Matt you need a tee shirt saying " how is your turning radius"

I love the GTV and still on my wish list!! Back in 1974 a kid in the neighborhood received a red GTV 2000 for his 16th birthday and his older brother had a white spider!!... Just then the Alfa bug stung me as a 12 year old, but being born on the "wrong side of the tracks", four years later I bought my first car for only $50: A poor man's Alfa... A bright orange 1972 850 Fiat Spider! ...And still couldn't get laid...

Petrolicious and Smoking Tire together... I can die in peace now.

those glasses

Of all the cars driven on this channel, this is by far the sexiest.

alright... this ad might actually get me. that site sounds convenient.

Hey kids: it is a car review, not a personal attire review. Leave the guy alone with his glasses. If I am not mistaken, they are prescription and need to be that big. If not, they at least kinda fit in with the 70s Italian look that works perfectly with a 70s Alfa. These guys are nice enough and brave enough to share their cars with the world and be on camera - have some respect. Keep the comments to the car.

Matt: "If you're like me you stay up at night searching for cars" Me: "Go on" 🤔

This is one of the best cars Matt has ever had on the channel! With that said, people are definitely talking/asking about THOSE sunglasses😎

In 1971 we went to Sicily on vacation . A family friend took my cousin and I to visit his sister for tea in his 1750 GTV . Been hooked on these ever since

OMG an another amazing classic Alfa. Perfection. One of the best sounding NA 4cyl ever.

Love this. Love Petrolicious.

outsunglassed

That's the coolest car by far that you've had on the One Take videos. I love old alfas!

Thanks for AutoTempest! It's just what I've been missing in my life.

This guy's collection makes me drool so bad...

Car sounds great and looks like fun! I went to Italy for 2 months when I was younger, and I remember a lot of the cars were Alfa Romeo and they seemed very sporty. Thanks for the review!

Honestly my favorite older car! I'm definitely going to own one one day!

a dream of mine to own a classic Alfa! Going to check out the AutoTempest site as well. Looks like a time saver!😂 Thanks Matt!

Excellent audio quality on this one Matt. Thank you for your work.

Good ad, I really like your work Matt. Probably my favorite YT channel right now.

Petrolicious has been making me love Alfas for years now damn them!! Especially this car, this is a very very real dream car.

And this is why i watch your ads! Good work sir i will be on that site daily from here on out.

"so what style lenses you want?" "you know those 3d glasses you get at the movies?" "SAY NO MORE!" Love Petrolicious btw. but damn those sunglasses are INSANE!!! ;)

This kind of car is what I live for! Fun, lightweight, high revving and gorgeous!

This, and the E9 BMW are the most beautiful coupes ever designed.

This is the best classic Alfa Ever! For a 'Singer' spec car check out the Alfaholics GTA-R

Been using Autotempest for the last few years. Nothing new. Works great.

The Montreal is an absolutely gorgeous car, I'm not sure what Matt's on about there.

Great road test, Matt. My best friend had a 72 GTV with dual Webers, back in the mid 80s. I drove it frequently, and hard. I love the car. Love the snick-snick. Love the note. My first experience with them was seeing them blasting around in Rome, '69, when I was a kid. Love Petrolicious, too.

Actually matt, this is a fucking useful plug. I've been scouring the different websites for cars and I'm definitely going to check this place out, more so than I would sunglasses or coffee.

Owner looks like Ruben from Oceans Eleven.

First time i've watched a full One Take in a long time. Awesome car, awesome guy, awesome conversation.

glad to see the classics now and then, matt. very cool.

Had one of these in 1991. Paid 1500 bucks for it and had the time of my life! Thanks for zapping me back in time!

In 1974 I was a 20 year old in love with sports cars. I had a close friend who's older brother owned a '71 GTV that he was looking to sell (I forget the price) so I went to the only Alfa dealer in northern NJ (where we were from) and checked into a new car, spider and GTV. The dealership was in Moderation as I recall. It was my 2ND car, first new one and it sold for approximately $ 7,500 dollars. Silver with tan interior, no air conditioning, sunroof or any other extras. Man oh man was that little sucker a blast to drive. Four cylinders, 100 or so horse power and the best description of how it drove was simple; it wasn't that it was overpowering, it just ran away from people. PERFECT BECAUSE THATS EXACTLY WHAT IT DID!!!

What a beauty. I have always loved the look of these GTV's. I often see guys racing them in historic series here in Aus.

Definitely one of my all time favorite car designs! So gorgeous! You can't help drooling over cars like these! I'd love to drive one of these puppies one day.

Such a lovely car. So beautiful. Sounds great too. One of my dream cars.

That road is great for these kinds of vids, you really get a sense of speed which is so fricking hard when you're filming from a car, I think.

Finally!! beautiful and awesome sounding car😊 hello from Croatia✌

I have no connection to or history with Alfa, but every time I see one of these, I am overcome with desire for one. Imagining it as a stripped, simple, street/track semi-outlaw type build...mmmm, beautiful and so much fun to drive. Need.

Sadly I sold my 1968 gtv when I moved to USA! Worst decision of my life! Utterly incredible cars Discs on all 4 wheels in 1968! Mine had a half race 2 liter! Had it up to 135 mph on the U.K. m4! Beautiful cars Nothing like it today 😞

My two favorite auto channels combined!

Thank you Mr. Behnia and Matt.....I count the minutes until another Petrolicious episode pops up....

That's a great sound coming out of the 4 cylinder. Cool car. The weird glasses fit the style. Great video, Matt!

Incredible memories riding in this on road trips to Watkins Glen & Pocono. Dad had one. My fav sports car he had. Which included a Dino Ferrari.

The spyder and the gtv shared the same motor architecture (dual OHC, alloy block and head, in production from 1954 to the mid 70's) and some suspension parts, steering, with related four door sedans that became famous as the choice of police departments, kind of like the CHIPs Mustangs were noted. Only lighter, and well sorted handling attributes common to the Alfas of that genre. Thanks so much for including them, and judging by the popularity of these Alfa video's, I think they deserve honorable mention within the European heritage that later was led by BMW with the 2002. Now we have a global nostalgia for lighter weight and less muscle or boosted compensations for weight. Mazda, VW, and others are agressively cutting weight, and the public has gotten sophisticated enough to really appreciate what you experienced with the Spyder and GTV.

Always liked the look of these, great to hear they're a good car too, awesome.

Glad to see you in a real Alfa! Love Petrolicious!

loved the longer vid! keep up the great work, guys

So beautiful, so awesome! It's like it doesn't even try to be cool, but it ends up being the coolest

One of my absolute fovourite cars! Great video!

Growing up in Tampa Florida once in a while I would get to talk to an individual who had a 1976 GTV. First time I saw it, I was like damn that is Beautiful. He had the dual Weber carburetor’s, new cams and exhaust on it and was a blast to ride in.

Let's start from the basics: that guy "is an ALFISTA". He's 1 person. If it's more than 1, then you have ALFISTI.

I saw one of these cars in person recently. Have to say that it is my top 5 most beautiful vehicles ever made.

Nice little old cars. They bring people closer. Literally.

This is so cute, good luck finding one, I saw a 1973 one stripped down in a paint/body shop being restored back in 2003 and truth be told thats the only one iv seen..it reminded me of my 1600 1969 BMW I had back in the mid 1980's.

Fantastic giulia, I like this car so much !!! And the engine sound incredible !!!

I can say autotempest and searchtempest are great search engines.

I'm in love with these alfa's and i think its great you like them too. Its not always about the power :D

So many beautiful cars came out of the 70's - the TR6, the NSU Ro80, pretty much everything from Jaguar, and one of the most beautiful, the GTV.

As a fan of Alfa Romeo I can tell is a beautiful car. In my country we have a vintage category for Alfas. It´s one of my favorites Alfas this car, but my favorite Alfa is, the Alfa Romeo gtv6 2.5, you should drive one, Matt. Great video!

I owned few years gtv 2000 widebody,190hp, Borbett rims, black leather interior with diamond red stiching, all chrom dials and switches....really nice and fast retro car

i am subscribed to both and clicked to see Petrolicious video by seeing title :) but i saw Matt and got schocked. It's perfect to see you together :D

I want one of these so bad. It would look great in the garage next to my '74 Alfa Spider Veloce 2000 (same engine, same kind of music) but then I'd want a Guilia Super to round out the mix. But the two would require roughly $60k that I don't happen to have just sitting around right now. But I love the hell out of my Spider, and I will be driving it from Orange County to Monterey in August, which should be pretty epic!! Great video, Matt, thanks for bringing a classic Alfa to your mix!

The engine bay is so pretty! Alfa Romeo is functional art.

30 seconds into the driving...fucking incredible sounding engine, omfg...I WANT THIS SOUND! Awesome, wonderful, growly strong sounding. Bliss. This is why I4 engines are probably my favourite for sounds like these, V8s are awesome but holy shit an I4 that sounds this good is simply breathtaking to me!

105 Series Alfa's are the BEST cars in the world (my world is very small and lacking some dimensions). Juniors, Step-Fronts, Sprints, GTVs & GTAs, they're all beautiful., I love it, thank you xD

Afshin seems like such a laid back and passionate car guy! I wish I had the skill set to work for him.. Sadly, I was never gifted with any artsy touches.

Love the tacked on adjustable cupholder. I had one in my Firebird.

I am so happy i own one of these

Fantastic little car! Gorgeous.

Classy yet unpretentious, sporty yet elegant, perfectly proportioned approachable gorgeousness and Italian through and through.

A 1750 is the sweet spot say most people. I had a '72 2000 GTV with SPICA in Pugna aka plum... 130bhp stock and limited slip rear end. Super fun car!

Best ad yet!!!!

How many former owners are watching this and are wondering how they ever sold theirs? Mine was a '73 2.0l with a Webasco sunroof. Contrary to what the guy said about the handling, the rear was twitchy as hell in the wet even with the Pirellis. But strangely I'm not a fan of the Step-nose and prefer the 4 headlight setup.

Love petrolicious vids. The owner seems like a very decent guy.

My favorite Alfa Romeo!!

I love this car! The spiritual predecessor of the Giulia Quadrifoglio. Unfortunately quite rare in Brazil too Marcelo Tonella did some footage of the engine maintenance in his channel

Everyone appreciate theses ads while they're here because Matt says we only have about a year left.

Truly great car! You need to drive that SZ as well Matt!

Back in 1984 i owned a 1971 GTV great car wished i still had it .

petrolicious and smoking tire AND alfa Romeo?! amazing!

Fantastic! Always wanted one.

I daily drove a '72 Corvette for 8 or 10 years (and one that didn't exactly lead a charmed life prior to my ownership), and prior to that my father daily drove it for another 10-12 years. It didn't have "overboosted power steering" or "overboosted power brakes." In all those years I got stuck twice-once due to a dead fuel pump and once due to a broken trailing arm. And with that I moved the bolt to the hole in the top of the arm and drove the car home... I could probably count on breaking down twice in a week with any vintage Italian car. That Vette would blow the doors off this car is ANY performance metric, and I didn't "fear for my life" driving it. Still own it by the way. Anyway the Alfa still looks like an awesome car, and great review as always.

First time I haven't skipped the ad on the beginning of the video. Actually sounds useful, gonna check that shit out.

Hmm classic Alfa, I want one!

Can wait to get my 71 GTV 1750 up and running!

This was a fun one!

I like that autotempest site Matt.

Used Auto Tempest to help a buddy find a great tow rig. It was super easy since it aggregates everything to one sight.

You can rent a 1974 GTV 2000 & 2000 Berlina in Christchurch New Zealand for US$150 a day & drive great Alpine roads, given the tight twisty NZ roads it feels like a Super car, highly Recommend !! You can loop the Whole South Island in 5-6 days DREAM Drive.

Great video. I had a 1979 US Sprint Veloce (hatchback - 2L - dual Weber carbs - no AC) and after college I needed some cash and sold it. The greatest mistake I ever made. The only thing on my bucket list now (as I did the rest) is to get another old school Alpha. Most fun car I ever had and I still have and have had some very nice cars. To anyone reading this, these suck, don't buy one.. leave one for me.

I would love to drive one of those one day. You should put it up against a BMW 2002, or maybe a Lancia Fulvia, in a comparison test or back to back one takes.

I've always loved GTV's

This car is my UNICORN!

I like autotempest. It's really quite good.

My dream car.

Beautiful car.
