Congrats! It does sound like you made your choice. I do believe the Alfa is the better car for performance and styling. But personally, I would've probably still bought the Q50. The one important point that sways me is reliability. Alfa Romeo does not have a good track record and I think the FCA influence has made it worse. But, I do say it often....you should always buy what you like and screw the stats.

1. Alfa Romeo was desperate for an American comeback and they KNOW the heart of a comeback being successful is in making a reliable car. 2. The 952 (Giulia), came out in 2015. It took 2 years to bring it here cuz they went over ALL their gremlins with a fine tooth comb before bringing it here. 3. Reliability was concern one from its inception. The conglomerate of engineers they used for this design study from Ferrari, Alfa and input from the Germans make me confident they are trying to build a better product. 4. When you are at the dealer and going thru a $45,000 Alfa. You think you're sitting in a $70,000 car. Though, BMW & Mercedes surpass interior quality, but exterior? It's truly wow! Especially in volcano black, trifecta white, vesuvio grey, rosso competizione (red). When you're test driving them within a recent time period, with infiniti's gotcha packaging scheme n front heavy handling at 7/10ths.compared to the Alfa's mid engine feel at 7/10ths. It's hard to pass it up. If at the end of my warranty? I've had obnoxious bugs and issues concerning this car? I'll leave the brand. But if not? Model 2020... I WILL GET A QUADRIFOGLIO!! Somebody has to buy them to know if they're reliable or not? NOTHING drives like it. And as a TRUE auto enthusiast. I gotta.... I just gotta!!! Lol It is said in the culture. To be a true enthusiast, you have to own at least one Alfa in your lifetime. Lol. So be it!!!
