I could never make my mind up between the TZ1 and the Giulietta SZ
Coda Lunga. Loved them both passionately. Now AR have resolved the
dilemma for me by producing the 8C Competizione.

Then again, as CM says; "each to his own". Oh to own an 8C!

Quibbles:

1. The cockpit is too big for the rest of the car.

2. The wheels look a bit undersize in the arches.

3. Too many of those horizontal air vents in the wings.

4. The Alfa grille is stuck in the front intake like an unlucky pigeon that's
been struck at high speed.

Better from some angles than others.

Nice Iso Grifo in the background...

Something of an Alfa trait, that.

I have to agree with #4 -- they could have foregone the attempt at the
trademark grille and the car would have looked *better* for it.

here to show that no reasonable person can speak thus, and I venture even to
say that no one has ever done so. We know well enough how those who are of
this mind behave. They believe they have made great efforts for their
instruction when they have spent a few hours in reading some book of
Scripture and have questioned some priests on the truths of the faith. After
that, they boast of having made vain search in books and among men. But,
verily, I will tell them what I have often said, that this negligence is
insufferable. We are not here concerned with the trifling interests of some
stranger, that we should treat it in this fashion; the matter concerns
ourselves and our all.

The immortality of the soul is a matter which is of so great consequence to
us and which touches us so profoundly that we must have lost all feeling to
be indifferent as to knowing what it is. All our actions and thoughts must
take such different courses, according as there are or are not eternal joys
