Absolutely correct. I drove my 18 QV back to back with 18 M3. Steering on M3 was far short of inspirational compared to the Alfa. Left right transition felt almost American muscle car like I the M3. I'm sure the new M3 improved on that, thanks to the Alfa QV.

And I have just looked at lap times of some cars... this Alfa is quicker than : Ferrari 458 Italia, Porshe GT3 RS 997, Koenigsegg CCX and CCR, Nissan GTR 2011, Lexus LFA, Mercedes AMG GTS, McLaren 650S, Veyron, SLR, Zonda and many others like Panamera Turbo 2016. Most shocking thing is that Alfa is 20 seconds faster than M4.

All that is for sissys

It was a about 14 years ago when I first sat into AR seat. Was looking for a new car and AR came into focus, I had pretty neutral view of AR at the time - had not owned or driven one, so I was neutral. The moment I sat in - was AR156 Twin Spark Selespeed - I was like "wow!", I mean, it just fit perfectly, like the best leather glove you've ever worn. Everything was aimed at the driver, all dials, steering wheel felt natural in hand, seats were perfect.. And I've driven and tried many other cars, quite good ones among them but somehow it felt "right" in AR. I remember how about 3 years later 159 was announced and when I saw its images for the first time, I was smitten. Absolutely amazing design. I went to AR dealership and asked about it and they said they haven't even seen it yet, so new it was. So for a while I kept visiting the dealership periodically and asking "when's the new 159 coming?" and one day they said, "now it is!". I got pretty much one of the very first ones brought into my country and it was amazing. 4 years after that I went for a new car again and this time I got AR 159 TBi Ti. I loved that car especially since every single bit of that car I chose, I had better situation with funds at that time. Every extra, every bit and piece was selected by me and the end result was amazing. To this day it's considered one of the most beautiful and best AR's which has driven on the streets of this country. Sadly after another 4 years life changed and I had to change many things in life as well. That AR159 went away from me and I switched to another car, but AR's been on my mind all the time. When I heard of Giulia, I kept scouring the internet for any and all details I could find on it, but AR company had been very successful in keeping it's details secret. Impressive, usually new car details are found out soon enough but Giulia remained hidden practically all the way to the end. When AR dealership got their first Giulia's here, they called to me and invited me over to look at it and do a test drive. Because they knew that it's something I love and been waiting for a long time. The very moment I sat into the new Giulia felt like "welcome home!" moment to me. Unfortunately I cannot afford to buy one for now since the life is just getting slowly stabilized, but I've seen it finally and at least was able to try it. But I promise that if I will win the lottery, one of the very first things I will do is head straight into AR dealership and get to myself a new AR, a red Giulia. And yes, Alfa Rosso red, to me AR can only be red and nothing else :)

It's not really though. I love how everyone falls for marketing so easily. All people should listen to Chris Harris and Harry Metcalfe's podcast. They basically state how all manufacturer times at the nurburgring are highly suspect and not to believe anything a manufacturer tells you. I love the Giulia but I don't for a moment believe that a 4 door saloon could every be as exciting to drive as a McLaren 570s which weighs almost 400kg less and has more power. It is ludicrous to suggest that these two cars are in the same category of speed. Put them on track at the same time and I guarantee that the McLaren will be miles ahead.

the first RWD Alfa in 30 years - it's like that horrible period of FWD madness never existed.

Until the early 70s, Alfa Romeos were much more desirable (and faster) than German sports sedans. After Fiat bought Alfa the brand went downhill, because the Fiat people wanted to destroy the brand that out sold them in the higher priced sedan category in Italy. They did the same to Lancia, by the way. I remember driving an Alfa Giulia Sprint Speciale (ok a sports coupe, not a sedan) a friend loaned me to drive to Munich from Livorno, Italy back in 1972 or so . We passed every German car on the Autobahn once we got to Germany. Even the 2002 Tiis didn't stand a chance, even with 400 more CCs. . Glad Alfa has been allowed to return to their roots.

Untill late 70s ieven Fiats could go toe to toe with BMW. 124 Special T, Spider, Spider Abarth, 125s, 131 Supermirafiori, 131 Abarth, 132 2000, 130, Dino...

Bravo Alfa! Welcome back, the world has missed you!

No doubt this is a fantastic car, especially considered the price point, but chapeau to Fabio Francia. He drove the car like a maniac and he had a couple of hair-rising moments. I know that the surface of the Nürburgring has a lot of nasty bumps and it's not in the best of conditions, but it seems to me that Francia was fighting with the car the whole lap. I had trouble sitting still while watching this. Before flaming me, go and check other on-board videos and you will see what I mean.

Ah... I almost forgot: and he did it without wearing a race suit, on a standard seat, and just with the normal three-point seat belt. I don't even think that the car had a rollbar. At one point I saw 284 km/h on the tacho. This borders on insanity.

Roberto Totaro -- modern cars have built-in roll cages (sort of) -- they have side intrusion bars like a roll cage, and the A, B and C pillars are heavily reinforced like a rollcage which forms a rollover protection system. They are relatively safe in a rollover, compared to say a 1970 Giulia, which is indeed completely unsafe in a crash and will crumple like a tin can! :)

@@TassieLorenzo he's refering to most car company have extra roll cage added to provide additional safety for their drivers when they are doing laps on the ring, but the additional roll cage also adds additional chassis stiffening which makes the car quicker

Ringraziamo il buon Giorgio Francia che non ci ha lasciati orfani.. grande Fabio, speriamo di vederti presto in un eventuale DTM a combattere come papà...

True record lap driving by all means, period!!! An enormous Bravo to the driver and a well deserve bravo to Alfa Romeo!!!

That is by far the wildest OEM track record I've seen car was on the edge the whole time

@@Sauron.1 Yeah, and with the infamous Italian car reliability that joy won't be long-lived. If I had the money to buy an Alfa Romeo Guilia QV which is faster around the Nurburgring or an AMG Mercedes, BMW M4 or an Audi RS which are slightly slower than the Alfa Romeo I'd still buy any of those. Why? Well, when paying premium money for a premium product I expect premium reliability. And I'm afraid Italian cars don't rank anywhere near the top when it comes to reliability. Kudos to Alfa for this fantastic car. Well done. But we'll see in 3-4 years where they'll be.

this is the only car I have ever driven that can give you maximum comfort, but with maximum brutality if you push it. Truly an experience

Alfa Romeo number one in the world

Just a casual dude in his shirt, watch and jeans setting a lap record. Not even bothering with left-foot braking or any other 'fancy' stuff such as live tracking/position or GPS speed or any other tech stuff, just some duct tape as GoPro mount. I love it!

Wow what an aggressive and fast driver...there was a big moment at the curb after foxhole. Respect for your balls and driving skills!

che auto che pilota, ragazzi sto video è tanta roba w il mady in italy grande fca grande Alfa

Holy shit!!! From 1:18-1:52 is some of the most incredible car control I've ever seen. He is right on the edge of what is physically possible. It also shows just how bumpy and rutted the nurburgring is. There's a terrible jolt every time he goes over a bump. And that noise!!! Sounds like a wolf.

255kph coming down on bumps and doing corrections.... balls of steel. Crazy video!

Family sedan, Italian style!

what a lap!! now that's an insane good driver! when I saw the Aventador SV record, I kept thinking how the driver wasn't pushing 100% because he was scared (not a bad thing), but this driver of this alfa romeo video, wow! he's a real lap time hungry driver

Perfect Alfa Romeo ... Style and Pleasure to Drive ... Giulia Quadrifoglio Perfect ...

I liked this when #AlfaRomeo released this video 4 yrs ago and still from time 2 time I back and enjoy to watch it again and again.. Thanks God for #AlfaRomeo ❤

Good grief. That was like watching an accident that lasts for seven and a half minutes but without the crash at the end of it. Total respect to Mr. Francia for how he conducted that beautiful Alfa Romeo.

Love how the gopro in the dash is sticked with duct tape. Gotta love the italians.
