no point waiting for Alfa to do that, might aswell just do what i have done The GQV with the TCT gearbox though will be great

 

[GhostyDog]

MiTo with the full fat engine and TCT would be fun

 

[LJ_GQV]

They should never have cancelled that car if they hadn't, id be in a **** load more debt id hav a MiTo GTA outside my house though

 

[GhostyDog]

Yeah, good looking little car that, would have been a hoot to drive.

I think Alfa should drop the GTA badge unless they make a more radical approach
250hp isn't enough 0-60 is slower than the 56 and 47 GTA's.
There is more potential from that engine and the car they need to do a limited run beast cus at the moment Alfa are dying with there current models.

Agreed, ain't they supposed to be making a V6 engine with Masser? Should drop one of them in it

GQV with a TCT box and 0-62 in 6.5 seconds sounds tasty

Rather have a 56-47GTA sillyspeed better looks IMO

I totally agree, Alfa have mentioned in other articles about putting an engine in the Giulia to rival an M3 but for a smaller car with competition from the M1 and S3 it needs an output closer to 300 bhp. Even the new Civic type R was delayed to give an output nearer to 300 bhp.

So they want to make a GTA version which is hardly any quicker than the QV, is this an even more blatant go at a badge engineering exercise?

I'd rather have a QV me thinks!!

Oh and I'd love a MiTo GTA with the GQV engine
