The Milano Verde is known as the Alfa 75 in Europe. Look for the Quadrifoglio badge on the rear (translates to four leaved, hence the four leaf clover) this badge is only affixed to the highest performers in the Alfa line up. "There's not much that's practical about the 2008 Lotus Elise SC. It's nearly impossible to get in and out of gracefully, the interior lacks many of the bells and whistles we've come to expect of modern road cars, and its diminutive proportions prevent it from carrying much more than a purse and a bottle of water. But here's the thing: with the right mindset, it doesn't really matter." The seventies and early eighties were not kind to big block V8 powered cars as evidenced by the fairly anemic (for corvette standards) performance noted here. "The coupe also provides highentertainment value when the road turns twisty. With its balanced, near-50/50 front-to-rear weight distribution and sophisticated suspension -- an aluminum double-pivot setup at the front and a five-link independent rear -- the 128i exhibits the typical BMW virtues of excellent directional stability and agility. " 2005 is the last model year for the NSX and has remained virtually unchanged since 1997, and arguably unchanged since it's inception in 1991. |
