No stripes. Alfas don’t need them.

I don’t agree with that one though because the autodelta cars had stripes

I mean. I doubt it’s safe at 4000 mph so it’s still kind of a lie.

As long as you decelerate slowly you’ll be fine

Oh man. If only those were still $4,200... And running at 115-plus, hour after hour? That’s kind of impressive!

“1.3 hp per cubic inch”

I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a more arcane version of power per litre.

An Alfa is not gonna be “safe at any speed”...now this will most definitely be quite safe, but that speed is not going to be very high. Never mind.

Well, if you think of it with inflation, 1966's 4200$ are 32k$ today. A good deal for today but not that far off how much GTVs can be bought now :)

Well the tyres and bearings would disintegrate due to heat for starters. Poor planning from Alfa there, I expect the new Giulia to handle 4000 mph better.
