I really hope people finally realize that Alfa Romeos are getting really reliable these days. We definitely need more of their beautiful cars on our streets!
i hope not so they stay cheap😂😅
@@giacomocapuani Idk I'd rather pay a bit more and be sure Alfa is doing enough sales to stay with us for the next decades than get one for cheap knowing they'll end up as the complete opposite of what they once embodied like Mitsubishi did. 😄 But I am really looking forward to put a Giulia Veloce next to my 156 soon 🤌🏼
@@schnuffelpuff3923 exactly. If these sell amazingly they'll put more R&D for us with this
I got the 2019 Guilia 2.0 sport and I can tell you that this car is an amazing car and its 100% fun .... I love it
What about the reliability?
Don’t forget the ECU upgrade
Where do you get parts when things wear Out??
Cmom guys,u all need to be a lil bit relax bout this guilia.dont be so negative.
@@enriquepalomino8554 the 2.0 is very reliable.
The smile on your face says it all... This can only be an Alfa Romeo.
Thanks Ron, you are right on with this message. I bought my 2018 Giulia Base at the tail end of the model year, Its a Monza red Q4 with cold weather package, the 8.8 in screen, 18 in. wheels and as you say, the exact same engine and suspension as all the higher end models. The only thing I'm missing of any real substance vs. the TI or Sport is the paddle shifters which for me was not a huge deal. With some special year end incentives mine came in at less than $36k. What a deal! I love this car. It's docile around the city for running to the grocery store but for spirited driving out on the back roads it's beyond just a joy to drive. it's a piece or art and an engineering tour de force. For what it's worth, operformance BMWs and Audi;s are pretty common. I hardly ever see another Alfa and frankly, many people swoon over my car and effuse over its beauty complementing my 'taste in cars.' Not that I'm looking for complements but still...I like being a contrarian My biggest hesitation when I made the purchase relates to the horror stories on reliability. As far as I'm concerned these are way overblown. So far at 12k miles this car has been faultless.
We bought a 2019 Ti Sport White w/Red interior loaded with options for 38k and wouldn't trade it for anything ! Best car we've owned yet highly recommended !!
Killet combo. Alfas have really bright white.
How much did you pay for it?
@@mariat0401 im paying 18k for my Ti 2018 model with 70k miles
Update on your Alfa?
I recently discovered the Brand and fell in love with the the car. Sadly my budget for now I would only afford a preowned model. So I'll have to wait until they get traded in
But you will 👍🏻
cost of borrowing.. ?
Even if I were wealthy I would opt for a pre-owned model. The value for the price is so much greater.
Ditto. Got the Stelvio ti q4. Mostly good but wish it had heated seats! I wanna try to rig my own
Just bought a pre owned 2018. Original sticker was $46.900 picked it up with 23,000 miles for 25,000 definatly worth picking up lightly used some real good deals to be had
I have a 2019 Guilia RWD w/ 30k on it. 0 electrical issues, 0 issues overall. Hands down the best car I have ever owned. Enough horsepower to have fun, not too much that I will wrap it around a tree!
I love how you explained everything ❤️. I’ll be getting my Alfa after I begin my career job 👌🏾❤️
Sounds like a bargain for the price. It’s a good introduction to someone who is just getting into the brand. I love the black exterior
It really is and if they enjoy it maybe down the line they can jump into a QV!
@@RonsRides Its a good tactic to keep them in the brand for the long term
Alfa Romeo’s actually are not good cars
I'm saving enough money so I can purchase this vehicle as my first automobile
@@lucazuffada5472 Excuse me ... and you know this how?
The base model 4 cylinder is way more reliable that the twin turbo v6 option. So if you’re not doing any racing the base model should be good enough
Very beautiful and affordable spec. This spec should attract buyers who don’t want or need all of the bells and whistles. Perfect commuter car!
Nah a perfect commuter car is a Toyota Prius or Honda Accord or something.
Great review!
I appreciate this review. Thank you.
Subscribed. Great content
VERY INFORMATIVE TGANK YOU SO MUCH!!!! I’m thinking of buying one!!!!
Thanks Ron. Great review 👍.
Awesome review! I love this car!
love the package..top line for me plus all wheel drive too
I definitely intend to purchase one very,very soon
just bought one and im loving it.
Definitely want a Guilia, gorgeous car. Also dont see them alot, so thats a plus too
Great car very well presented. A big thumbs up from me!
I'm in love with the giulia. I can't wait to trade my stinger gt for the Giulia Quadrifoglio.
enrique palomino I am torn between the stinger GT and the Giulia 🤔
enrique palomin
I couldn't do it.. I have a stinger now and I love it to much
@@metugeesong5950 the stinger gt is a lot faster than the 2.0 liter Giulia but if you have enough money for the Giulia Quadrifoglio I would go for that one
enrique palomino Actually the Giulia Veloce 2.0 litre is faster 0-100 than the stinger GT.
I love the black package on all of these, but I prefer if they left the side mirrors the color of the car myself
i just purchase the 2019 base model gulia with the sport package. I am loving it!!
I can't wait to get this car!
I absolutely love my 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia 👍🏼
Looks sooo good in black
Black looks good when clean!
I have the Nero package with the sport looking rear diffuser red seats and it definitely turns heads
Nice trim! Here in Belgium not available. Only Veloce 280 Q4. And 50 000 euro! So I have the 200 hp super with aftermarket black package and chipped to 304 hp. 33 000 euro, discount 20%. MY 2019... Nice job Ron!
How is the 200 hp version with chip? Is it fast? Can you turn off traction control? Is it heavy?
@@Cliffracer46 Pretty sure the engines of 200 hp and 280 hp are the same and they can be chipped to the same amount, hope @hans can correct me if wrong.
@@NikiG5040 yeah heard about it, only difference are pistons if i remember. Too bad in Italy the 280hp is only awd.
In fact the 200 engine is the downsized 280 block. So no risks. It is havier then the stock Veloce in D. I can not disable the traction control. I have now a zero to 100 in 4.9s.
@@lassostring awesome thats quick
Makes you look formal w/o big money
I absolutely love the front end on this car, it's so unique. Can't help but think the back looks a little generic though, like a Hyundai. Kind of wish they would have explored other options design wise with the tail lights but overall I think this and the Volvo S60 are destroying the German competition in the 'cool' factor.
I think Audi has the front end and rear end on lock.
They are one of the very few cars that have dynamic running turn signals.
For some reason, manufacturers still don't do it in some of their cars still.
Really? I like the rear more than the front. The sport rear bumper definitely looks much better than the basic one in this video. Love the rear LED in the dark.
This particular Giulia Veloce doesn't have the paddles. You need those!
This not veloce
Fantastic cars even at the entry level and just up from the entry level with the two packages I would really want the Micah or Black metallic so it's got that glitter effect but otherwise that the car is fantastic looking and I hope and pray that Alfa Romeo not only has cars of this size but brings a quattroporte sized and BMW 7 series size cars as well with a twin turbo V8 twin turbo V10 and twin turbo v12 versions on the full size and as well as bigger SUVs to go up against the Q7 the q8 and the BMW bigger SUVs as well because it would be really interesting Alfa Romeo style on even bigger vehicles but they have always built perfect vehicles and I think FCA for what they're doing with Ferrari Maserati and Alfa Romeo keep on keeping on
come on man, if u get black, get the red interior! thats the best color combo IMO
Nice review. What whas the wow
I’m picking up a Base Giulia that besides color )I’m getting Stromboli Gray w/ red interior) is the same as Ron tested. I’m bumping up from a superb Honda Accord to a new type of machine. This level of Giulia has everything I need and comes at a great price point for me. I am feeling good about reliability after all of my research and look forward to driving with a smile on my face! Great review that assured me I made the right choice for me. Just hope Alfa stays in US market for decades.
Dude same, trading in a 2016 accord ex-l for a 2019 giulia ti sport, really cannot wait! How have you liked it compared to the accord?
how is it now
@@TheWallProductions17how is it
It was a great car, never had an issue with it. I just sold it because I got a remote job and I didn’t need it anymore but it was a pleasure to own.
@@cyguy8577 Good to hear. What yeae was it and how long did you own it for
Nice wheels🤘
Can u get this exact specs but change the interior to tan, with the Nero package still?
Getting my 2020 Niro edition with red brake calipers and red interior tomorrow. Can’t wait!
How’s the first couple months been?
@@offthescene9126 awesome to say the least man. So many compliments and it drives beautifully. Nothing I can complain about almost three months in but ask me again by the end of the year lol
@@jt3442 anything you know now that you wish them? Any recommendations? Things to look for?
@@jt3442 any issues yet?
@@GITSSAC was going great til somebody t boned me one morning. Sadly was totaled and not my fault. Moved into a 2023 Elantra N only because it was cheaper payments. Did love the car
All I need is a locking diff and electronic suspension (Q2). Everything else just adds weight. Have you ever worn motorcycle leathers? You will quickly see how heavy leather is!
the downside to buying the non-TI sport trims is the seats. the standard seats are bad. No bolstering. In order to get the nice seats you need to get the TI Sport.
Have they changed the indicator stalk system? If they have, then that’s a big plus point.
Cheapest Giulia for sale in the uk currently is for about £13,500 for a 2.2jtdm with 106,000 miles on the clock.
That 280 can very easily be bumped to 340 with a TDI Tuning box, best on the market
Where do you buy the TDI tuning box and are there any instructions on how to do this?!
@@TheMixmaster4 Interested to know this as well.
@@jamesfort1870 (and Tabias Clements) are you both in the US? TDI is a UK based company. They may have a representative office in the US, you would need to ask them. tdi-tuning.com/en-gb
Gotta get a Ti Sport. Tbe Sport adds the LSD to the rear whi h helps grip and acceleration.
I love it i want one fs
So I am in the market for a CPO 3 series in the low 20 grand range or something similar and I came across these as a direct comparison just not certified. I really love the car and would consider getting it instead but I’m not seeing and CPO models and with the mixed reviews on reliability I definitely want to have a warranty. Has anyone had any experience with getting a service contact or extended warranty? Does the original warranty at least transfer to the second owner?
@RonsRides do you think the previous models drove better?
Yes!
what about the parts are they expensive like a water pump
alternaitor brakes in case you need to replace them?
Pay for an extended warranty that covers these things, loads available.
Do the 2020 get a lot of error codes as the 2017s 18s 19s? Trying to get a new 2020+ but scared about the codes
Is the low reliability rating from Cons. Reports related more to minor Electronics and not engine and major parts? B/c the Stelvio is rated Good for some strange reason.
So what would you do? Buy the AR Guila Ti or a BMW 3 or 4 Series? Im torn. Concerned with AR maintenance and wear/tear over 3-4 yrs vs that of Beamers.
Get the Alfa. I did :).
@idk Car has 25 kkm and 17 months. Zero issues. Just refuelling ;).
You should mention the huge discount available on these not so popular vehicles. That would be helpful to potential buyers who view your videos.
Not so popular?
@@BrianZoeu In regards to the Giulia sedan, it also suffered a major sales decline last year taking into account demand dropped by 24% to 8,704 vehicles. (Jan 2020 story from motor1.com comparing 2018 Giulia USA sales to 2019.) I did not say it isn't a nice car. They just don't sell very many so it is being discounted. A great buying opportunity. BTW: BMW 3 series sales are 50,000 last year down from 100,000 five years earlier. C class dropped from 86K sales to 50K in the last four years also. SUV"s are killing them.(data per carsalesbase.com)
I've driven BMW, Mercedes, Audi which were obviously all good cars. However, the thing I love about this Guilia is that it's unique in a sense. How many of the usual higher grade cars are on the road. You see them day in and day out.... Everywhere.
Not the Guilia.
You should try the quadrfoglio bro
He really loves the color black😂😂😂😂😂
Is the ferrari for all days. Se also the new alfa GTA and GTAm
This is the new saab
In The Netherlands they also come with the 200 HP 2.0 engine (automatic). Thinking about getting a full-option B-TECH with the yellow Veloce brakes, Comp. red with black interior. Those things are 58k USD where I live. Is it worth that price?
I dont know what to say. A very well equipped Veloce (280 HP) in Romania is 51k euro. I got an offer for 42k. The 200 Super version, with some decent extras is about 32k. VAT included. So i guess you can try negotiate for a better deal.
@@livolas nah, it's mainly taxes because it's a gasoline car. Dealer margins are less than 1% here so no real room to negotiate.
@@livolas Decided to go for a Tesla Model 3 Long Range Dual Motor due to the price difference. 50% of the price of the Giulia.
Does this car turn off when you stop? Please tell me no
It’s weird... I’ve got the veloce with the paddles, I would never buy one without the paddles. But I hardly ever use them!
You can get used quadrifoglio for less than 10k more
Very good price!! Very good bargain!!👍👍
I think red would of been better then the yellow...the red would of matched with the rear lights
I need that moon roof ... 😬
Hennessy * I believe it’s 1500 more but I agree it’s worth it 100% to have the moonroof
I’m on the tall side so I fit in the car so much better without the moon roof, plus in Florida it is not really a bonus.
Just got me one
Will these cars last 100k miles
I just got a great deal on a loaded 19
What did ya pay?
No such thing as a “good” car deal, the market is designed for you to always lose.
Can this version video for the Stelvio.
I can mange that. All of our current Stelvio models are in the higher priced range so I'll wait until an entry level model comes in.
The batmobile! Looks great!
Looking buy the 2021 Alfa romeo gulia as my first car
I love the car. Definitely a lot of horses . Just what I need. Are they fairly reliable though?
Are you content with the base model 2020 Alfa Romeo Giulia?!
No, I would not! An Alfa Romeo is about the driving experience. I would be satisfied with nothing less than a Giulia Ti if only to have the Q2 Performance Package (driver-adjustable suspension and mechanical LSD) so as to enhance that experience.
@wallacem41atgmail And I passed on an Alfa at the moment because I want a QV! So I totally understand!
@@RonsRides Are you planning to track the car ... yes/no?
I'll find out sometime next month. I've got a red RWD base Giulia that I ordered making it's way across the Atlantic as I post this.
Hey Ron, so you were saying that the steering feels a but different in the 2020 model, i have the 2019 myself but i test drove the 2020, i can agree that the car drives the same as the 2019, but i dont believe the sharpness is gone, its exactly the same as it hits all the corners as usual and best in its class. However, I WILL SAY THEY CHANGED THE WEIGHT OF THE STEERING TO BE EVEN MORE LIGHTER.
Hi which one would you recommend - used alpha Romeo Quadra folio or the BMW M2 competition 2020
They are almost the same price
Alfa Quad f. Is probably on the same level as the M4. Between these and the M2, i would personally get these. It could also be a must ha e car in a few years
BMW too ordinary, Alfa!
But the reliability of the car has always been my question. I'd buy the 2.0
Just got a veloce from 29 03 2021
I want a Quadrifoglio so bad but they’re much more plagued with issues sadly :/ These 4cyl ones seem great tho. Just wish they had bit more than 280hp. That’s slower than an STI lmao
Actually has a better power/weight ratio than an STI. . .
How much is the normal oil change or service for one of those. Thinking about selling my truck for one
Research tells me a single oil change is $450. Madonna!! 🥵
I would wrap mine in gold and leave the rims and grill black
Are there any serious reported problems with the giulia? I really want one Awd with the white and wood interior
The 2.0t is very reliable.
I love this car and I’m highly considering it but one thing that really irritates me is that BMW shifter it was literally lifted out of a BMW and because of that when shifting up should be up and down should be down not the way this is set up.
I disagree. But I prefer inverted when console gaming XD Its one of those things. It makes more sense to me that its pull to go up, push to go down.
In texas i haven't seen a alfa romeo dealership
Not sure where you are located in Texas, but there is one in the Fort Worth area.
Bro you all rdy know! I'm definitely interested in used 2020 Quad!
Already know!!!
They need to make
This in a 2 dr version and ill buy asap
Alright
Great looking car and good price. Yes needs exhaust upgrade. I would have to have a winter car though.
Luckily down here I dont have to worry about winters =)
@@RonsRides I'd like to move down there from MO (KC Chiefs SB champs!) but you all have those hurricanes and Im not talking about the Lambo
With the singular exception of the Giulia QV, all Giulias are available with the Q4 AWD option. If you feel you need/want both get a Stelvio QV.
Hi why this car is cheap? It looks nice so I wanna know reason
I luv it. However..what about reliability? Sadly, I'm not hearing good things?
I'm concerned with that too
Last I read they came 5th of 32 brands in reliability...
And also:"Alfa Romeo has always produced great looking cars, but its performance in customer satisfaction studies suggested they weren’t so great to live with. That all changed in 2017, though, when the Italian brand finished in the top 10 of our annual Reliability Survey - a feat it repeated last year, when it also beat all of its German rivals."
The 2.0t is very reliable.
Mine is very reliable for the 3 years
Looks fucking wicked.
I personally don't need the blacked out package, in stad of that I would pick the leather package and maybe the aluminum package.
The Leather Package (dash top and door caps) is not available on a Giulia, only a Giulia Ti. The aluminum interior trim bits are part of the Giulia Sport Package but does not include the sport seats; for those one must move up to a Giulia Ti with a Sport Package.
@@wallacem41atgmail hmm I understand, I wonder if here in Romania is the same way... If it is I would step up to the sport package although I can give up on aluminum.
@@wallacem41atgmail what about the red leather seats? If I go with the ti model.
@@thepalm2791 In all likely-hood they are the same (fewer differences makes for fewer mistakes at the assembly plant). Aluminum trim became standard with all Sport Package interiors beginning with the 2018 MY (model year).
@@thepalm2791 I have a 2018 Giulia Ti Sport Q2 with the Ti Leather Package which I special-ordered in Trofeo White Tricoat metallic over a Red/Black interior. The sport seats are red as is the stitching on the dash and door caps. Note, seat construction is the same as on the standard QV seat but with a different upholstery cover.
Ron...you're making me question buying the most expensive Ti sport carbon on the lot. Please stop lol!
Lol hey now by all means buy what you like and can afford.
Spending a few bucks more and getting all the gingerbread really makes a difference in the stance of these cars, at least in my ‘19. I’m really enjoying my SportTI RWD with everything minus the (not needed IMO) diver assist package. It’s great these base Alfa’s come out of the box with 99% of all the mechanical giddy up anyone would need.
Great choice no regret, I won't change my mind. Must have kinda things.
Ron do you know why in my 2019 Ti Sport when I start the car it doesn’t flash the Alfa Romeo badge on the cluster or infotainment screens? I know it’s a weird question but would really appreciate a response. Thanks man.
You can edit the start screen. There are about 8 different pictures you can choose. I have a 2019 ti sport
if not for my dislike for maintaining that black paint I'd be all over it looks great
Seats 4!?
Love the review, but, um, it doesn't look anything like a bumble bee. 😂
احلي مسا عناس اكويسه.... منورين يا فرافير
do they come with Sunroofs
Yes my boy Haider has one the sunroof is huge
What is aluminum? Dont you mean aluminium?
How’s the reliability ? Asking for a friend :p
I've had a Guilia veloce 280bhp for 8 months now. The car has been pushed to its limits on plenty of occasions and I've had absolutely no problems with the car.
It's an absolute dream to drive if you like a quick car with great handling. But is still comfortable in a more conservative scenario.
Lease lease lease.
Lease it
@@Chironex_Fleckeri lease is fleece. And the 2.0t is very reliable.
@@astronmr20 Lease is what you do when the hassle of a car having any reliability issues and spending days and days in a shop exceeds the additional cost of leasing, lease the car. A 36mo $500 a month lease on a $50,000 BMW with a few thousand due at signing is preferable to a 5 year old BMW with 80k miles and probpems creeping up. With my career, I don't have time or energy to waste dealing with an unreliable car. I would personally never own a high mileage Alfa nor would I eat the hit on that god awful residual from a 4 cylinder Giulia. No thanks. It makes more financial sense to lease when you have to be seen driving something respectable, especially on business outings with clients or prospective clients... see?
