However, a sports coupe like the Alfa Romeo Brera 1.8 (1.75 TBi) can show a whole host of quirks and characteristics that aren’t obvious from spec sheets or short test drives. They can be as simple as unique operational quirks, or specific driving quirks that only become apparent with regular use. All of it was strewn with peculiarities connected with the car's ergonomics, how the 1 0 75 TBi engine behaves in various states, or how other drivers react. While knowing these quirks will not help you understand how the Brera drives, it does give some insight into the real world ownership experience of the car and is a little bit of both amusing and endearing to owners.
