We had the future head of Fiat in the USA on this digest a while back
(anybody remember Stu?), and he told us explicitly that we don't matter.

There are a couple of 'places' where Alfa owners are concentrated in the US.
This list, with what, ~1500 total members, and maybe half of them US based?
And AROC, with ~5000 members.

I always thought that 'we' should be the Alfa beach head into this country,
but has anybody on either this list of in AROC been asked their opinion by
anybody from Fiat or Alfa?

Stu was right.  Alfa needs to market to somebody other than us to be
successful in this country.
