tous Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 At least it doesn't have fender skirts. Good ground clearance. The white stripe down the middle of the tire tread is a nice touch. Now we know where Dodge and Plymouth got the idea for the Daytona and Superbird. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radically Beautiful Jean Bugatti Design" at all, but the price, powertrain and the rest are all very impressive. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The side view or even the back view look kinda cool. The front view makes me think Italian Hudson. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tous Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 It's an Alpha Romeo and it's orange. Nothing more need be said, except those are the ugliest wheels I have ever seen on what is probably supposed to be a serious automobile. Maybe a good thing, as those rubber band tires would likely last about two miles before that orange thing is running on the ugly wheels. Oh, and watch for those speed bumps. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tous Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 It would be a good color for that automobile if they just went to a more cinnamon, copper or rust orange. At least it isn't Grabber Orange. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tous Posted October 3, 2022 Share Posted October 3, 2022 That is not a bad color for that automobile. Not my choice, but not downright terrible. I hate those wheels, too. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not my choice, but not downright terrible. I hate those wheels, too. I had a buddy that had a C6 Z06 in that color. It looked great out in the sun. The chrome wheels work well with the color as well. I'm not generally a fan of metallic paints on performance cars like the Vette. The only two metallic Vette colors I really like are Atomic Orange and Nassau Blue. I had a C5 FRC in Nassau Blue. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schmidt Meister Posted October 4, 2022 Share Posted October 4, 2022 1930 Duesenberg Model J Derham Tourster once owned by Gary Cooper. Okay the car is a keeper but whoever picked out those colors should have their a** kicked ... for days. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
