Talk:Alfa Romeo Alfetta

message: The current article states "It was popular in Italy but struggled to sell elsewhere". Is this true? I'm sure it sold reasonably well elsewhere in europe and in Australia and New Zealand. Possibly in the US market it might not have been so popular, but does this justify the claim "struggled to sell elsewhere"? I'd like to see some figures on this. --Xagent86 08:40, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The current article states "shared many parts with the Alfasud" Did the Alfetta share many parts with the Alfasud - if so, which parts? Not the front suspension (torsion bar vs macpherson strut), not the rear suspension (de-dion vs dead axle), not the engine (Inline Twin Cam vs Flat-4), not the drive train (rear drive vs fwd). Is this statement really justified? --Xagent86 09:21, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

message: I'm asuming this should read "changed name to 90", but was the Alfa 90 really a name change or new model based on same platform? --Xagent86 09:21, 22 December 2005 (UTC)

thread_title: 1970

message: This article falls down (as many do on this subject) due to the various name changes applied to the transaxle Alfas over the years (1972 to 1993), especially Alfetta vs. GTV6.  The article starts off as being about the Alfetta (a term typically applied to the 4 cylinder cars) and then talks about the V6 GTV6.  It is always been amibiguous in the Alfa community as to whether the GTV6 was a new model or a new variation of an existing model.  The same can be said for the Milano/75, and futher to the SZ/RZ, and other transaxle Alfa versions.  The basic platform is the same on these cars with various mechanical updates and different bodies as the years go by. A comprehensive transaxle Alfa page might be a better strategy.

replies: text: A page with transaxle Alfas would be too long, its only naming thing which could be stated more clearly in article. It belongs to Alfetta, basically Alfetta GTV6 but marketed as Alfa Romeo GTV6.  Same as Alfasud Sprint/Alfa Romeo Sprint. Milano/75 is just different name for different markets (with some minor differencies). --— Typ932T | C  21:28, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Alfetta vs. GTV6 

message: I own a 1978 GT -- the original window sticker I have terms it a "Sprint Veloce Coupe GT". To the best of my knowledge, this sleek Giugiaro designed coupe was first imported to America in 1975. In 1975 and 1976 it was called the "Alfetta GT" and this name, in script lettering, was placed on the rear deck lid. In 1977, the name in the U.S. was changed to simply "GTV". The "Alfetta GT" script was deleted and the model designation was now signified by a cutout of the letters "GTV" in the "C" pillar. In 1978 the U.S. name was changed again to "Sprint Veloce Coupe GT" and the "GTV" cutout was deleted. In 1978 there was no model designation placed on the car itself. However, in 1979 the words"Sprint Veloce" in script were added to the car on the side of the front fender, just ahead of, and in line with, the side rub strip midway up the car. At any rate, despite Giugiaro's aerodynamic cam back design and the car's superb running gear, the Sprint Veloce aka Alfetta/GTV never really clicked in America. Three model designation changes for the basically identical looking car within 5 years seems to have been more of a confused marketing device. After 1979, the U.S. received the GTV6. With its facelift of the original Giugiaro design now packing a six cylinder punch, the GTV6 designation continued without change during its years of being sold here.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.0.13.148 (talk) 17:29, 31 January 2009 (UTC)
