Every time I see an Alfa in a US road I want to leap out of my car and hug it.

This car is so underrated, style inside and out is like a high end sports car. Italian leather and design is sweet. Comes with Brembo brakes just little things like that make this car unique and make you feel like you are driving a 80k sports car.

Another hidden feature is when the headlights are in 'auto mode', then put them on full beam for two seconds, they automatically dip when they 'see' other car's headlights approaching, very useful

I’m 61 yrs and just bought a ‘19 Giulia with 40k miles and absolutely love it! My peers say maintenance will be so high I’ll regret it. I seriously doubt it!

Thank you! I only knew about half of these; I didn't realize it had the rear fog lights. I have a 2011 Jaguar XJ with those and when I got that car years ago I had no idea what a "rear fog light" was. Believe me, it DOES make you MUCH easier to see for vehicles behind you in fog! Every time I drive my Giulia I giggle because it is so precise I feel like I can write my name with the front tires! LOVE this thing! Good job!

Also remote start under 40 degrees turns on heated front seats and steering wheel. My favorite feature!

I had a hard time finding videos on that too when I was looking to purchase mine. I can tell you from experience the Q4 (with the performance package so it has the LSD) with winter tires is phenomenal for Canadian winter driving and I highly recommend it. The traction control is very well implemented IMO too which makes the car just that much better for winter driving. I did find it bogs the car down a little too much in deep snow (over the bottom for the front bumper deep) when on the A or N mode but the D mode allows more slippage and doesn't reduce power as much so oddly enough it's the best mode to drive in when going though very deep snow. Any other questions let me know :)

fwiw, the IBS system in Race is more subtle, rather than stronger. I suspect it's for more accuracy in braking rather than increased braking strength. I prefer it because it's a lot LESS grippy below 5mph. Keeping it in Dynamic is a bit jerky for traffic usage. Also, the triangle for the blind spot is actually the same triangle as the Quadrifoglio, which is an homage to their racing legacy, and Ugo's memory.

Dont worry about the brake by wire. The system if it senses a fault has a valve that opens up and allows a traditional hydraulic system to take place. Though I still like my traditional systems, they use these in many different cars including the Toyota Prius!

Oh Dear- Fog Lights are Fog Lights- they are for using in BAD fog as it helps the car be visible when visibility is so bad you can't see the car normally. They are NOT for Snow or rain as you said, but i see so many Americans use them that way- "Oh i want my rear lights to be brighter so i'll use the fog lights". The only thing that does is create glare and make actual brake lights much harder to see ! really annoying

I'm leasing a 2019 Gulia that will 2 years in July, and has less than 20,00 miles. Yes it is an awesome car. In one year I will turn it in and will not be replacing it with another Gulia.

The day we left I attempted to open the trunk and and no luck the battery in dead and it won't open. The battery is in the trunk. Needless to say we are in the middle of nowhere, I know how to repairs cars. I taught auto shop for 12 years but I don't carry tools for this one. We eventually got it started and worried all the way home. I checked this out on the internet and this problem is not uncommon.
