It has only 85 centimeters in height between the seat and the roof, which is enough to not be constantly rubbing on the ceiling. In general terms a BMW 3 Series Coupe or an Opel Astra Coupe are more comfortable for four occupants, mainly because it has more free space to the roof.

For this fifth occupant car is worth, lack width and the square is very high compared to the other two, the roof is at a distance quite inadequate.

The Alfa Romeo GT Coupe trunk does not have a large volume of cargo and the high (76 cm) but several points that make it very comfortable to use. Firstly, the tailgate has a large opening angle, the interior is very regular (not diminished by the elements of suspension), with flat walls and has elements of both systems to place holds, and four metal rings at the ends.

The 1.9 JTD engine of the Alfa Romeo GT Coupe is 150 hp these engines, which shows a very significant increase in strength when it reaches about 2,000 rpm (as Volkwagen TDI group of similar power) and maintains a significant amount of acceleration and energy when going from 4000 rpm. The level of vibration and harshness that reaches the interior seems small, not a noisy vehicle under acceleration but thoroughly appreciates a high-pitched sound that is not typical of diesel engines.

The Alfa Romeo GT Coupe has made changes to this change to make it faster. The interval between when the driver touched the lever and engages a gear system is shorter than in other Selespeed and also pull the hand that gives the occupants is shorter but sharper than in other versions. The manual changes are similar to a working one other Alfa Romeo, with a rather long journey, but smooth and fast.
