You are now an "Alfisti" 😂

You just made a great decision !

Congrats! Nice machine!

Did you check your insurance rates? Have they gone up a lot?

Ouch! That's painful!

Planning a subtle modification ...

You need the historic serpent logo ... ...  

Pretty!

 
 By: patrick_y : April 18th, 2021-10:39

Congrats!

Good car brand choice ...  

Thanks!

Thats btw the one with the special fair trade coating. It was sent back to Maserati in Modena (where the 4C was built as the only non-Maserati) for that job.

You could try a roof rack 🤔

You won’t be alone ...

Yes, if she had an Alfa ....

 
 By: Cpt Scarlet : April 18th, 2021-14:30
She could have outrun smoky 😱

😎

Nice machine there!

Good one!

 
 By: patrick_y : April 18th, 2021-10:40
Hey, your RS4 has a friend now! Ted-Lo's Alfa Romeo!

Maybe but is his a 6-speed manual? 😉

 
 By: India Whiskey Charlie : April 21st, 2021-06:50

Congrats. I remember when the 156 was launched, it was the best looking sedan on the road for a while.

But I never drove one, or any Alfa. And never even stepped in a showroom. Interested to understand how you arrived at this choice. And what else was on the table as competitors. For me, the Alfa is the best looking car in its class right now, so solely on... 

Honestly, I wanted a lot of power, a looker, but didn’t want another BMW/Merc/Audi...

 
 By: K-Lo : April 17th, 2021-15:47
This got great reviews for a driver’s car, thought I would try... I hope it doesn’t break down on me 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️, I have no idea about it’s reliability. The engine alone is supposedly 45k to replace, 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ The price of wanting to be different.... 

Fair, I understand that logic.

 
 By: Jay (Eire) : April 17th, 2021-17:33
It’s a looker no question, and it’s got power. Drive it like you stole it !

I hear that, until it breaks down 🤣🤣🤣😂😂🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Now I need to find a good Alfa dealer... Not all technicians know how to work on a QV

A few unsolicited recommendations...

 
 By: patrick_y : April 18th, 2021-11:01
1. Remember to only do aggressive driving AFTER the engine oil is warmed. Keep in mind, engine oil takes about 15 minutes to warm up while coolant only takes about 5 minutes to warm up. 2. Change the engine oil and filter more often. If the service interv... 

My gas station wouldn't give me a discount!

 
 By: patrick_y : April 20th, 2021-12:38
And gas is very expensive in California!

"Remember, your car has two differentials"

 
 By: India Whiskey Charlie : April 20th, 2021-16:03
Isn't this car RWD? Where is the second differential?

Are you kidding me?

 
 By: JustaGuy : April 17th, 2021-15:47
The sound this thing makes is glorious! What a choice! Live your best life sir

Thank you so much my Sire..

 
 By: K-Lo : April 17th, 2021-15:49
I have about 2400 more break in miles before I open it up.

Awesome!

 
 By: S F : April 17th, 2021-19:21
Did you pick white hoping to be “less visible” on the road😂? Cant wait to read your owner experience on this beast! Enjoy and drive safe!

Haha the Trofeo White is more glamorous than I thought...

 
 By: K-Lo : April 17th, 2021-19:36
I like the Tri- Coat red a lot but that is the most popular color... if I would build it, I would do the tri-coat Montreal green..

That’s miles better than a red BMW

4 Doors is practical.

Thank you my doctor, I thankfully have a Subaru for those errands lol.

And a garage and driveway at my house.
