THE FIRST ALFA 156 GTA WILL GO TO JAPAN
The highest bid for the Alfa GTA "number 0001" was made by Tadashi Sengoku,
a
Japanese doctor aged 44 who lives in Tokyo. He is already the owner of two
other Alfa Romeos (an Alfa 164 Q4 and an Alfa Spider) and is a real fan of
Italy. In fact he wrote to the Company in perfect Italian, "It is a great
honour for me to have the privilege of purchasing the first Alfa 156 GTA in
the Internet auction. I am also most happy to contribute to a fund to
finance
scientific research into a cure for muscular dystrophy and other hereditary
diseases."<snip>
 A model with a sporting, aerodynamic line, extra large bumpers and
 pronounced wings, exclusive alloy wheels and a newly designed
engine: the 250 bhp, 3.2 V6 24 valve. But also new suspension geometry and
settings, a more powerful braking system, more direct steering and new
manual
and Selespeed gearboxes developed from Formula 1 technology. In short, a car
that truly represents that "state-of-the-art sportiness" which has always
been
the hallmark of Alfa Romeo.

Will somebody dare to say that is not a *real* Alfa?
