The Bad?
-Fuel level sender works but needs adjustment
-A rust hole in the driver's side floor board was hastily repaired with sheet metal. Hasn't bothered me but some may prefer to do a proper job instead!
-Interior carpet is intact and has no holes, but looks a bit old
-COBRA seat upholstery is not in the best condition
-Paint is nowhere near concours quality - Paint match from the fuel cap delete is close but not perfect and the body has many little dents and dings. Even though, she's still a MAJOR head turner and I have only received positive comments
-Aero modifications are not for everyone
-Small, non-developing windshield "chip" (seems to be between two layers of glass, really odd. Was there when I bought the car.)
-As any Alfa, she self-lubricates (from either the pan gasket or the cigarette seals, can't tell.) Doesn't prevent the car from being driven hard, and it doesn't need much oil. Not even half a quarter every six months, even when driven hard
