yesterday I was happy on the AMI2005 in leipzig and immediately ran into hall5. to alfa romeo. and with a joyful glance I stand in front of the 159th a dream. from the front and from the back. wahnsinn. I wanted to ask where I have to sign. but then I look at everything more closely. since I start at the rear doors. not only that the ingenious grip of 156 is gone – no, they have to the place also a mega-hazardous, not fitting, standing off In addition to the fact that the models showed about all processing defects. the split dimensions were terrible. my joyous laugh then went away in the interior. ugly. and I say it again. ugly. especially the middle console. fat, thick, wide. no elegance. especially the 3 air intakes. huge. the round instruments go down completely. everything seems clumsy, like roughly carved. where is the style and then the lever for blinker, light, temp omat on the steering wheel. I thought I was sitting in an opel. terrible. I was really disappointed. I first went to the good old 156 and sat down there. then I felt better again. and I wanted to buy myself a 159. but outside HUI inside PFUI. no, I don’t want that. so. that had to be out!
