The new Alfa Romeo Giulia
 
(Recreated post, because I spelled "Romeo" incorrectly and couldn't change it)

I think I should begin saving up for this.

Should be coming to America.

From the article:
Parked inside the renovated Alfa Romeo Museum in Arese, Italy, which will open its doors to the public on June 30, the Giulia QV looks more sculpted than we originally thought, but we won't blame you for seeing a bit of BMW F30 3-Series-ness on the profile and a mix of Jaguar XE and Mazda6 in the rear quarter.

Not sure, but I would venture to guess $60-70k (maybe more?).

It's supposed to compete with the 3-series M and based off of the 4C's price...

Up to 500hp? This will have no problem seeing a 6 digit price tag.

Hopefully not, but yes, I see your point.

I would be interested in a wagon like this.

Good for you!! Not being sarcastic either. An Alfa is one of those cars an enthusiast must have. Even if I could afford one I'd probably be in something else if we are talking north of $90k.

I think this car may possibly be in the M3 range? Just my guess

Firebase99 06-28-2015 04:49 PM

Read somewhere today the 500 hp is going to start at $75k. That's actually not too bad IMO. However, it IS an Alfa so you'll need two of them. One for the garage and one for driving.

kenchan 06-29-2015 11:56 AM

at that price i would not hesitate to get the M3.

Haboob 06-29-2015 12:29 PM

I wouldn't get an M3, just for the BMW owner stigma. :icon17: That and I don't think they sound all that good.

Nice looking saloon, notice that the rims on the white one look like the 09-12 Z's rays wheels.

Too many doors...just save some money and buy a minivan.

Alfa ALL DAY!!! It's so effing obvious the BMW is computer controlled and sounds like shyt. The Alfa was OBVIOUSLY actually being driven with a non intrusive stability control and was faster overall... DRIVERS CAR GOES TO ALFA.

Proof is in the video...

If their reliability is still in the toilet...I'll take a Corolla.

Was at an Alfa dealer a couple weeks ago to check out the 4C. Sales manager said these will be direct competitors to BMW 3 series in all trim levels. Will start at low 40k range all the way to M3 level around 70-75k.

I would have to take the Alfa over the M3.

This. All day.

UNKNOWN_370 09-11-2015 09:56 AM

Wow... Alfa is the only company with a TRUE sports car.
No power steering, no hydraulics, a true sport rack and pinion steering mechanism. Very LIMITED traction control. A real dual clutch and real manual. Extremely light with all the power to back it up. Has equal track times as a Cayman s. Did y'all forget what real sports cars felt like?
And now, they're making a TRUE sports sedan. ALFA is the ONLY car of its kind.

These opinions are why foreign car companies keep the real shyt overseas.

......I kinda want one :yum:

It would be irrational to be a true enthusiast and dismiss Alfa!:driving:

And what really boggles me is that so many people, talk about electronics being too intrusive in modern sports cars but the first car everyone WANTS is the most technologically electronic sports car in the industry, the Porsche 911 and the Porsche Cayman S.... Love Porsche but just being real... THe GTR IS A VIDEO GAME on wheels? The GTR at least is 50% RWD and has a hydraulic steering unit.

Now that the real deal is here. A Ferrari from the 80's with modern day precision at an AFFORDABLE PRICE.
And they rather drive Toyota's? LMFAO, WOW! :confused::confused:

I'm sorry I'm ranting. It's just crazy to me...
I'm seriously lost

Over and out!

UNKNOWN_370 09-11-2015 03:20 PM

Sorry to drop reality on the thread...These Alfas are SOOOO ugly. Please let me know what you guys are drinking, because I will pick it up tomorrow at the liquor store!

Aesthetics of what a sports car is??? Subjective???

Lol... No you calling it ugly is subjective...

The way this car has been designed, Weight, balance, lack of electronic intrusion, RWD, Mid-Engined dual clutch turbocharged engine...
The Reality is that, factually, this is what every enthusiast in love with driving has been asking for and Alfa gave it first at an affordable price.

Now they're building a sport sedan inspired on the same premise... I'm sorry bruh. But, aesthetically, the 4c is the FACTUAL definition of a sports car. And I expect the Guillia to bring something unseen in sports sedans. Alfa's will be legendary again.

Thank you Ferrari for giving us affordable supercars!!!

G37Sam 09-12-2015 01:47 AM

I can't wait for the Giulia to hit the floors! The 4C was an absolute pleasure to drive. The rawness, noises, exhaust and feel was just.. wow. They don't build cars like that anymore.

I would love to get the 4C such a raw sports reminds me of the Mazda fd3s..but they only make it in automatic.

I think Nissan should be using this car as the next Z benchmark instead of the Porsche. This reminds me of the original 240z. If Nissan needs to do a power and weight reduction? This car is the car to follow... Not an FR-S.

DLSTR 09-13-2015 03:07 PM

The new Giulia will be amazing and distinctive. You probably wont see yourself coming and going like me, as a BMW owner where they are every 10 meters. I cannot wait to try this machine. LIke others have posted the 4C is the standard now. Light, fun, loud and fairly uncompromising. My 2 hour test in that machine was soooooooooooo much fun!!!!!!!!

Refreshing it is to see both of these alive. In a sea of fairly boring design and function - Alfa stands out. Glad they are back! Enjoy it man!

2016 Alfa Romeo Giulia Preview - CNET

At slightly over $81,000 starting price. I think this is about $11,000 more than I hoped.

But I'm guessing nothing is going to be able to touch it in terms of the experience.

BlackZeda 09-28-2015 08:20 PM

It sounds pretty gnarly
