XM commercial

[Guest Anonymous]

Has anyone seen the XM commercial running with the red car? I know it's not an '02, but it's one of the lookalikes. Datsun 510 or Alfa or something?

I've only seen the commercial once.

Cool ad though.

It is a Gulia Sprint GT. Smaller iner headlights and the exposed

front hood lip. 1600cc and not a 1750....

If it has 4 lights on the front, it isn't a 1600 Giulia Sprint GT -- they only have two 7" lights. AFAIK all step-nose cars have only 2 headlamps, and beginning with the 1750 GTV Alfa added the smaller fog lamps and made the hood flush. Grills and lights can be swapped between years, so it's possible that someone put later lights in an earlier car.

If the car looks more like a 2002 (i.e. a sedan), it's a Giulia, or a Giulia Super.

DOH... Your right. I forgot that the Sprint GT didn't have 4 lights.

The one in the ad maybe from the early sixties as it has only a

single bar in the L & R front grills. Our 67 (1600cc; dual webers)

has three bars in front, side grills. It *could* be a GT Junior

(1300cc), but it is definitely within the Giulia Sprint GT line. The

GTVs were quite diffent in body style.

Now, if only it were a GTA! That would be cool.

I started out with one of those. We'll not go there...

The later 116 series Alfetta GT and GTV were different; the 105/115 series 1750 and 2000 GTV were the same body as all Giulia GT's. All the same sheet metal except for the nose/hood when they eliminated the stepnose, and the rear panel on 1750/2000 GTV's for the larger rear lights.
