Encouraging, but maybe lease?

Always lease Range Rovers...

...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.

me and my wife loved our test drives in it.
By: Dchang81 : July 5th, 2023-21:57
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...
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😁
By: @lberti : July 6th, 2023-20:15
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 😉 ...
