@@lain_1262 Yes sir, I'll be 80 in three months time and I'm still enjoing my rare steak with sprouts,still driving my 1972 Ford Escort Mk 1 and still servicing my woman three times a week.
I grew up as a small boy with these Alfa's. Our last one was sold forty years ago. Every time I see one it still gives me a thrill. Quite simply one of the sexiest cars ever , the sound of that engine flat out is amazing.
If any “car enthusiast” thinks that electric cars will EVER replace this, I don’t give a fat rats clacker if they do 0-100 in -1 sec, they are fools ! FOOLS ! The modern car can’t even replace this, aural, visceral, beautiful delight !!!!!!!!!!!!!
That’s what horse drawn chariot riders used to say about cars! I love Alfa’s, had a GTV6 for 18 years, now a Giulia, but I know we can’t stop progress, things change and we find new passions and beauty in change as well

GTAM was never a cheap car....it was made as a factory race car with aluminum body and all kinds of trick gear. But your are right....a regular GTV is a fantastic car.
Same box in the 2.0 Berlina I tuned and drove in CO, 1976. Auto Delta Rally Prepped for Roy Romer... on the clay of his air strip and clay roads up and down his mountain.
@@375GTB Yes, the same box worked great for over 20 years or so...From the first serie Giulia 1600 up to the latest 2000cc. engined models. A smooth,quick,tough gearbox. When the 2000 ran out of production the Alfetta era began: luckily the same engine was retained albeit the gearbox was placed on the rear axle and this caused a downgrade of the performance which was still acceptable yet not even comparable with the former front placed gearbox.
@@checkeredflagfilms Yes man,you're on the ball:-) Watching the video from the beginning we can see the driver upshifting from 1st to 2nd: a different pattern from the classic regular Alfa g.box.I have no recollection if that pattern was stock on GTAm series.

All this eco friendly talk is fine. But someone should actually assess the impact of the energy and methods used to make batteries. And someone should speak about the disposal of the said batteries. So it isn’t as if Electric Vehicles are completely Saintly and Fossil Fuels are completely Devilish. So lets not kid ourselves....
This car is my passion since 1974. I'm 67 years old now, and I still dream about having it one day.
Same here man, i am 80 next year and I have always yearned for this Alfa but can only yearn as the dosh is outta reach..
still alive?
@@lain_1262 YES...BUT NOW ALMOST 69.

There is just something in the olive oil from Italy that must inspire the Italian engineers to produce such passionate products.
Ma che cavolo di motore ha?! Non finisce mai di andare su!!! Adrenalina, adrenalina, adrenalina!!! 👍👍👍🇮🇹🏆🥇

Alfa Romeo - POWER & SOUND & SPEED... I'm lovin' it...
Il rombo delle alfa è unico
dude is just chilling driving the car, amazing
Love the car and what a beautiful noise it makes
God bless the shifter, the sound makes my day
Alfa is a my beloved carbrand. Alfa 2000 gt am - is wonderful! Sound - is se best!
Bravo hai una guida pulita. Gran mezzo.
che suono meraviglioso
Fantasticaaaaaa!!!!
Grande pilota....lancia le marce come francobolli, disegna curve con compasso

That sound rivals Puccini and Verdi
Spettacolo Adrenalina pura
His shifting! Amazing
the beast of the 60s❤️🇮🇹🍀🔥
Spettacolare 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Amo quell'rombo ....rombo Alfa lo chiamo io!😘❤
che rombo fantastica
Now, THIS is proper racing. The flexibility these old cars offered is just amazing, not like the modern shit that's gigantic and heavy as lead.
What a marvellous design have this car. I won't bet up with, even all the cars running around were the same model.
I'm a Porsche guy but always felt I should have gotten one of these when they were cheap.

Hah? An Alfa Romeo GTA/GTAM cost more than a street Porsche 911.
@@arseniokalugdan3679 Not a GTAM but a GTA. They WERE down into the $3,000s at one time. Most beautiful sedan ever made.
@@jockellis they were never that cheap, your probably talking about a normal step front
@@jaymyers6452 yes, the street car. I can remember seeing cars in Autoweek for practically nothing. Like a 289 Cobra for $3,500.

Even over the TZ...

Adrenalina pura
No matter where...Italy/Germany/England - anywhere - we ALL speak this language.
Il suono dell'alfa è paragonabile a una sinfonia
Grande biscia

アルファもだけどこのおっちゃんもすこぶる格好良いね！
Effen awesome.

You can tell by the way he looks and shifts that gear lever he's not fuckn around.
super !

Wow, thats a bit scary just watching this video, as though sitting in the passenger seat!
this car deserves a better driver u.u
GTAM !!!!
Numero 35 top
Yeah!
Le auto cattive hanno la prima in basso: non lo sapevate?
sesine kurban yaaa
Scusa ma le luci posteriori mi sembrano quelle della gtv 2000.
The direction is hard
Quand une alpha prend son pied ...
Nobody drive on the ears,
it's a myth, so shut the ...
That way !
YEAH!
The GTAm that raced in Angola in the 1970's and now in Italy?
damn that i4 sounds like a v8
Ha la prima in basso, il cambio è colotti?
Da come mette le marce sembra proprio il cambio colotti
shifting like my grand mother on holidays
set up the mirror on race......!!!!
And steering like a granny taking her first driving lesson (thumbs up to the car itself, though)
The suspension needs some tweaks. The car is behaving a bit twitchy.
è il motore più arrabbiato di tutti.... una volta in Italia costruivano le automobili....
