This writer always enjoyed driving in a convertible. Not because he enjoyed driving with the top down, but because the convertible had special lines. During the last few years, we drove a cutlass supreme convertible, a yellow Fiat spider, an MG midget with a pale green paint job, a red Alpha Romeo, a black Toyota MR2, and a Nissan gray. So it was natural for us to visit the Philly Auto Show.

The Philadelphia Auto Show is the perfect place to view the latest preproduction models and catch a glimpse of what will soon be available for purchase at local dealerships. The Philly Auto Show is proud to welcome Alfa Romeo which will feature the 4C Coupe, 4C Spider and 2017 Giulia Quadrifoglio.
