My FRS is on its second engine because of a relatively common manufacturing issue. It rattles and makes awful noises. Sometimes the clutch rattles in neutral. It has been at the dealer for over two months total in the 16 months I've owned it.
The Alfa is quiet and reliable, using a powertrain thats been around for years in the Giulietta.
I would stay away from the car because changing mods that you dont want costs more than just buying a stock car that you dont have to do anything with. There's just a higher risk of abuse with modded cars in general. Not a sure thing, but there are so many other 86s you can buy.
But hey, let's all just be snarky smartasses.
