Compared to smaller Alfa Romeos of the era, nthusiasts have remarked at how solidly constructed the Touring body feels. A full 10 inches of additional wheelbase opens up the cabin experience to one that resembles that of a Ferrari 250 Cabriolet or Maserati 3500 Spyder with equally impressive couch built construction, t a fraction of the cost.
