An Alpha, with a busso, red, on the Cliffe, the hand gestures, the takingyourhandoffthewhelltoadjustyourshirtsoyoulookgoodwhileyouovertakeeveryone... It doesn't get more Italian Motorsport than this. Bravo 💪
I had a 156 2.5 V6 for about 11 years and loved it. Replaced it with a GT 3.2 V6 which was fun as well. It's a shame Alfa have stopped making affordable, sporty cars like these.
However proud this makes me to be the owner of a 156SW 2.5. What a great drive and how funny to see and hear there's a true Italian driving this car, swearing and hand gesturing and all! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Paolino Cira interesting to hear that. Great driving, but a shame for him that he can't hear the V6 howling. I'm intrigued though, I wonder if he only uses the rev counter to know when to change gear, or does he feel it? Very cool, regardless. 🍀❤️
5:28 The encouraging steering wheel tap to prepare the lady for the max revs in fifth gear that are about to come. That's how you know this is an Alfa driver! One cannot command such a vehicle, one can merely ask for cooperation and hope that she will comply today..
I have the mere 1.8 and it has this amazing responsiveness in 5th gear at higher speeds....... It's as much a tap to prepare the lady as an acknowledgement to the 'Stephen King's Christine' type spirit that possesses you when you get in it and go...... And this driver has some bottle as well as faith in the old girl....
Dude is using that understeer to get him at up for the next corner. Total commitment every where on that lap. If this is without the quafe upgrade then there may be hope for that corner push.
Just bought my first Alfa ,147 TI ,my dream is to drive a 147 or 156 gta version , hopefully I will do it in the next few years ,this engine is amazing ,a true masterpiece.
The good thing about these type of cars is that since they are FWD, they are very forgiving with how much throttle you give it when turning, even if you floor it, it will just understeer and not spin out.
il pilota ha fatto miracoli; grande motore, sono commosso, ce l'ho avuto anche io sulla 90, lo riconosco, sembra voler girare sempre più in alto. Unico.
Sembravi Han Solo sul Millenium Falcon a caccia di Tiefighter, ci mancava solo Chewbecca di fianco che ri guardava dicendo " hweeieeieeieeeooow"! Grande emozione. Grazie.
Fantastic piloting of the vehicle. Putting much more powerful and expensive vehicles to shame. Needs to drop the over-revs on the up-change and to lose that reflective shit from near the windscreen. Brilliant driving!!
5:52 when he checks his watch he knows he need a turbo on it HAHA the gta is awsome and believe it or not an awsome track machine too ive tracked my 147GTA multiple times
Tra tutti e video ke hai fatto, questi con l’alfa sono i video ke più danno l’impressione di velocità . Anke se con Audi o bmw eri più veloce, con alfa perché la macchina è più vecchia da l’impressione di velocità pura dura. Complimenti e se puoi fai altri giri e deliziaci . Grande Frank
Worlds most amazing & best gas powered 6 l-cylinder engine of all time!🍀👍💪☺️ I've taken a 3.0 V6 24V Busso out of an '99 Alfa 166 automatic and built it in my '98 Alfa 156 instead the 2.5 V6 24V Busso and combinated it with the shorter 6-speed 2.5 gearbox... I've done this work in 2008...and the result was/IS an beast of an Busso powered Alfa Romeo 156! Even also because i've modifed this 156 with a KW Thread-suspension and also with 8.5& 10J 18" rims... The 10j rims at the rearend with an offset of 0! The 156 is in the deep black Nero 601 and RED Momo leather inside. It's so wide with that 10J, 0 Offset stance, soo wide and also deep.. 225/40 & 245/35 ZR18 tires... It's so elegant like a Mafia Boss Limousine, combinated with that wheels and only a deep front Spoiler at the stock bumpers. And so it's not only elegant, der it's also soo evil looking too. But the most amazing thing is that PERFORMANCE! The combination of an only 1350kg Alfa 156 from 1st Generation (98) with the shorter 6-speed gearbox of the 2.5 Busso...and this Euro 2 226hp 3.0 Busso uses also headers without cat's out of stock. It's also a lot more faster than every 3.2 GTA! Yes, i Love this Alfa!🍀💪☺️💘
Driver's fit perfectly in this car. I'm owner of a GTA and I'm totally in love with her. I also have a 4C... Two stunning cars only few people could fully understand!
alfa159srb thank you, I wish the same for you!! In Italy we have a giant bunch of dickheads that continue to say that Audi RS4 are better than the Giulia.. poor idiots.. Elsewhere everyone love the Giulia and Italian's don't. It's so sad!
People that dont understand a 156GTA or a 4C have never driven them for sure, although the sound(especially the Busso in the GTA) and sight of both cars should already given them a hint.
Would definitely save up for a limited slip diff. I have one, great upgrade - and I don’t even drive on track, so I can only imagine how much use you could make of it.
imho if swapped 2,5 for 3,0 or 3,2 into 156, he could contest with M3 :D But serie 2,5 v6 got ~7,3 sec for 0-100 km/h, which is pretty nice for an old and casual FWD car. 156 with 3.0 v6 is much faster than 156 GTA, because of weight (ironic, because GTA stands for "lightweight gran turismo", but it's actually ~100 kg heavier).
" How was traffic today, dear?"
" The usual,- Porsche, BMW, Mercedes, Audi, a guy on a bike,- all in my rear view mirror..."
V6 Busso is not an engine is a work of art ❤❤❤❤❤
V6 Alfa is a masterpiece.
Best V6 ever
Understeer like crazye
@@SparkySlow you literally yesterday heard for GTA and watched car throttle video and made you "opinion".....
@@SparkySlow Not with proper suspension and lsd diff
@@markopejovic8297 he is right ,I know ,I own one..

Yess

The one to blame is not alfa but fiat
On the other hand, 156 with 2.5 V6 can be had for pennies these days..
Giulietta 1750 Tbi 240hp is super fun and affordable, buy this is your last year to buy one.
@ You're right. That does look like a fun car. I might just buy one! Thank you for pointing it out.
Lightly used Giulia’s are pretty cheap now 😬
However proud this makes me to be the owner of a 156SW 2.5. What a great drive and how funny to see and hear there's a true Italian driving this car, swearing and hand gesturing and all! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
Seems that only we italians use gestures …what’s so funny?
@@carldock5223 a me piace un botto sta cosa... comunque in realtà ci so altri paesi dove gesticolano.
India per esempio, ed altri paesi Asiatici.
@user-jm4ij6qd7w 😆 => 🤌
I had Alfa Romeo 155 V6 and It was very good car. I never forget of him.
5:23 checking his watch like he's late for work :))))) and the tapping few second later :)))))
I keep coming back for the sound. Only for that heavenly sound. Grazie mille.
He finds ways of moving the shifter you never knew existed, and tries them all out in one lap.
Hahahah, literately
@@alfa159srb BRAVISSIMO, complimentoni!
@@alfa159srb sei un cazzo di omo!!! Ho goduto come un riccio con sto video.
Che mito!!!
RIP gearbox
Good car, good driver
Driver is pushing it to the limits almost entire lap, but I'm impressed how this car holds in bends
The 156 V6 is pretty neutral when it is pushed to the limits. The Alfa engineers did a very good job!
Haha this guy is so Italian.... the hand gestures, the way he changes gear, everything!
AH AH AH you are right!! Being Italian, everything looks so familiar to me, although he looks a bit temperamental LOL
Jesus Christ, an Italian way of shifting gears....are you in love with him, or do you think there are 1000 ways of shifting gears.
You Sir.. have balls like coconuts! Amazing driving! 🍀
I think she is a women
@@banmadabon his voice is like that, because Frank is deaf. Anyway he's an EXCELLENT driver!
Paolino Cira interesting to hear that. Great driving, but a shame for him that he can't hear the V6 howling. I'm intrigued though, I wonder if he only uses the rev counter to know when to change gear, or does he feel it? Very cool, regardless. 🍀❤️
@@anthonypetty9288 Shame he has shaved hands and jewelerry on them. Total transvestite.
@@anthonypetty9288 I think he can feel the engine reving.
5:28 The encouraging steering wheel tap to prepare the lady for the max revs in fifth gear that are about to come.
That's how you know this is an Alfa driver!

I think it's not his first time around there but even so that is some awesome driving. Respect.
This guy drives like me when I was going out for emergency supplies during lock down..!
Ahhhahaaahahahh!!!!!
Dude is using that understeer to get him at up for the next corner. Total commitment every where on that lap. If this is without the quafe upgrade then there may be hope for that corner push.
Now this is a driver that knows his car and what a car this is.😍Amazing driving !
Grandissimo! Portabandiera dei colori Alfa Romeo! Complimenti per la guida, il coraggio e il sangue freddo BRAVISSIMO e ottimo esempio di guida!
Just bought my first Alfa ,147 TI ,my dream is to drive a 147 or 156 gta version , hopefully I will do it in the next few years ,this engine is amazing ,a true masterpiece.
F***ing good job my friend !
Extraordinary driving, with a sublime soundtrack.
What a lap!!!!! Forza Italia!!!
The pilot and the car 👌👌👌
The good thing about these type of cars is that since they are FWD, they are very forgiving with how much throttle you give it when turning, even if you floor it, it will just understeer and not spin out.
Wooow..that was huuuge understeer there on the first corner..and on every corner after that 😂
Thumbs up for the driver though 👍🖒
Bellisimo. I love Alfa. The most beautiful cars.
respect for driver and busso
il pilota ha fatto miracoli; grande motore, sono commosso, ce l'ho avuto anche io sulla 90, lo riconosco, sembra voler girare sempre più in alto. Unico.
Andare a Busso a Bologna è un modo di dire che deriva proprio dal cognome del grande ingegnere
La 156 è un mostro! Pure guidi bene
I love that soft gearbox
Pure heaven!!
Alfa 4 Life.
Cheers from Portugal.
Grande 156 e grande pilota
Bridge to gantry, done that on a 3.0V6 75... definitely a lifetime experience! 🍀
il motore busso è qualcosa di particolare,ottimo pilota
Amazing car, amazing driver! Congratulations my friend! 💯

Fantastic car-driver melange. Busso- legend
Take no prisoners driving 🤘ALFA FOREVER 💥
7:14 Me everytime I rev the Busso above 6k
Fantastic piloting of the vehicle. Putting much more powerful and expensive vehicles to shame. Needs to drop the over-revs on the up-change and to lose that reflective shit from near the windscreen. Brilliant driving!!
Bravo per la guida ! Campione !
6:05! Brutal! 😻💪🏻😤🇮🇹🍀🐍
i am sitting on my Desk watching how he drives and i permantly have the need to push the brake with my Feet under the Desk :D
btw. love Alfa!
Just awesome! Nice driving ;)

Amazing. Well done Sir.
amazing downshifts at Aremberg!
Driver's fit perfectly in this car. I'm owner of a GTA and I'm totally in love with her. I also have a 4C... Two stunning cars only few people could fully understand!
I couldn't agree more :)
I'm currently in love in Giulia QV
alfa159srb the Giulia is a masterpiece.. I haven't drive the Giulia yet, but I planned to buy one in the next 3 years.. Fingers crossed!
I wish you a good luck :)
It's really a great car, no matter if you like Alfa Romeo or not
alfa159srb thank you, I wish the same for you!!
In Italy we have a giant bunch of dickheads that continue to say that Audi RS4 are better than the Giulia.. poor idiots.. Elsewhere everyone love the Giulia and Italian's don't. It's so sad!

Amazing driver! Just perfect!!!
Amazing song for amazing car 🐍🇮🇹
Toca muito a nave na pista, que espetáculo, i can't say it in another worlds, Nice man realy nice drive.
Maraviglia! 🍀👏👏👏👏👏👏
Would definitely save up for a limited slip diff. I have one, great upgrade - and I don’t even drive on track, so I can only imagine how much use you could make of it.
-Great driver
-Amazing sound
-What an engine
-Poor tires
-I think shorter gear ratio (let me know please I'm curious )
I'm a V8 kind of guy but this sound is definitely a close second
I owned a 3.2 with catback wizard, oh boy....what a sound!
Just goes to show you don't need a 'quick' car to have fun on a track day
God job driver
espectacular!
Man that E46 M3 driver, and the dude in the Porsche, need to give those cars back
Awesome lap
I miss the sound of the V6 but I don't miss that massive understeering. Very well driven though.
Complimenti 👍🇮🇹
Emozionatissimo.......e le tedesche dietro!!!
super super..alfa u
Bravissimo 🇮🇹
Great driver!!!
I ta e46 co pomyka obok😂 busso majstersztyk tylko w dźwięku cenach i spalaniu😬 a kierowca pierwsza klasa☺️
Bravo ! Grande GTA
Extraordinario vídeo! Scrivo dal Cile 🇨🇱. Anche ho una 156 V6 😍. C’è il video del tachimetro e del contagiri?

Много добар ауто. Сјајно, свака част!
There were a few times I thought he was gonna lose it. Those tires were barely gripping
Wow 2nd gear ,,tyre screech
Good car
156 GTA with his fabulous V6 , amazing driver / PORCHE and BMW down
Very good driver
