me and my wife loved our test drives in it.

part of the reason I want to get a Maserati Grecale Trofeo. I researched the crap out of it, would be nice as a second car, not sure I'd trust it as a daily. there was a section on the Alfa forums dedicated to "I have no problems with my Alfa!" when I was tracking things for months, no exaggeration even with the most ardent Alfa fans, there was no activity in that thread for over a month and previously there were daily posts. my friend on his test drive the engine stopped and wouldn't restart. the dealer had to send someone to pick them up, but loved it and got it anyways

Always lease Range Rovers...
By: mdg : July 5th, 2023-20:04
...and anything Italian : ) That being said, I have a friend who bought an early version of the Giulia and he said it's been very reliable. The only downside I see is no manual transmission option. One upside is never losing the car in a parking lot fille...
Hmmmm… I guess for every rule there’s an exception….

I’ve owned three Range Rovers and two Maseratis and kept every one of them for 7-8 years or longer. All five were incredibly reliable. Now, my Jags, that’s a different story…..
Do you drive low mileage?
By: patrick_y : July 6th, 2023-08:10
Maybe you've been lucky and maybe you drive below average mileage. Average mileage in USA (according to the EPA) is around 15,000 miles a year. I've never heard of anyone saying a Range Rover was reliable. Range Rover Sport platform is generally more reli...
You know what they say …

You’re not a true car enthusiast until you’ve owned an Alfa.
Firstly, that is the best color, I love it!
By: MichaelC : July 5th, 2023-20:35
Before I bought my CT5-V Blackwing, I test drove one of those. I was really set on a manual transmission and the glorious supercharged V8. But I really liked the Giulia Quadrifoglio. Much more engaging than a BMW M car. But still nothing close to the Cadd...
had a 2018 G Quad

the alfa was a great car. just got bored with an auto and went g80 M3 manual.
It is too perfect
By: Weems@8 : July 5th, 2023-20:51
I would explain the title. If things are too perfect, i would not love it. The Giulia is over the top great. If the tail lights of a car are stomp or a roof line odd, than i would jump for joy. So i could be very happy in a Nissan GT-R. And i guess i am t...
Buy it !!!!
By: bimbeano : July 5th, 2023-21:02
But please consider a big healthy life insurance as well ;-) This cat is a maniac, a friend of mine had one and even had it tuned to over 600 hp ... which made it even more maniac. After a year or two he decided to sell it for several obvious reasons (lif...
Me !!!!
By: bimbeano : July 5th, 2023-22:22
I don't even want to look at it, let alone drive it ... I'm too young to die But it is one amazing car I must admit, a masterpiece.

Life is short, I’d pick one up
By: compa : July 5th, 2023-23:30
Seems like an incredibly fun car to drive, based on all of the discussion. You mentioned elsewhere it’s not your daily driver, so enjoy!!
she is amazing
By: Gelato Monster : July 6th, 2023-02:57
the color is even more aristocratic yet also have more racing charm than red. Perhaps you should wait for 6C. I think she will be another 2door goddess like 8c and 4c. But if you want a Sedan, she has no comparison, she is the utmost beautiful sedan today...
yes
By: Gelato Monster : July 6th, 2023-10:46
Wow!!!
By: amanico : July 6th, 2023-16:53
that would be epic
By: Gelato Monster : July 6th, 2023-10:45
Personally other than italian bespoke house, only Pagani and Alfa can make insanely beautiful motoring art
I've heard Alfas are getting more reliable
By: JohnFM : July 6th, 2023-04:51
Recent rankings are encouraging, but I'd guess they still have a ways to go. Also, doesn't an Alfa Romeo have to be RED ... by law? ;-)
:))))

Bellissimo
By: Small Wristed One : July 6th, 2023-08:50
The color is a tribute to the vintage “ochre” of 60s Alfas, beautiful!
I like that one very much. The only thing worrying me personally ...
By: Marcus Hanke : July 6th, 2023-11:01
... is the sheer power on the rear wheels only. In our winters, or even on rain-wet roads, this car could be demanding, to say the least. Which is why I considered the Stelvio with the same engine, but all-wheel drive. However, the Stelvio QF was insanely...
Engine with RWD is insanely fun!
By: MichaelC : July 6th, 2023-12:40
I owned a 2022 M4 Comp xDrive before changing to the CT5-V Blackwing. No comparison on driving dynamics, handling, and enjoyment. I would never try AWD again on a sports car/sedan unless I needed to daily the car and use it in inclement weather.
Yep😁

Funky colour!
By: vincentdae : July 7th, 2023-09:23
When you choose an Alfa, it is with the heart: no need to explain anything. Just check it out in green before signing!
Hey Ed
By: cmmnsens : July 7th, 2023-10:29
I own a 2018 and LOVE this car. It’s a daily driver and so much more fun than M3s imo (which I’ve owned). Such a visceral experience and not over engineered. And goes well with my CB 😉 ...
