The 80s Giulietta...
....was a waste of a great name. This one is a slightly better effort. Slightly.
Alfa Romeo has, to me, very little to offer anymore beyond its styling differention.
When the Giulietta arrived in the 50s, it was a little 4 cylinder marvel (all alloy engine, DOHC, BIG finned brakes) and oh so pretty. Now?
Alfa Romeo Giulietta
I am interested in your opinion on the current Giulietta which has been with us since 2010. It certainly looks cool and distinguishes itself well from the usual small Audis, VWs and BMWs. It has the history to make its name stand out and the character ...
Yes, I will choose it over a BMW 1 or a VW Golf. Not sure I would answer the same with
The Audi A 1, which I find to be ultra cool. Best, Nicolas
Well, in this case, I find the A 1 a very cool lovely and dynamic car.
I love the A5 too, as well as the R 8. Not all the Audis... Best, my friend. Nicolas.

Along those lines...
I own an '89 Milano Verde, last of the rear-drive Alfas. What an engine (3.0 V6), what handling , and standard Recaros as well... Cheers, Tony C.
Beautiful car ...
.. but not sure about the driving dynamics ... in that case i would choose for the 1-series. Filip
Beautiful car, but BMW 1 series would be my choice...
I haven't driven the Alfa Romeo Giulietta, but I imagine that the BMW 1 series would be the better choice in terms of overall serviceability (more BMW dealers than Alfa dealers in most places in the world), higher reliability, higher engine options, and b...
Very popular here in CH
I would take the Giulietta over the strained 1 series (design brief, make it small, boxy and at least from afar it should look something like a BMW) anyday. The Guilietta is one very good looking car and was on my short list to try before I got caught up ...
I noticed a lot on the roads in CH
I think we may have passed a few in the Elise, Don?! In Australia they haven't got the foothold of the Golf GTI/R or even the BMW 1 Series. But they look nice. Andrew
I knew I shouldn't open this post
All I can say in my defense is H.Ford quote When I see an Alfa Romeo go by, I tip my hat Best Damjan
Ford said that....
...pre-war. When Alfa Romeo was winning Grand Prix and hadn't yet put engines into Nissans with a cross and serpent badge, hadn't replaced its V6 with a block from Australia, hadn't pretended that a valve cover makes a FIAT engine an ALFA. Back to the sub...
A company can only live on its history for ...
... so long. You make strong arguments. A
True.
It pays us to remember that Scuderia Ferrari started by racing Alfa Romeos.... Alfa Romeo has a glorious history, but now (to me) they have little but distinctive styling to recommend them. Given how good cars are now and the reputation of Alfa developed ...
Looks like a fun car.
Based on looks I would choose this over the BMW and VW but a test drive of all would be a must. JerryW
Nice looking car.
But I would say; stay away from italian cars. Sorry, but I don't like them. cheers vte
There is still some design flair ...
... to these cars that is very attractive. Actually our local Lamborghini dealer keeps some small Lotus and Alfa models in the corner of the showroom. I guess after you have lusted after the exotica and are in the mood to buy something with a little of th...
I like it.
Actually almost pulled the trigger on one recently. Looked at the MiTo as well. But in the end, I decided to get something very different (and quite a bit smaller) from the dealership... a Fiat 500 cabrio.
The MiTO is a great design and ....
... still in the Fiat stable I guess. But there is still something special about the little Fiat 500. I would have made the same decision. Hope you are enjoying it for summer. Andrew
