Another Alfa, another Spider—but this time, it’s the mother of the one we featured two days ago: a Giulietta. Not perfect, of course, but more than enough to enjoy the good weather.

No, we couldn’t avoid publishing it. As absurd as this creation might be, it’s impossible not to feel something when seeing it.
