why I even took one for a spin was that I do like the styling. I wish you many, many, smiles and miles!
