This is a Motormouth couple car review of the 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia.Our test model is the Giulia T1 Sport in Verde Visconti Metallic, a lovely green colour. I’ve found it difficult to capture the beauty of this colour in my pictures; it looks quite stunning in person and changes based on light, angles and reflections. This Alfa Giulia has a 2L turbocharged 4-cylinder engine with an 8-speed automatic transmission, 280 horsepower and 306 lb-ft of torque. It has a top speed of 240 km/h/149 mph and it’s AWD only in Canada. In the US, RWD and AWD are available. There is also another engine available in the Giulia, a 2.9L twin-turbo V6 with 505 horsepower. The Quadrifoglio is a different beast, but this turbo-charged 4-cylinder engine is still impressive with its crisp driving dynamics. The iconic V Scudetto Grille, first introduced in 1934 has evolved many times over the years. In Italian, scudetto means little shield and when you see this grille, you know it’s an Alfa Romeo; it distinguishes them from other brands. The Sport front fascia on the T1 Sport models has large air intakes to supply more cool air in order to boost performance. Our test model has 19” dark 5-hole aluminum wheels with yellow brake calipers and black Alfa Romeo script. There are black accents throughout the exterior including, a dark grille, dark mirror caps and badging. The active driver assistant package on this T1 Sport is standard, it includes, active blind spot assist, adaptive cruise control, automatic high beam headlamp control, driver attention alert, intelligent speed assist, lane keep assist and traffic jam assist. The Alfa Romeo Giulia had an interior refresh in 2020 and it needed it. It does not come with the biggest touchscreen in its class; it has an 8.8” screen. You can still control the screen with the centre console dial similar to BMW. The Mercedes-Benz C-Class comes standard with a 10.25” touchscreen and a 12.3” digital instrument cluster. In the Giulia you’ll find a 7” full colour instrument cluster. The BMW 3-series comes standard with the same size screen as the Giulia, an 8.8” but you can upgrade to a 10.3” screen. As for the Audi A4, it comes standard with a 10.1” touchscreen. Other standard features on the Giulia include, heated leather seats, a heated steering wheel, Apple Carplay and Android Auto. Our test model has some extra features through a package like sport seats, heated rear seats, a cargo net, wireless charger and Harman Kardon Audio system. Leather seats are a big one; they come standard on the Giulia. The 3-series and C-Class come standard with leatherette and the A4 has leather-seating surfaces. All of the German brands offer ventilated front seats as an option, but the Giulia doesn’t offer this feature on any trim. Size wise, the Giulia is equivalent to the BMW 3-series, C-Class and Audi A4 when it comes to 2nd row legroom and rear headroom. It does have a little more front legroom than the others. The G70 offers the least amount of 2nd row space.

3 years, ZERO problems. Great car
Great review! I adore my 2018 Giulia Ti Sport. It's a pleasure to drive and a joy to admire in my driveway! Also, no issues at all. Couldn't say that about my last car - a 2014 Accord.
Thanks for sharing!
I was able to lease my 2020 Giulia for way less than a comparable BMW or AUDI. It is an awesome car to drive. the steering feel is magical.
Dreamy. Magical. Beautiful.
I have it for almost 1 and half year, mine is Giulia Veloce, I usually a Bmw fan but since i bought it i love it, Great driving style great handling, so powerful so fun and great reliablility... and u get soo much positive feedback from the people...
Good to know man. I was set on the 330i but I think Im going to get the Veloce. Hope you’re happy with it
Great reviews guys. I own the exact vehicle you tested. Turbo lag was an issue but was easily remedied with a Madness GoPedal. All but eliminates it. I have had zero issues with car to date. The 20 and 21's have been extremely reliable. The 17 and 18's, especially the Quads, not so much. Have no issues with the smaller info screen. Love that it is integrated into the dash and agree that I don't need to see what I am looking at in a larger format. Disappointed that Alfa is dropping the Verde Visconti in 2022. but that makes my car all the more special. Definitely glad I took the chance and would do it again.
@@andreaspencer9813 Thank you, and keep up the great reviews.
@@brianb7844 Thank you very much!
On my second Alfa and no problems at all for the last four years. Love it.
Still driving it? How’s it treating you? Looking at one currently.
Put me down as another happy Giulia owner. My 2018 Ti Sport has been rock solid and SO MUCH FUN. Also some of the best seats and paint at any price point. Definitely buying out my lease. Sad to see Alfa getting rid of the yellow calipers, brown leather, and Verde Visconti next year!
Exactly. I hated seeing the Verde leave. I'm actually considering getting a Stelvio but probably a preowned 2021 model if I can find it in Verde Visconti.
Bingo. ❤️
My boss have one and he services her every year at an Alfista service center and he doesn’t have any issues with 5 consecutive Alfas till now.
These are probably some of the most complete car reviewers that I know of. No, they are not car and driver or motortrend, but the overall package of information given here is impressive. The night shots, and reliability score segments are important to me and most reviewer never mention them. Good job! 👍🏾
Thank you so much, really appreciate the kind words.
I love that they are based in Canada too. Being a Canadian, it's nice to see a channel based in Canada as that way the trims and pricing reviewed are all relatable to me
Just got myself a green Stelvio. Its great to drive, the balance and the steering is unlike any of the german cars.
LOVE the Stelvio! - Andrea
Why is it unlike the Germans?
In my opinion, the Germans are better, and definitely more reliable!
@@michaelwiebe4282 you haven’t driven one if you think that. No comparison imo. A base 40k Giulia has better handling and driving dynamics than my 70k B9 S4. No question. It is much sharper, feels lighter, less understeer, 50/50 weight distribution, RWD (even the Q4 is 100% RWD until slip is detected), and you actually feel connected to the car. The Germans are so sterile and numb by comparison. Drive one and you will understand (if you are a true driving enthusiast).
I have a 3-series 2020, it is absolutely a nice car... but I really want to have the Giulia.
Whoa, these usually come at 3PM EST on Wednesdays…. But love the styling of the Giulia!
The reliability question is quite simple to answer actually. When you take a look at the comments of every Giulia/stelvio review you can see almost every real owner is happy about the car and his reliability and the non owners know better and keep playing the same song because some magazine had issues in the first production year, a friends friend had problems or even say they are not reliable 'just because it is'. I would take the owners more serious than the 'know it all's'. Now this doesn't mean you can't have bad luck just as it goes with many products and brands. Thing is the impression often is made you have to be lucky to get a reliable one instead of bad luck to get a unreliable one and that's just not the case.
And what of the endless stream of AR owners who ended up selling their cars within a year of purchases because they were such junk? I see far more of those types of owners online than I do satisfied AR owners.
@@mattspeer01 can't say i cam across lot's of them.
@@mattspeer01 Show us those "endless streams." I see far more of the type owners very to completely satisfied so you're spewing nothing but propaganda or reading decades old comments/reviews.
@@spaniardsrmoors6817 Show me the long list of satisfied owners. The Giulia has been on sale in the US since 2017, so if 4 years is what you consider "decades old comments/reviews," then you have a very different definition of decades than I do. Stelvio is even newer than that. I'm talking about all these 2017+ MY vehicles that people are endlessly complaining about and having issues with. Take about 5 seconds and do some research on Google and you will see what I mean. Stop spewing your blatant AR propaganda, makes you seem like a Stellantis employee with something to gain by lying about the garbage AR produces.
Why would they do that if it’s under warranty? Go back to sleep In your Corolla
Buy the Alfa! It's more than just a car. It's love.
Dreamy!
Reliability it's an old story. Actually comparable with most of the German premium. Driving a Stelvio 2.2 diesel since 4 years and 80.000 km, lot of fun and zero issues up to date. Materials inside and outside looks still as first day. Engine is a monster.
I'm telling you Zack... Who needs networks when you guys make such quality reviews on you tube!! You are both excellent and have a very unique style and it shows... You compliment each other perfectly, your video structure is interesting and very up scale if that makes any sense! Glad to be able to watch such great content.. Congrats!
Wow, thanks for the kind words, means a lot!
Awesome! Thank you so much, so glad you love the content.
I really wish Alfa Romeo offered an engine that slotted in between the 2.0 L Turbo and the Quadrifolio's Turbo V6, preferably around 350 HP with AWD, and it'd be sweet.
That color combo is stunning. I'm in love!
So many great choices in this segment these days! This Alfa is awesome!! Also love the CT5-V and the G70 3.3TT. Don't need a German to have fun anymore!
I have been waiting for the Alfa to drop! That green on the Giulia is absolutely stunning!
If you want it, you better find a 2021 and buy it. It will not be available on the 2022 Alfas.
@@davidthompson4489 if I had a local Alfa dealer than I would seriously look at this vehicle. It has that design that will stand the test of time. I hope Alfa Romeo doesn't end up pulling out of the NA market.
@@ryanclark9415 Define local lol. We drove 5 hours one way to get the Stelvio with the options we wanted. Nearest dealer is three hours one way.
@@davidthompson4489 i live in Halifax, Nova Scotia and the nearest Alfa dealer to me is a 14 hour drive to Quebec.
@@ryanclark9415 You win 😁 That would be a bit of a commute for service.
Beautiful car and color combo, the Stelvio would also look awesome in this color combo.
Another Awesome review!! Being Italian Canadian I’ve always wanted an Italian car .. maybe this one is on my future 😎💰😎
Go with the Fiat if you want a cheaper Italian car.
Glad to see you liked the Giulia 😊. I have a 2018 Giulia Ti Sport ,with 48k miles, in Montecarlo Blue with the "baseball mitt" interior. I'm very pleased with it. It handles very well compared to my previous Audi. There is some turbo lag, but it is a little more responsive in Dynamic mode. Thanks for the positive review. 😊👍
Great, thanks for sharing and really happy to hear you enjoyed the review too. - Andrea
I have a 2018 misano blue with yellow brakes guilia to sport. It’s marvelous. I’ve had a lemon law case for brake noise. Settled with FCA and I’ve had little issues with it having to the dealer 12 times but all under warranty. However I get compliments on it almost daily. People think I spent almost 80 grand for it. It’s a special car. I’d definitely buy another one after my lease is up
I looked for your review prior to buying but couldn't find one Anyways, picked one up last weekend.
This car is a work of art. I have twice almost purchased one, but went with a BMW M235i, and then with a Mercedes C43 instead (current car). No regrets...but I do often wonder if I would have been happier with the Giulia instead. You don't see many of them on the road (good thing?) and it's a head turner. Siggghhh...
I am definitely considering the Giulia. The modern and sexy design combined with the performance and improved quality make me interested in hopping aboard the AR train!
I owned a 2017 QV since 2019 and no issues since software updates after purchase. Such an awesome and fun car to drive.
My 2019 was the sport with 19 inch perilli P- Zero handling was amazing. Now my 2020 has Bridgestone 18 inch, ride is smother and quiet. Both cars were faster then BMW 3 and Audi A4 with the 4 cyl turbo.
Wow!! Finally here, been dying to see this review. 😍
Loved the review and loved the car, it’s a beautiful car, and was designed and engineered by people from Ferrari, which is why it handles so well. I’ve owned two Alfa’s, and never had any issues with them, but I had a lot of issues with my MB which spent a lot of time at the dealer getting fixed. There’s something about Italian cars that just touch your soul. The longer you drive an Alfa, the more you fall in love with them.
The Guilin Ti Sport is the one I have and I still get excited to Drive it. You don’t see them everywhere either. So much fun!!
Looking forward to this one, always loved Alfa's!
Andrea looked really happy with that throttle response in the opening shot.
I love the green and saddle brown combo...again with gloss black trim and black wheels😠, those wheels look amazing in silver. I wish manufacturers would drop this design/trim trend. Thanks for the great review Andrea and Zack!
The wheels are not black. They are a metallic gunmetal color. They look great compared to straight black.
@@brianb7844 black, gunmetal grey whatever... machined face or painted silver contrasts against the cars colour better, instead of looking like the tires and wheels are all one shade
@@genzigzag you said black, so whatever…
'20 Stelvio, no issues yet, but it is still new(2500miles). Purchased it.
Awesome review...lovely styling by the Italians!
Thank you and I agree with you! Beautiful vehicle.
I was between a 330I, an A4, and a CT4… the Alfa is the very best daily driver and it’s not close. I went with a Giulia Ti and never looked back. Set it to dynamic for spirited driving and enjoy!
I've had my 2019 Giulia Ti Lusso AWD for about 2 years now--37,000 miles and haven't had any serious or any issue(s) whatsoever that I had to spend a single cent to fix.
I can't speak on how this general reliability data is actually filtered or gets reviewed but I can tell you that I've had nothing but good experiences with my Alfa Romeo and I'm no rush to get rid of it and if I do, it'll be for another Alfa Romeo.
I always loved Alfa Romeo's! Love the interior and colour combo as well! Great review!!
Thank you so much, really glad you enjoyed the review!
A couple years ago I rented a Guilia to drive while on a vacation. It was so beautiful, red with red interior. Bellissima
Very nice!
Pick up my 2022 Alfa Romeo Stelvio tomorrow and can’t wait. Test drove it several times and none of the other vehicles I drove had the same feel. Just got rid of my 2021 Audi Q5.
The front grill is supposed to symbolize a heart . The moto was, maybe still is, Cuore Sportivo (sporty heart). I think that's pretty cool, because the heart was part of the design as long as I can remember.
Just a FYI, the second trim level isn't T1, it's Ti. The Italians created a racing category nearly 100 yrs ago, called Tourismo Internazionale. To compete against the Germans and French at the time. Alfa uses *Ti* for a trim level, to pay homage to those glory days
I wouldn't have a problem leasing the Alfa motor trend just did a comparison with the top dog Alfa and the new M3 competition they still choose the Alfa at the end
Great review!!!!!! This is the most underrated car on the market. I would take this (used) over any of its competition, with an extended warranty. It's my favorite car for sure. But only with a great aftermarket warranty. One would have to be mad to pay 55k for an Integra or Type R new (or other competitors) when this is $18k used!!!!!
it is a stunning looking car...great style..if they could conquer the reliability gremlins...even a little bit...a winner that would be sweet...would be on my lotto list for sure,enjoy
I love driving Alfa Romeo. Giulia's passionate driving experience is unparalleled in a class of rational German and Japanese, even American sports sedans. But the iffy reliability has scared me. Just like German rivals, leasing an Alfa is the best bet even if the residual value isn't as attractive. Just like a Ferrari, Alfa feels so special that one should treat one as a "second fun car".
Mr Chan with all due respect, you are misinformed...Alfa Reliability is actually superior to the GERMANS. you have been reading too much fakenews...FACT...ALFA has never has never had a BLOWN ENGINE DESIGN FAILURE ...AUDI and BMW have 1 each in the last 30 years! get educated and you will learn that ALFA is a superior product... BMW is still on the NURBURING trying to beat ALFAS 5year old track record! they still cannot figure it out!
That Cadillac looks sick I’ve had the Ti Sport a Guilia for about 3 months now
On my 2nd Guilia. In 4 years, hardly a problem at all. It's easy to pick on a brand that's had quality issues in the past, and just assume the new models will as well. Not my experience.
my 2017 TI SPORT has 65000km and been bullet proof! ZERO to 60 in 5sec and 865km to a 58L tank of gas when I am vacationing in MONTREAL!
A total drooling Giulia Q4 fan here! I never owned one before, but I got a 2019 Ti Sport and I've racked up the miles a little too quickly (I keep intentionally missing my turn off!) so it's off to the dealer to buy my second one. I would not be doing that if it were problematic! I've spent far more time in the BMW service lounge than any other brand I've owned. If they stay in the USA market, I'll be buying Alfa Romeos until I can't drive any longer.
I owned an Alfa Spyder many many years ago and they were not known for their reliability either but logic and practicality does
not cause you to buy one. Would I buy a new one as my only car? No, but would love to have one in my garage for special occasions.
@2:30, Wow! Andrea, nice Italian pronunciation. Your talents are many. Great review!
Thank you! :)
Wow that bag is beautiful, Sack!
We need to use it more often, it is beautiful! - Andrea
So beautiful!!!
Performance and styling!!
It’d be so fun to drive.
I’d have to do more research on the reliability though.
So... keep it for a few years and swap it out for a newer one before warranty expires? :)
Italian bags reviews should have a day in the week
Beautiful leather! - Andrea
Agree with Zak with the Screens. I think an 8inch screen does the job for me (I said ME). I dont mess the one in my car that much. XM radio presets is all i need to mess with. I dont care for Vented or cooled seat too. Rather they have a heated function.
Agree 100%
I think it is a gorgeous vehicle.. Not a big fan of the wheels.. That interior colour is fantastic. It would be my pick. My last vehicle was a 2015 Cadillac ATS Coupe and I ordered it with the available Kona Brown interior. A stunning interior. Everyone loved it.. Personally, if available, I always like to get a vehicle with an interior colour other than black. Yes, I agree, leasing this vehicle would be the way to go.
Good work guys. Lots of useful details. Keep going.
Hi guys,
Great review!!
Love that intangible neck nod of Andrea when she is in agreement!👌☺️
Great review. I’m thinking of leasing one next year, when the lease on my 2019 Acura TLX is up. I’m ready for some pain -and pleasure : )
Yes, I definitely would take a chance on an Alfa Romeo... on a lease.
Me too!
3 year lease or sell it after 3 years comes equal...
Great reviews !
Excellent review 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Owning an Alfa Stelvio 2.0 280hp for 5 years this year and super happy with it…just went to the dealer for the same Giulia as in the video for the 2nd family car, 3rd Alfa overall…same reliability as our current volvo V90 so no problem on that side! bmw (owned 2 as well) audi and co are good cars but none have the heart and soul of an Alfa! Like J. Clarkson once said, you’re not a true petrolhead unless you’ve owned an Alfa…it’s true!
We really like driving them, it's good to get reliability feedback, so thanks.
Zack, that leather bag is stunning. It looks like it will last a lifetime.
Finally a car that's chic enough to match Andrea 😍. Such a beautiful car, inside and out, but I wouldn't touch it with a 10 foot pole, even as a lease, because of the reliability nightmare that it could turn into!
Why make a statement like that have you heard of any reliability issues?
@@991carreras3 Yes; in fact, I don't think it's possible NOT to hear about the Alpha Romeo reliability issues!
@@sammyt3514 Visit a forum. A majority have had great reliability. The problem model is the 2017-18 QV. Don't rely on Consumer Reports!!!
@@brianb7844 You stick to your forums; I don't pay attention to anonymous anecdotal comments by relatively few individuals in those forums when there are reliability surveys, including CR, where thousands of people give their feedback about reliability. Those surveys, both in the US and Europe (in English and French!), always show Alfa Romeo near the bottom, so I'm not going to waste time arguing this well-established fact. If you're happy with yours, good for you, but that has nothing to do with how I feel about the reliability of Alpha Romeo!
@@sammyt3514 try spelling it right for starters.
I agree about the infotainment screen - 8.8 inches are more than enough. I am bemused by all the honking big screens that are becoming the rage today. These screens are so obtrusive.
This is a car, not a giant smartphone. The size of the screen doesn't make the user interface easier to use. I mean, how often does one fiddle with the settings anyway? I generally set it once and not touch it again for months.
2020 and newer Alfa reliability and quality are much better than the previous years. All of the bad stats are from the older cars.
Agreed Gregg. Most here who comment about reliability know nothing about the newer model improvements (2019-2021). They are still fixated on the Alfa reliability from decades ago.
When we were stationed to Germany one guy in our unit bought an Alfa Romeo he was the envy of our unit of 700 guys!!! It was a gorgeous car it stood out amongst all the other hot hatchbacks we all bought instead. Back in the 90's though it seemed to be a rust bucket... but in that Alfa Red it was just stunning to look at!!! Looking on Kijiji there are only 28 cars listed in all of Canada and most of them are only a couple of years old at $30K so that tells me they either don't sell many here or people don't sell them!!! my guess is that they don't sell too many vehicles!!!
well presented video. Beautiful color on that Giulia
Perfect car to lease.... Great choice for a review and .... Andria looks great in a Gulia... 😉
Mazda look is great , at least it does not have a Honda look.
Beautiful Car Alfa Romeo 👍👌🏆
Fun car, nice. Crowes play in Ridgefield and Auburn next month
Great live, met them on their first tour...
@@Motormouth... That's awesome, yes esp back then
Love the bag!
9:40 2.5 years went by ...still waiting for any pain.
Of course not I'm not waiting. I'm not new to the brand, I trust it.
My Stelvio wasn't leased, it was bought. ...because these cars represent one of the few last gems for petrol heads.
Only non-owners have reliability concerns with the brand.
I am probably going to trade in my 2020 Subaru WRX STi on Monday for a 2021 Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Sport, and thanks for a great video confirming that I am making the right decision
Did you make the switch? How do you like it?
@@jjchockey Yes I did and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I love the Alfa Giulia, the handing is great, the car is peppier than I would have imagined and the interior is beautiful (very Ferrari like)
@@clyde5273 That's good to hear. I will probably get one as my daily. No other sedan I've driven has this good steering and driving dynamics imo. S3, S4, M3, Mercs, XE, they dont compare imo. The only car I've driven that gives me the same feeling is the Focus RS but this is obviously much more comfortable and refined. How does the handling and steering compare to your STI?
@@jjchockey Its good to know you have tried a lot of other cars and found that the Giulia stands above them all on handling. I would agree. The major difference I find with the Subaru WRZ STi aside from the fact that it feels more solid, much nicer interior, better audio system, etc.., is that the handling is crisper but without the punishing ride that I experienced in the STi. I had a Jaguar XE before the STi and I can say that this handles much better than that car too, thought that car also had a nicer interior, etc... and a good ride (it felt kind of boring though, while the Giuilia does not).
@@clyde5273 Ya i've driven hundreds of different cars and the Giulia is definitely a stand out. My daily/only car right now is a Miata but I'm looking for a real daily and this might just be it. It is such an underrated car, even my car friends think I'm crazy when I say it is more fun than an S3 or even the 70k B9 S4 I had. I just reply with drive one then talk. I don't think this car will truly be appreciated until it is long gone. It isn't very impressive when you look at the spec sheet, it is all about how it drives and makes you feel.
Great job! Thanks
I was hoping that Zac would wear an Armani suit while sitting in the Italian beauty
I went with the Cadillac CT4-V 2020, which I consider to be the sleeper in the miles per fun meters.
Great choice
Reliability ratings are not about whether or not you will experience problems. They're about the *likelihood* that you may experience problems. If you're lucky, you'll have no issues. If you're not lucky, too bad.
The question ultimately comes down to: Do you feel lucky? Well, do you...punk?
If you want to be lucky in an Alfa, just get the one with the 4 leaf clover on the side. Bada bing, bada boom.
I think that a big screen isn't nice to drive its distraction and the way alfa placed the screen its just one with the interior so I like it more then those from any brand
My only complaint is wish the headlights was slimmer. I think the Housing reminds me of an early 2000s headlights.
its funny to me how soo many reviewers and journalists give alfa bad points for reliability, but all the consumer reviews ive seen seem to have no less problems than something like a ford or chevy.
I do like this car, have the considered coming out with a larger sized sedan?
We asked it for years here in Italy, who knows
Probobly not, this size sells well in Europe.
the turning radius is reduced because its a Q4(drive shaft going into front wheels) not because of its handling capability.
I had one chance to share a household (Back in the day) with a gray red interior standard two sitter Alfa (1960something) and I can attest that it was the sexiest vehicle I been in in my life. The older MB came close very very close but no dice boys.
You are right, look nice; however, looks like Alfa Romeo is using the older Mazda 6 planform and similar body panels from a few years ago while using newer electronics and and updated interior.
Nice vehicle! I love the touchscreen location is perfect spot there. I can’t help notice the red light on the door, what was it? Scale 1 to 10, I give this vehicle at 7. Cheers Andrea! 👊🏻👊🏻
The red light indicates that the door is locked.

@@davidthompson4489 We must have been typing at the same time.
@@andreaspencer9813 I am glad you enjoyed it. 👍🏻
Don't get hung up on the reliability downers. I watched dozens of videos about this car. And they are raving about it and say they have little to no problems. Trust me, you Benz or Bimmer will be in the garage far more often.
Putting your wife in the thumbnails is clever. Got me watching some videos. Haha. 👍
It is a nice Alfa. The man has right it could have been just a bit more sporty in basic trim. That is how an Alfa shoud appear. However the sporty image isn't what it has been in Europe meaning slimmed down. Alfa has always had good seats. The price is too high here (starting at 62214, Canadian Dollars for a simple 2liter petrol 280 horse) (we are close to Itally? ) so customers go shopping with BMW. The Stelvio sells reasonably here.
Nice car, but I’d be afraid to buy Italian. If I was to buy one, I’d buy used.
You are missing out then. Reliability is now on par with other foreign brands.
One very nice vehicle!
What are the reliability and maintenance costs for this model?
I have a GLC 43 Benz....with the worst shifting trans ever! Germany has its issues too..... don’t kid yourself. Off to the dealer for a new valve body after the long weekend and a re re program. Buy the Alpha and live the Italian dream.
If a person with high taste, he can enjoys every line, colour or detail and how everything comes together beautifully, durability comes second especially even Japanese cars has mediocre dependability nowadays
What might be interesting is to test in the segment cars 3 or 4 years on.
Zack is right. The rear end could have used a bit more flare.
I test drove one. Not what I expected. Handled nice. Bad turbo lag. Don't open the sunroof at highway speeds. Not a bad car but not as good as a Stinger.
Kia?! Hahahahahahaah. Ok bud.
