Yeah, got lucky when I saw it many years ago. But having said that, the 147GTA is one of those cars which looks great in all the colours to me, a sign of a great design. I’d have been happy with any colour though, even the ultra rare pale green metallic!
Whilst it looks similar to Verde Artic, the metallic green that was available on the 147 GTA was actually a unique GTA colour called Verde Boreale, colour code 379/AArtic Verde is it's name.
I had a 156 in the same colour. Or snot green as I called it!

Cracking cars and still very affordable. At some point surely they will appreciate in line with other comparable modern classics.Recently found out that Zagato designed the body kit for the 147 GTA. They also did the 166 facelift.
So I actually own two Zagato-designed Alfas without having a telephone number bank balance.
Well the UK GTA market is slightly skewed by the number of Selespeed GTAs that sit unwanted. Still, my mate sold his red one for £15k.Cracking cars and still very affordable. At some point surely they will appreciate in line with other comparable modern classics.
Agree to a degree but finding “good” UK versions isn’t easy and many of these also sit around unsold. A few of the Japanese cars are nice examples and most have the benefit of being rust free, but you are right in that the number for sale outweighs the tiny demand, so even these sit unsold (the semi auto also plays a part but isn’t a deal breaker for me)Well the UK GTA market is slightly skewed by the number of Selespeed GTAs that sit unwanted.

Mine's not quite as aesthetically pleasing, but all the mechanical work has been done, and it's on Michelins.
Ideally I won't have to sell it to find the Ghibli Cup purchase, but I do only have one garage. Might see if I can rent next door's...
Very nice indeed, Blu Metallico?I was supposed to sell mine when I bought the QP. That was 3 years ago! I blame covid….
Still a very nice, characterful, modern classic as they are know as now.
Here’s mine last Friday at the Gawsworth youngtimers show (next to a lovely GTV6, 3.0 conversion), which was a great event.

No comparison at all.How bad... Or good, are the selespeed GTA's?
How do they compare the cambiocorsa Maserati?
What a shame.No comparison at all.
Drove one in NZ hideous from my experience.
It’s actually the same unit as the Maserati Cambiocorsa unit. I’ve not driven one but one of the main appeals is the physical interaction of the manual box, personally.How bad... Or good, are the selespeed GTA's?
