the Alfa Romeo GTA-R 300 0.5 in. Lift 2.3 i-Turbo I4 2-Dr Compact Coupe (RHD) could have reworked on a unique all aluminium alloy original monocoque chassis of the Alfa Romeo GTA-R 300 0.5 in. Lift 2.4 i-Turbo I4 2-Dr Compact Coupe (RHD) instead of the seam welded steel chassis . . . it'd complement the carbon fiber composite body of the Alfa Romeo GTA-R 300 0.5 in. Lift 2.3 i-Turbo I4 2-Dr Compact Coupe (RHD) . . . it would have been worth the €370,000 price tag . . .
VOLVO P1800 CYAN.
CLASSIC RECREATIONS CR1 CAMARO are my favorite cars.
I want more 💕
ICE vehicles are now obsolete and many cities are banning ICE vehicles or imposing daily high charges to drive these poison polluting vehicles in our towns and cities. Only the electric power trains make any sense. AC sports cars are now making an electric version. Also the classic J Type van has a really cool electric van which I'd rather have over any of the ICE vehicles in this episode. The future is electric – we all need to breathe clean air and reduce CO2 emissions before global warming destroys this planet.
Does the miata come in left hand drive?
I want more!
Hi how are you what about Austin Martin?
These are all beautiful! I love the first one on your list over all!!
Like the camero
Despite being produced in the 21st century and being powered by modern powertrains, these vehicles retained a classic design. Which of these retro-styled sports cars is your favorite?
