    I am also not voting. The DBS looks a lot better in person than in photos (like many modern cars), but its is still a DB9 with an ugly body kit.

    I don't care how beautiful the Alfa is, as an Alfa it should be a joy to drive.

    it works, for our standards.
    it's too harsh when downshifting in the traffic? well, not so different from the person who designed it

    You know, just tell Guido to stay with a manual...

    the average Italian it's not Guido but "Tizio" or "Caio" or even "Sempronio" (please use only the first or they will look at you in a very weird way).
    btw, "Guido" means " I drive"

    so all modern BMWs feature a Guido system

    That is probably the best lesson in language I've ever gotten (to the extent that I'll remember it at least.) Thank you.

    We could make a sub-forum to speak only italian or something.

    Possiamo fare un sub-forum per parlare solo in Italiano.

    How am I doing?

    it's "Potremmo fare/creare un sub-forum per parlare solo in italiano".
