Alfa 147 red or white?

[mic84]

hi,

plan to respray my car. which color looks nicer on a 147?

[v_sach]

gambar curi... very cun this whitie..

[stevo]

White!

[raitag]

for coupe?

[freeBSD]

Owning a white car I can say it's a bitch to make her look clean all the time. Polishing a white car can give u little effect, so plus or minus point.

While red, doesnt look dirty easily. Polish and wax will give u that gloss and wet look, a stunner. If you leave it untreated under the sun, it will have diff shades (kaler mati).

As for Redd, i dont know ler. Lu tgk sendiri.

[Greencloverleaf]

what colour is it now?

[Greencloverleaf]

my wife's 146 in GTi Red gets LOTS of compliments!

[shukree]

RED !!!

[Racer_Lobb]

MERAH!!

[invisibleghost]

white is bitch to maintain

[shukree]

White also nice. The shade on the new MiTo is classic.

But it depends on: is the car kept in an enclosed garage/basement at most times, are you a detailing buff?, how often do you feel the urge to wash your car?, etc.

Then, white can be a good choice.

Cheers!!

How abt a lil bit of red and white?..actually the white is a lot easier to maintain...you cant see the dust or finer scratches...red is a bitch..I have both!

[rkbella33]

for coupe?

bianco polare...yellowish white

[freeBSD]

water stain on white is more apparent than on any color. Not to mention some tar smears here and there...

And once you detailed ur car, red will give more satisfaction. With white, the difference is less.

[mash]

WHITE..

[TwinSparx]

SILVER

**cabut**

[mic84]

my wife's 146 in GTi Red gets LOTS of compliments!

My 156 also gets lotsa compliments because it is red (Rosso Corsa). Red is definitely striking and nice!

However, with the 147...I think white looks nicer on it! Seen white and red 147s...I prefer the white.

RK's white 147 looks really really nice! The other red bella looks great as well! Beautifully detailed! Can see a lot of TLC put into the rides!

No la..where got syiok...
this is not rosso corsa red...it's the SAGA BLM red...any paint shop has the color code..

[invisibleghost]

ini merah from spray can lah, cat belakang rumah

[freeBSD]

Sumer salah.

Ini merah el poste la. Or in english, Pejabat Pos.

[invisibleghost]

wah, pos laju new vehicle

[freeBSD]

pos laju guna alfa u sure reliable ker? selespeed la, timing belt putus la, starter kong la, immobilizer rosak laaa..

back to the topic, alfa is no ferrari but have you seen ferrari in white? my opinion, white is nice but red is nicerrrrr.. u dun want to be second best rite? hahahahah

[mic84]

hahahhaa..true that. so, whats the closest shade of red to the ferrari? cause i cant seem to find the colour code for ferrari..dont have rite?

There are a few sheds of red for the Ferraris. You can ask the paintshop boss to pull out the catalogs and show you the different sheds.

I was contemplating between the Rosso Corsa and the Scuderia red at that time. The Scuderia red had a whiter base and did not look so deep like the Rossa Corsa.

You can ask the guys to spray a sample of each shed for you to see and decide.

Cheers!

[Redd]

normally id say red, but not everyone can - or dares - to carry that colour. i also find that red really brings out the lines in the italian cars.

white on the 147 is nice too, but u gotta be sure to get the stock alfa white - i think its called arctic white. its got a slight cream tone to it. the pure white white some ahbengs use on their civics (and think its honda championship white) is ugly.

You dont have to tell us again! Your nickname already indicates this!

With the white, yes...some of their sheds are yellowish and ugly!

Btw, what is wrong with the Honda championship white? It looks quite nice on the Type-Rs. You bias and against Hondas ar?!

[Redd]

i like honda championship white, its a lot like the alfa arctic white. the pure white white some of the ahbengs use is ugly.

Saw a beautifully painted 156 SW at emech on Monday.

Owner claims its the 8C red. Colour code, 220B, Glasurit. Wish I have the pix to post here. The color is basically metallic with a red shade lacquer finish. Fuiyyohhh!!!

[freeBSD]

I wud go with that *c color. Metallic easier to maintain as well.

redd

Ahhh! Sorry! I read wrongly and misunderstood you! My mistake!

[rkbella33]

totally agree...paint the car "pearl" or "camry" white...
I saw one 147 Pearl white...different strokes for different people, owner was mighty proud though

[mic84]

will definitely check out the 8c red too..akkakaka

[junbecks]

the white on a 147 makes it looks cool and composed. Not many small cars can pull off white but on the 147 its like a match made in Milan.

the race red or maybe the alfa red makes the car look menacing and ready to pounce. Again, not many cars can pull of this kind of red normally associated with Ferraris.


If you're looking for something thats gets your heart pumping before even stepping in the car get the red. But if you want a car that looks confident and doesnt have to shout its way around, get the white.

For real enthusiasts (and rightly especially Alfistis) would know cars are all about emotions. Not a piece of metal.

[nt8285]

Very well said Jun! I agree with you!

[shukree]

Agreed as well.

Some days, I wish my bella is red but on some other days, I felt its just as well that it's fantasy blue.......arrgghhh!!!! decisions, decisions....

[Raziack]

no multicolor paint ah.. when cold is red and when hot is white..

[AR4G]

get your car paint one side red, one side white.

[mic84]

hahahahaha.yea..agree with junbecks. cant wait after CNY ler, when the paint shops will take in cars. till then, guys, happy CNY & happy holidays!

[Raziack]

one side red and another white,
suddenly u see many people waving at the car..
as getting noticed the driver chest will bloat out with pride..
not knowing everyone has mistaken the car for a taxi..
hehehehehhe
taxi proton iswara.. generasi baru..
155hp iswara
