  • Ask someone on the street to name an Italian automaker and chances are your question will be answered with “Ferrari” or “Lambo,” but there would be no Miura without the 250, and no prancing horses to speak of without the cross and serpent of Alfa Romeo. The Milanese marque has a history that spans over a century of ingenious engineering, triumphs on the track and the street, and evocative styling from the greatest names in coach building. From humble but charming city cars to Grand Prix podiums, Alfa is arguably the purest embodiment of everything that we love about Italian romanticism and ingenuity, and for Petrolicious founder and CEO Afshin Behnia these cars are the perfect vessels for Driving Tastefully. Join him this Christmas for a drive along the Angeles Crest Highway in his 1956 Giulietta Spider.

That said, they went away and we got back on track to hearing the stories about the cars, with the car being in the background but always present!

      I always brought this up to my buddy as we love this channel and he even conceded to me that all your comments must've worked, not sure it was one man's opinion but they were factually based when I said none worth their salt here was using their products on these prized pocessions....this I know to be fact!

    Alfas always have a cut above the other Italian makes, just remember if it wasn't for Alfa Romeo there would be no Ferrari or Lamborghini. The late 50s thru the late 60s designs were masterpieces, when I started as a mechanic Alfas were the car I wanted to work on, but they were a rare car in Eastern Canada, more of a West Coast car.

    Wow, the amount of reactions is really amazing. I can only support your remarks on the contagiousness of driving Alfa's of the fifties and sixties. Drove a Giulietta Spider for over 1000 km last September in South Africa. It was a revelation. It fits better than my own 105 Spider! I loved it. Now I do have a Sprint in build up phase, but will take still a while before on the road! Will have to do with my 105 Spider, Giulia and Berlina for the time being.... (not a hardship though, just the agony of choice every time!)

    No no nope!...His theory applies to all sports cars...not just alfa's.
    I have been restoring cars for 48 yrs. These old cars have souls from all the humans that Built them , owned them , created and maintained them.
    Old cars if you have a deep passion for them that you can taste the desire for them and keep an open mind ( dont think the details , how much, where ? How ? How?)
    Be obsessed about them talk to everybody you know your looking for one and want one.
    Read books on them, watch videos on them.
    Join car clubs before you own the car.
    This is the formula for acquiring the vintage car of your dreams.
    The car will find you....its a fact proven time after time.
    It is not, exclusive to Alfa's.
    Its exclusive , to the passion , of vintage cars.
    Wait.....no watch, displayed , during driving? Is this a true Petroliscious video????
    My Hamilton Ventura , keeps me driving in style, always.
    Thank you. and Happy 2019
    Petroliscious helps teach the video playing car World , the ART of the Sports Car...and the art of the Designer.
    Its not about 500 plus horse power.
    Its not about comparing Sports Cars in quarter mile drag races , for bragging rights.
    Sports Cars are about Man and Machine.
    How it drives, how it corners, how it feels, how it makes you feel when you look at it, the details the door handles the guages the steering wheel the exhaust note
    And so many finer details that stir your emotions........The Art of Driving.
    Petrolicious is a great , reminder of Art of the Sports Car...THANK GOD !!!
