I keep watching this video every two months or so for many years. What a great way to remember that the Alfa Romeo's from that era are so beautiful and entertaining in the same time! They are pure passion, joy and fun on wheels! Pure Love! That is exactly what is missing from most of today's boring , everyday cars. They became just a transportation. FORZA ALFA ROMEO!👍
My first car which i bought two weeks ago is a '73 Alfa 1600 GT Junior ;) i've loved Alfa ever since i was a kid. It's a real dream come true to own it, especially as my first car. Now i just have to restore it before i'm gonna drive it!
The thing about this channel isn't just the fantastic cars that it features, but also the wonderful owners who so well compliment them. Keep it up guys this is really one of the best.
I honestly cannot stop watching this video again and again... Alfa Romeo is a disease and this guy prooves it :) Alfas are so very much agressive and full of emotion. I bought my first Alfa 75 after owning a BMW E36 and as much as I liked the beemer, I would say that this Alfa Romeo gives me so much more in terms of pleasure and unique experience
My uncle had a Berlina 2000, he had a head on accident with a steamroller at 60 mph. He survived with a few missing teeth. The Bella was a total loss except for the sump guard which hardly had any scratch. What a car.
The 1750 is in Wes Ingram's shop being refreshed. I will keep as much of the exterior and interior as possible. I hope to show it at Concorso Italiano,
They should have another episode with this guy highlighting all the other cars he owns in more detail. Stunning. And who were the 39 yohos who gave this a thumbs down???
It really boggles my mind how many pretty cars Alfa have made over their long history. Every manufacturer has their ups and downs in terms of design, but nobody kept making so many good looking cars so consistently. Even their most simple and minimalistic looking cars have little something to catch your eye. Little quirk that gives it definitive personality.
Seriously love anyone that has a passion for cars like this guy! This guy is inspiring to me; having a dream of owning lots of cars and achieving one car at a time. I know it will take time but I cannot wait to own a collection of cars I love! Also subscribing, these edits of classic cars and their owners story are truly inspiring to me!
Glad you guys are covering Alfas! Everyone should drive a nice, sorted, classic alfa at some point in their life to see what they are missing out on. I'm an AE86 nut in public but an Alfa hoarder offline.
You are the BEST! That was soo cool. You have a warning, but you are an inspiration. Your driving style and passion for driving race cars daily is invigorating!
Alfa owes a lot, really a lot, to it's USA fans. I could not have imagined that someone, even a collector &Alfa Romeo enthusiast that keeps a garage with so many Alfas. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations
I'm a born car enthusiast, embedded in my DNA, as the few of you can also relate. Make that, a True Automobile Enthusiast because I've also got a passion for trucks, and anything else with an engine. Enough about me, I have just bumped into this channel, which surprised me because I thought I've seen them all or, at least the best already, and it's great. Good editing, great cinematography, but, I think these should be at least 20-30 minutes. Much more detailed specifics can be added. Continue
Este es el coche por el que sentia una especial atraccion en mi adolescencia,me entretenia en dibujarlo una y otra vez de tanto que me gustaba,cuando veia alguno circulando era un verdadero gozo seguirlo con la mirada hasta que lo perdia de vista. Muchas gracias amigo por haberme recordado aquellos años. Aun me encanta este coche con pasion. Saludos desde las Islas Canarias 🇮🇨🚗🇮🇨
When he said, "I buy cars like other people buy Tacos." did it for me right there. That some insanely cocky sh*t right there, but I know his wife gives him plenty of grief about his "Toys" all the time.
I have watched this video easily 20 or 30 times. I love everything about it. The car, the sound, the guy’s style. Love the music. What is the Spanish guitar song?
I am in love with your channel, the cars you include and the characters you show. Please continue to make these wonderful videos because it feels so good to be a petrol-head again.
Got my first Alfa in 1967, a '64 registered 101Sprint Normale. A long series of Alfas followed. That first car got me into restoration, a must given the way Alfas rust. I loved them but finally gave them up. I did meet a lot of good people in the DC club, I miss that. I now live in NH and have a 2016 Mazda MX-5, a spiritual successor to the Spiders I had, the last a '59 750 Spider I restored. Sacrilegious I know but the car is great fun, too bad it doesn't have the Alfa shield on the nose.
Great video. Congatulations to Manuel Leon Minassian for collecting all these cars. Probably, they would all end up as a carbage but he gives them a chance to show for what are they made for. So awesome.
Henry Ford once said - everytime I see an Alfa Romeo, I lift my hat in admiration. Wonderful collection for the Alfa Nut - the real term being Alfisti or fan of Alfa Romeo

ALFA: Always Looking For Another. I'm not looking for more but have a GTV6 now with a 3.0L engine & Milano Verde transaxle w/LSD, plus a Milano Verde (Alfa 75 elsewhere). Took my Verde to the national convention in the US this year, drove it at the track day at Sears Point, and drove back. Over 2000 miles round trip. What a lot of fun.
It's so easy to think this guy is a bit nuts, but one day alpha romeo or some one with enough money will buy this guys entire collection and make it into a museum or even a business restoring as many as people are willing to pay to have restored...and then he will be forever remembered as a hero and a truly remarkable person!!
This guy is really sympathetic and I like his driving style: Drive it like you stole it :D Not many collectors would drive like that
I keep watching this video every two months or so for many years. What a great way to remember that the Alfa Romeo's from that era are so beautiful and entertaining in the same time!

FORZA ALFA ROMEO!👍
I had Berlina 1750.....
"When I see an Alfa Romeo go by, I take my hat off.”
Henry Ford (1939)
I TIP MY HAT................GET IT RIGHT
Did he really say that? I kinda hope it's true
its true! you can google!
Me too!!!
I read he said: "I raise my hat"
The videography of those videos is absolutely stunning. Timing, cuts, grading...all of it is top notch.
So that's where all the Alfas I've been looking for went
do want one i have one forsale
@@jonminnella2168 I'd love to, where you located?
An Alfa as a first car... Daaammmnnn son.
and im one of those lucky ones :P
Dario kruzk so true, in such a good way :)
George Washingturnt Alfa as first car? Sigh, my first was an A112 -___-
My first car which i bought two weeks ago is a '73 Alfa 1600 GT Junior ;) i've loved Alfa ever since i was a kid. It's a real dream come true to own it, especially as my first car. Now i just have to restore it before i'm gonna drive it!
+Brandon Nesset My first car is also an Alfa :3
Mr. Manuel Leon Minassian
I am proud to announce
you are an Italian man "Honoris causa"
"I started buying cars like some people would buy... tacos."
I wonder how does he fund his way into buying cars whenever he likes… Not to mention the space it takes to have that many.
I'm definitely a little embarrassed by how many tacos I've purchased.
He shines shoes
When the shots popped through his car collection, my jaw dropped. JESUS CHRIST ! What a collection!
The thing about this channel isn't just the fantastic cars that it features, but also the wonderful owners who so well compliment them.
Keep it up guys this is really one of the best.

I just added my third Berlina. It is a 1971 1750. I'm surely not catching up to Manuel, but he is an inspiration.
The 1750 is in Wes Ingram's shop being refreshed. I will keep as much of the exterior and interior as possible. I hope to show it at Concorso Italiano,
A man after my own heart! It's so hard to find anyone in the States who understands being obsessed with old Alfas!
Love the slogan "drive it like you stole it". We say the same thing here in the US. Car guys are the same all over the world. Respect
I'd like to be making the kind of money it takes to buy Alfas like they're tacos...
They should have another episode with this guy highlighting all the other cars he owns in more detail. Stunning. And who were the 39 yohos who gave this a thumbs down???
You're probably one of the few people on earth who can understand my passion for alfa romeo.
Everything in this video is pure art. I'm so glad there are people like this car collector and Petrolicious crew.
this guy has reached a level of gearhead-inner-peace that few people will ever reach.
story in the beginning was priceless
Love the story about what his dad did after he drove blindingly fast past him in the taxi...sideways!!! Priceless!!!
It really boggles my mind how many pretty cars Alfa have made over their long history. Every manufacturer has their ups and downs in terms of design, but nobody kept making so many good looking cars so consistently. Even their most simple and minimalistic looking cars have little something to catch your eye. Little quirk that gives it definitive personality.
The Jay Leno of affordable cars.
Not so affordable anymore I'm affraid
wow. What a great collection, what a great passion, what a great video.
Seriously love anyone that has a passion for cars like this guy! This guy is inspiring to me; having a dream of owning lots of cars and achieving one car at a time. I know it will take time but I cannot wait to own a collection of cars I love!

Proper petrol head this bloke. I´d probably faint walking into his garage. And to the 17 BMW drivers disliking this video... sod off!
BMW Drivers? Excuse me? Uncalled for man...
Fred Bob well they are competitors technically.......... not meant to start a war
I am BMW driver,but i also love Alfa's,acutali i own Alfa 156 sedan
Sayn something like that is rude
I thing Alfa and BMW drivers have similar taste. Like me i own both. But my favorite is the 156 2.5 V6 !!!
Thank you Petrolicios, this video (as well as all of your other ones) put the biggest smile on my face.
Glad you guys are covering Alfas! Everyone should drive a nice, sorted, classic alfa at some point in their life to see what they are missing out on. I'm an AE86 nut in public but an Alfa hoarder offline.
That is why I can't get a nice old car. He bought all of them. Damn!
Keep looking
Un vero gioiello di macchina l alfa romeo era la migliore negli anni 70.
L Alfa Romeo 2000 berlina disegnata da Bertone che meraviglia.
Keep collecting Manuel! So many car people are jealous of what you have done! Bravo!
You are the BEST! That was soo cool. You have a warning, but you are an inspiration. Your driving style and passion for driving race cars daily is invigorating!
What a great, well made film. High quality footage, interesting angles, engaging interview. Will watch more of your films.
A true alfista. Great video, great character
Alfa owes a lot, really a lot, to it's USA fans. I could not have imagined that someone, even a collector &Alfa Romeo enthusiast that keeps a garage with so many Alfas. WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations
Fantastic, as always. I only wish they were longer.
I still Come back to watch this vidéo.
Thank you. ❤️
You can never have too many alfas. You get one and before you know it you have another then another

His wife is a saint!
How many spouses would let the guy get past two?
No wife, happy life
I'm from Brazil and I have an Alfa 2300 1976, congratulations for your collection...
I have watched this video easily 20 or 30 times. I love everything about it. The car, the sound, the guy’s style.
Love the music. What is the Spanish guitar song?
thumbs up to this man
The personality of the car is awesome
Cars of character, people of character. I love this channel.
I am in love with your channel, the cars you include and the characters you show. Please continue to make these wonderful videos because it feels so good to be a petrol-head again.
Dear compatriot, your ALfa is simply FANTASTIC !!!
That Alfa is one amazing looking car, would love to own one some day.
Love the opening story! Great job Petro......!!!
I want to own an Alfa so badly!!
Got my first Alfa in 1967, a '64 registered 101Sprint Normale. A long series of Alfas followed. That first car got me into restoration, a must given the way Alfas rust.

2018 now and the music is very amazing. What an invincible video!
Man I love this guy. I come back to this video every couple of months just to see what crazy car nuts are out there.
That man has real Alfa passion. Love his story !!!
Thanks Jordan! I missed them earlier on.
This is a really GREAT channel, thanx.
Great video. Congatulations to Manuel Leon Minassian for collecting all these cars. Probably, they would all end up as a carbage but he gives them a chance to show for what are they made for.
So awesome.
Manuel, keep going with your passion and keep enjoying it; that is what make people happy
