Do you guys know that we in italy consider Alfa Romeos like mafia cars?

19 Apr 2016

In the Golden Age of Alfa Romeo in fact those cars where the weapon of choice for all the crimes (expecially bank robberies) and crime organizations and the cars were so fast even the police started using them in fact there was a way of speech saying “You can only catch an Alfa Romeo with another Alfa Romeo”.In some cities between the old people this stereotype is still alive, I laugh everytime i friend of mine (who drives a 164) tells me about the old people staring at him passing by and suddenly walk away a looking scared. The italian petrolheads community still jokes about this in fact if you own an Alfa Romeo they’re gonna ironically considering you a mafia boy.
So if you ever drive an Alfa Romeo in the streets of italy and ask yourself “why people stares at me terrified?” Now you know why

Say goodbye to your kneecaps, we know where you live. We told you to keep your mouth shut about this. Just joking, not really with the mafia. Or am I?

Say something like that again and you are gonna see a pillar from the inside. LoL jk xD

in my country, the police used to have Alfa Romeos as police cars. people used to be afraid of Alfa Romeo because of that, especially white Giulia or Alfetta as it was usually used as unmarked police cars.

Grazie ragazzi!

Ma sei il figlio di Paolo?

Errore comune, me l’hanno chiesto ovunque. E no, non sono figlio di Paolo, peccato, perché sarei il re dei social

I could easily picture mafia boss driving this 164

I didn’t know this… And I live in Italy… Exactly in Sicily… And I drive an Alfa Romeo… 😨

Mai sentite battute sulle alfa romeo pilonatrici? XD

I don’t understand why the police even bothered to change their cars into alfas, because they’ll break down anyway, so what’s the point. Even if they do get away the next time they see the criminals it will be by the side of the road with the hood/bonet of the car open
