My mom has sporty trim version of the Guilia (BIG brakes, nice wheels ETC) but not quad version of the alpha, even with half the power of the quad it’s still a lovely car. The rear brakes are bigger than the front brakes on my Mustang GT lol.
2018 Aston Martin v12 Vantage in white with black trim (Comfortable and fast daily)
2020 Ford Mustang Shelby gt350R (purely for the fun and noise even if there are faster things…. Oh god that voodoo engine)
2023 Alpha Romeo Stelvio quadrofglgoglio (When I need four doors or to move anything bigger than a 6 pack of hard seltzer)
If your vehicle is a 2004 you might be able to relatively easily just get an aftermarket radio with Bluetooth and all that jazz, might liven up your sound system a bit too depending on the quality of the stock unit.
I had winter tires on my 98 eclipse convertible. It was hilarious when like 3 years ago we goat a boatload of snow and our big gravel work parking lot wasn’t plowed. That little thing just crawled through like a foot of snow, while all the bros in their Jeep and trucks with all seasons were struggling to get out of their parking spots.
I will say it was not ideal having a convertible as a winter beater though…
Preparing for the end times, or so you live in the middle of Alaska? Lol
