i never liked the 147 that much or the 166's nose job this alteration is a bit different & much better looking.

No don’t like it, it look’s like a seat… don’t get me wrong seat are great cars…. :)
I personally liked the original design a lot. It was much more retro and the shape of the front lamps was more harmonious i think. A lot was taken from the classic Alfa Romeo Villa d'Este which was one of the most beautiful streamlined cars of the late 40s. But I can live with this redesign also.

Well, 147 GTA version has been available since 2002. So for once there is a car manufacturer who is one step ahead of its loyal fans. ;)
No don’t like it, it look’s like a seat…
Both cars, Alfa 147 and Seat Ibiza are designed by Walter Da Silva, but Alfa originates from 2000 and Seat from 2002 so I would say Seat looks like a Alfa not vice versa. Actually in real life Alfa 147 looks way better than in pictures and Seat reminds me of a suitcase on wheels.
Sorry if I sound too emotional but just look at my avatar and forgive me. :)
Cheers!

I think Alfas are weird. They have that certain feeling about them and then it gets weird. I have been around tons and worked on too many of them to know.
