Ireland. 2019 Giulia SuperSport 2.0 petrol in Vulcano Black with red leather interior, grey Matt alloys and red calipers. One word....awesome. 2,000 miles done. Love It!! Super quiet when u want, goes like a beast when u want. Aluminium paddle shifters are the best and agree .. downshift blips sound great. Turn in is super quick. Road manners incredible. Quality of ride is superb. They really nailed this one.

I just helped my dad pick out a new car and he ended up with a Giulia Lusso with a pretty similar color combo to this, Vesuvio grey with the red leather interior. Really cool thing about Lusso is that the dash you weren't so sure about is covered by stitched leather, something that blows me away because that kind of thing is a crazy expensive option on 75k+ M3s and Porsches. He got an insane deal on a leftover new '18 as well, around 35k for a car with a sticker price of almost 50k. I really dig it myself, I love my Fiesta ST but man, I'm seeing 300/mo lease deals on Giulias and it's hard to resist getting one of my own as well.

I'm 76 yr old. I love my 2017 Giulia Base in Rosso Red (OMG, it is gorgeous). The very best sports sedan I have ever driven, period. Amazing gas mileage when driven like an old lady (1900 rpm's at 72mph) and 8 speed very sofisticated transmission with paddle shifters, 149 mph. Goes like a bat out of hell in Dynamic trans mode, or manual mode with the AWD (don't settle for 2WD). AWD is amazing in snow with regular tires and 0.6 seconds faster to 60mph than 2WD. Performance, suspension, handling, cornering is more like a sport car than a sedan. Take it for a test drive (a must). I use any excuse to take it for a spin. My wife loves that I am so happy. She tells friends she is my #2 girlfriend and my #1 GF is an Italian chic. Alfa Romeo Giulia, pure class!

Love this badge story 👍🏾

To me the biggest risk is whether the brand will stick around in North America or not. The relaunch of the brand here has not been a runaway success. The dealer network is spotty and unlikely to get better. Some are paired with Maserati and others are paired with Chrysler/jeep dealers. Definitely something to lease rather than buy. I enjoyed my Giulia while I had it. It was also super reliable. Excellent driver's car. The interior let it down. Went back to BMW when my lease ended. Will consider Alfa in the future though assuming they stick around.

he keeps calling the nero edizione package the q2 package, q2 means it's rear wheel drive. And, this is a ti sport not a ti.

I really appreciate this info, as I've been trying to research the Giulia as a next car for me, and I kept seeing Nero Edizione and Ti, but no Q2. Thank you for clarifying!

I’m really thinking about buying one, what’s the risk? Getting it serviced in the states?

"It's an interesting choice....Nice to have options, and you definitely get it" LOL Beaming praise 😂

What risk? It's the best car of this age (preformance wise)

Nahhh come on. Any stock gtr will blow this out of the water, not to mention Porsche. Honestly, a stock Evo or sti will kill this car too.. not to mention if you put 5-10k under the hood of those cars

Austin Green I bed to differ this car is very fast

Looks like a nice fun capable car that can be enjoyed daily. Wish you would have shown your contortions getting in and out of the back seat Joe! When you show the iconic Alfa grill I laughed out loud. True story when I visited Alfa dealer many years ago my folks wanted to see what I was looking at. When my Mother looked at the front of the car she stated the center grill looked like the cup area of a jock strap. I just shook my head and laughed then as now. I do really like the styling of the Alfa Romeo cars.

Zonk master..I have no problem plugging in my USB and using cup holder? But my tall thermos does interfer with climate controls...0-60 awd does 5.0 sec. BTW....Feels as fast as my STi if not faster... Paddle shifters are excellent. Nice review.

Risk? The only risk I see is to fall in love with the Giulia

I drive a 2017 Giulia Ti - overall reliability about 85% (jumped into limp mode a couple of times) + some fit/finish issues (carpeting coming apart). Amazingly great dealer experience. I've only driven it about 8K miles...mushier breaks than the Germans. Has anyone else had these issues? Thanks.

Hi there, nothing serious that I recall and if there was anything it was repaired under warranty. I also got rid of it at the end of year 3 in case there were going to be any issues...First gen. Honestly based on my experience I would recommend the car. In fact a colleague at work was swayed enough by my input to buy one. He seems happy with it.

Driven both the stelvio & giulia, fell in love with both. I definitely want to get a giulia- but everyone says they’re not reliable. I’m conflicted i definitely want one

I want say Raiti's italian styllian you good yourself How you doing!

Man, I wish I had the money for a Giulia :( Definitely my dream car.

whats the difference between the Giulia base and the Giulia Ti???? is the base not turbo?? kinda like the bmw 320i??? or is the base model also 280 hp turbo? I'm trying to look online to lease

Nice video. My concern is maintaining this if out of warranty. Residual value tanks on this car or brand. Reliable is not great.
