Good read/watch. Thanks for sharing @WattieGood review.
Why the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio is among my top five cars of all time
No controversial grilles here, just a pure, Italian thoroughbred! Posted on DriveTribe by Shmee150 Team. By Phil Bradley For petrolheads like me, there's such a thing called a 'poster car'. The definition of which is one, or several cars that feature on a poster on the wall in your bedroom. For me, the Alfa Romeo...

Alfa news.
Do we like this Alfa? I’m on the fence.

And to add to this:
would still take the Alfa though!
Good Lord....I would end up bringing up my breakfast everyday if I walked out and saw that on the drive. Love M cars but that front is a step too far. A great drive I’m sure but ugly as a bag if b0llocks.
And you can buy a low miles 3 year old one for around 32K! amazingCan you point out the reimagined bits to me because I'm not seeing it at all

Viewed as its role as a sports saloon, I think the guilia QF is pretty much the pinnacle so far. It may actually never be bettered in the future, as manufacturers are forced into hybrid and electric for future model development, with all the compromises that brings.
The Germans are just going more size, weight, power, 4wd, too much tech etc.
Are the interior materials as good as some of the German rivals? Not as different as people make out I don’t think in reality. The actual interior design is good though, no stupid tacked on iPad style screens for example.
It looks great, is light for its class, has a great engine, suspension, steering and driving position. It has all the tech, and more, than you actually need. They are proving reliable so far too.
The only downsides I see are a poor dealer network to look after them, being turbo they sound good, but not great (but all the rivals are turbo too now) and there is not even an option for a manual over here.
I think they will be a future classic in a way no current M3 or C63 will be.
Great cars I reckon.
Mate, you'd love one, what's with Mrs C carrying stuff, you can get 5 people in there and the boots huge!I'd love one. For Mrs C. She sensibly vetoed any Giulia for her new car because of carrying considerations.
But still! (And personally if they did a 2-door version of the £150k carbon pimped version I'd sell both my kidneys)

I gently disagree and suggest the XFR is the pinnacle of the sports saloon. Truly epic engine, handles well, and has a gorgeous and high quality interior to boot. Just a shame it’s no longer available new.
