Thats a lovely 156 you have there bro. Think I saw you parked in Hyatt a few weeks back?

 

lol thx for the compliment bro! i nv parked my car in Hyatt b4 even since owning it last year [laugh]

 

Is the colour (Grey) same as mine? So far i have only seen a 156 with the same colour as mine 2 weeks back in bedok. other than that, it seems like my 156 is even rare than a Lambo [sly]

Could be timing belt. ... Could be coil pack.

Could even be spark plugs.

I suspect coil pack. Best is to get it checked out.

 

Is this the one?

It was a kind of blujish grey.

 

First time I ever saw a 156 was just after they had been released in Italy - was staying here

and one was parked outside the hotel..........

 

Absolutely stunning motor car :)

More pix of 4C - Hate the headlight covers :angry:

I showed my wife the 4C. Wanted the opinions of someone who is not a car fan.

Her comments:

- Head lights overkill. Ugly.

- Overall the lines gave her a feeling of they are trying too hard to look cool. Too many lines.

 

Erm, I'm a uncouth person. Are her comments justified? To me it looks not bad. I just find the headlights ugly. LoL.

No she is right on the money - it does look contrived.

 

Some of it is of course due to the mid engine mount but frankly I am afraid that the usual svelte shapes crafted by Centro Stile, Bertone and or Pininfarina have not been applied here..............

 

At least if the Duettotanta is anything like the concept vehicle it stands a very good chance

 

BTW the Elise is almost as equally unattractive IMO

 

PS Any updates on 159 replacement?

they changed the wing mirrors also. A designer that doesnt know when to stop is not a good designer.

 

You just pointed out the UGLIEST part about the car.. I almost vomited.

In one forum they claim to have used the mirror out of the parts bin - they DO look a bit like the ones on my Brera (the housings that is - not that Godawful looking arms).

 

And the tail light lenses? Off the MiTo?
