I like the Quadrifoglio. Even considered going to it from my E63 AMG Mercedes. But the road tests (the early ones anyway)
scared me off with a bunch of drivability problems. Seems they were having trouble with engine management etc.
Yours been good for you?
Is it true an oil change can be quite pricey on both?It's my second one. I started with a 2018, then traded for a 2020 to get the touchscreen, wireless phone charger, Level 2 driving aids, exposed carbon roof, and additional port injectors. 2017's had lots of early teething software problems, well documented. I even had a couple of entertainment system glitches in my 2018. But what those same "journalists" who panned the car for being unreliable didn't follow up later to note that most of these issues were simple software updates that resolved the issues. It's the same tired old trope of Italian cars being unreliable. Whatever. My wife drove a 2018 Giulia TI and now has a 2020 Stelvio. So we've been driving Giorgio platform Alfas daily for 4 years now. Rock solid, this actually IS a Ferrari sedan.

Yeah I figured the early issues would've been sorted by now. If my AMG ever fails to put a big grin on my face (hasn't happened yet) I will definitelyIt's my second one.

ALL oil changes can be pricey. Depends on what you consider pricey. Personally I prefer to have factory trained techs maintaining my Mercedes. Always have them check the car from stem to stern whenever I take it in for servicing. Keep em up or don't keep em.Is it true an oil change can be quite pricey on both?
Sure... I will concede, it is better looking than a Tesla, it IS Italian after all. But for $75,000, I could have 3 or 4 more interesting cars...
Oh, they are. My 2020 Stelvio and Giulia Quad have been flawless. Bummer is that the options for 2022 stink, not sure I'll be trading up anytime soon. The C63 definitely makes all the right noises!Yeah I figured the early issues would've been sorted by now. If my AMG ever fails to put a big grin on my face (hasn't happened yet) I will definitely
consider the Alfa.
The C63 is a hot rod for sure. Just a touch too small for me. I prefer the midsize E model for a little extra interior room.Oh, they are. My 2020 Stelvio and Giulia Quad have been flawless.

They’re getting there, especially for lightly driven ones. A fair amount surface in SoCal with under 20k miles for under $30k, which is in the same area as a Mazda 6.Glad to hear the Giulias are driving well. Prices aren't quite down to bottom feeder zone, but like all Alfa sedans, will get there in time.
Share a link to a Giulia Quadrifoglio for under $30k, and not on copart…They’re getting there, especially for lightly driven ones. A fair amount surface in SoCal with under 20k miles for under $30k, which is in the same area as a Mazda 6.
Lol. Well duh, not a Q. C’mon man. But a loaded non-Q. Thought that was obviousShare a link to a Giulia Quadrifoglio for under $30k, and not on copart…
