![Should I buy an Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio ? [MY NEXT CAR]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/Z6XksHn_PbE/mqdefault.jpg)
As an owner of a Giulia Quadrifoglio myself, after 10 months and 8,000 miles, I can confirm that it has had 0 maintenance issues, whatsoever
Great to hear! Ill be in the market for one eventually
I'm also a owner of a Giulia QV and have had zero issues. But even tho I've had mine for 10 months too, it still has less then 2k miles, lol.
Henry Robinson : Just wait till 30k service... I just watched the other vid with same car doing 30k service, cost $2g on “basic” maintenance.. I was shocked.
Thats not uncommon mark tu. I use to own an E46 M3 and every 30k miles I had to do a $3k maintenance on it.
Why are you so suprised ? Alfa dont have problems since the early 90s... Oh i forgot that the US didnt have ones like 166 and 156. If thats where you are from. And stuff like the 147 159 brera are amazing and very good in quality. My car is a 156 V6 and its amazing. Even though its 17 years old.
But what's the Doug's Score?
😂
AHAHAHAH
Before he start the Doug score
He forgot to mentions its quirks and features
Forget Doug who cares what he thinks!
Motor trend put it head to head against everything in its class, including the M3 performance package. It beat them all out on the track. Check the vid.
Mark Anthony check the lap times of the nurburgring, it's faster than a Ferrari 458 Italia, a freaking Pagani Zonda F , and a Porsche GT3 RS mi peeps
Not saying it's not an incredible car, but I wouldn't base your opinions solely from motor trend. Most of the "winning" brands are actually just the highest bidder.
Check out the Top gear test as wel
it was badly beaten by tesla model 3 though :)
@@demon3825 ITS FASTER THAN A 458?! thats basically cananilism by alfa HAHAHA very goods car
ALFA 7.32.00 M3 7.52.00 NRING. ITALIANS DO IT BETTER, EVER
STELVIO 7:51:8!! Better than m3
Dan L
You can buy 2 Alfa Romeo Giulia QV at the same price of 1 BMW M4 GTS
Carlo de visu; ....... and if you want an even faster Giulia you could buy the Giulia GTA .... and the m4GTS can go home !
I'm italian and I'm proud of my country
Every Italian product is unique and different from the others, i love and buy them.Bless you and your country 🇮🇹 🇮🇹
except for maybe Mussolini
I'm a BMW guy owning 2 BMW M5's but this car is surely tempting...much more than the M3 tempts me
rick nineg which m5's do you own?
Then you're not a bmw guy.
LegendInThaMakin because he thinks this car is better then another car? Dude, I like Audi but don't think an new a1 is a better option then a Smart or Polo.
The last good bmw m car was the e92 m3
Bernardo Adao The F80 is a good car. I’ve driven an F82 M4 and it is lovely.
I'll take one in 3 years for 35k :)
Daniel Williams okay
You must be thinking of the BMW M 3 which will depreciate faster than the market fell today !!!! This is, in comparison, limited production and a 4 DOOR FERRARI DAWG....MIC DROP
Dino Pappous but it’s not a Ferrari...
If yall are buying these types of cars based on resale value then you are shopping for the wrong car. Maybe a minivan is more your speed. It's a sports car with 4 doors. Get in it, drive it, run it, have fun.
You know it DAWG.....THIS IS A 4 DOOR FERRARI.....see you later to the GERMANS !!!! QUAD OR BUST DAWG....CHANGE YOUR NAME WHILE YOU STILL HAVE TIME>>>>>> PEACE !!!
Finally Alfa Romeo such an amazing beautiful car
It's the first alfa review iv seen Parker do love Alfa your not a real car lover until youv owned and driven one
5:14 My favorite feature is the "Hardan Karmon" sound system! 😂
mitdbtsitbmio hardon 😂😂😂
An aftermarket will easily mute that garbage radio
You're gonna need that electronics warranty on an alfa 😂
I'm a big fan of Mercedes, but that Alfa is so much better looking and sounding
Exterior wise yes it looks way better than the c63. Interior wise c63 looks way better. And sound v8 over v6 anyday so c63 sounds way better. The alfa is more agile and handles better however.
There is also the fact that one is significantly more reliable than the other and also comes as a coupe, cabriolet and wagon.
So it really does depend on your preferences. One is more sporty in the sense of a gt car and the other is more sporty in the sense of a track sports car.
King of sting I just love the sound of alfas v6s
Hasan Al-habbobi don't get me wrong, the Mercedes biturbo v8 sounds menacing, but I would take the sound of alfas v6 any day of the week
No Chill Nick sorry dude. V8 rumble trumps v6 sound anyday of the week. Its not even a comparison. V8 is leagues above a v6 when it comes to sound. Don't get me wrong the v6 of the alfa sounds great but it can't touch and has nothing on the sound of a grumbling v8.
M3 is more capable than both LOL . 50 hp more for both and still they can't beat an 450 HP M3 on the track .
FINALLY! Great review Parker. We have 3 Quadrifoglios, all of which I've driven and they are one of the most exciting cars you'll ever experience!
Fun fact! Quadrofoglio means four leaf clover in Italian.
takes a genius to know that
Dominik Madej I was pleasantly surprised when I learned that. I was just spreading knowledge don't think many people make that correlation.
Oh dang, didn't even think of why they named it that. Now it makes sense, thanks!
Thanks Sheldon
Makes alot of sense after learning the history.
Salty Bmw fanboys incoming!
FinnishMotorFreak I am a BMW fan but I would take this over a M3
Millen Rogers good sport
Tech n Cars Thanks
hopefully BMW now feels the competition and makes a better M3, competition is great for the consumer.
Lmao
I’m proud to be italian🇮🇹
Graziano Barbieri well you have many things to be proud off like ice cream, cheese and pizza but for sure not Fiat or taxes. WTH! Sorry dude I have nothing to do right now 🙄
Thanks 4 lasagna
Guy Hawkes wrong country dude, have ever been to Italy?
Graziano Barbieri Rocco Siffredi is King !
For what pizza
Funny how avi will own this in 7-8 years 😂
Nick Cola I was going to say that
It will be flooded or crashed 😂😂
I have an M3, but I would definitely consider this car! Looks amazing, sounds better and I love them paddle shifters! Great car
M3/M4 has lost it touch since the e92. Its wack now and exhaust sounds awful. Interior also looks cheap.
hold up the interior is not cheap and dont even look cheap you would know this if you had one and i do and the leather stock seats are amazing they hold you in place and you also have some carbin intirioirin the inside and one of the best intertainment systems on the marker thats something alpha dont have and we also get kentara leather on the stearing wheel and my intirior is all white and looks amazing
Kc the e90 m3 always my favorite M even though I daily a c63 (fit what I needed and wanted more.so than the m3) I have to admit its easily a car I would want to own as well as.my current ones. That being said I did test out the new m3 and i thought it wasn't even close to being as bad as the general M fanatics were saying. I mean the car is an absolute beast and the looks are just killer. The e90 has those lasting looks and i think the new m3 does as well. Will still look good 10 years from now. The motor was extremely peaky though which threw me off guard. Boost comes in like a tidal wave lol. I thought it was a pretty badass car 100% didnt really see why all the hate but I do understand the difference between n/a and a turbo concerning overall feel. It is without a doubt a completely different car/experiecne than the e90.
Jose Alejandro the interior is hella cheap. Everything you just mentioned should be standard on all luxury cars. Put the c63 and M4/M3 interiors next to each other and you will see how regular and cheap the M3 interior is. It’s not even worth the asking price. Even the Audi S4/S5 has a better interior with the virtual cockpit. I used to be a big bmw fan but lately they’ve lost me. And they don’t even put much thought in their designs anymore. The new 5 series is basically the same design as the outgoing model, the same with the 7 series. All they do is connect the headlights to the grille and call it a new generation smh
Coming to BMW dealers soon ...CAMRY "M" !!!!
Kc I loved when they had the m3 from like 2008 I believe. With the v8 but it had a little bit more updates with the exterior to make it look more modern. I do believe that it was getting heavy but I loved it then. Porsche tried to do that shit with the Cayenne turbo and gts...finally glad they dismissed those downgrades in 2018. That was a close one! Have you also heard the new raptor? It has a v6 in it. Yuck
Son...this is a 4 Door Ferrari....not a glorified VW like Porsche.....FORZA ALFA BABY !!!
Hahahaha noobieee...and my american ford is actually a spaceship made by NASA....!!!!!!!!
I remember back in the day when Parker had under 100k and would reply to comments. Good times. Been here since the beginning
michael michetti hello old fella! Been here since his first video of M5 E39 back when he was balling with his dad's SLS...
1. Go to likegravity.com
2. Buy a pro membership
3. Comment on videos on the website where he promises to try and get back to every comment.
4. Leave disappointed
michael michetti No one actually cares.
michael michetti I remember when he bought that used yellow lambo and he was all serious but now he’s more goofy than streedspeed717
BUY IT!
Unknown Man i would if i had 80k
I’d take it over an M3 any day.. I have a 5 Series and BMW reliability is shit lol
John Glasscock Everyone loves to think BMWs are reliable until they own one 😂 I’d say otherwise man. BMWs are fun to drive, but they’re terrible reliability wise and super expensive to fix. And this car looks to be better than an M3 in every aspect, besides maybe fuel consumption.
I have a 435i mpe and have had 0 issues
Avi Stevens Same I have a 2006 330i e90 as long as you take car of it, there will be very few issues
the m cars are notorious for having serious issues, save the s65 motor in the e9X m3
1 series bmw for over 10 years and no issues. it's all based on luck if you get a lemon car or a decent car that is actually reliable also just upgraded to the m140i😎
I'm an alfaholic who wanted to thank you for sharing a little history on alfa. Few people know Enzo raced for alfa, even fewer know what the clover is about. Awesome man.
No people outside of Italians can pronounce quadrifoglio right😂
A Ferrari-derived 505-hp 2.9-liter twin-turbo V-6 drives the rear wheels...'nuff said
Id take alot of cars over an M3 bmw is living off its name and isnt relevant anymore
FloHellCat haha good joke, most popular car brand in the world, but nice try
FloHellCat kinda like apple
Are you drunk?
Jeppe Werring yeah I think he is
M3 has lost it touch since the e92. Its wack now and exhaust sounds awful. Interior also looks cheap
I sold my Nissan GTR to buy this car,and i love this car it makes you smile every time you drive it,also no issues ,one very minor problem which got sorted by Alfa,Bellismo.
is it as reliable as your becca pagani?
Pzero Killer yep
My father owns a Giulia Quadrifoglio and the reliability isn‘t too bad.
QF had/has errors in engine software. There are many known cases of fatal errors when even Alfas engineers could not figure out what was the problem. Thats why they depreciate like mofos. Except that QF is tremendous car!
We had an engine error too and it was caused by a defect oil pressure sensor. Moreover some panel gaps had to be adjusted, but otherwise we didn‘t have too much problems on the 23000km we own it.
T. J. Good for You! But this was a well known issue. Might be a childhood disease.
Yes, we Italians have honed the size of the paddles very much.
Macchina dei sogni😍 bellissima
Will always be my dream car
Same!
Sammy_sam662 getting mine August!
I’ll buy you one.
How was the m3 and merc good looking sports sedans
Their styling is boring just better rims some skirts and bumpers different to it's baslein models
And if you have a baseline car just tick the m performance or amg kit and there it looks same like the true m or amg
Ahmed Moosaji they are good looking. I will say the guilia looks a lot better but that doesn't take away from how good looking the c63 and m3 are.
Can’t wait for the Tesla fanboys that know nothing about cars to come along saying that “a P100D could smoke that thing in a drag race, and it has more power.” I DON’T CARE! This car is completely different, and just to get the fanboys back; this thing would destroy a Tesla around a track.
Edit: I am not saying Tesla is bad.
nybotor But, it is bad.
+In Aere Edificare like the car you own
Vibrant Mishra Which one?
I'm an alfa enthousiast and you just told me some thing I didn't even know :D
The gift of metal paddle shifters is so under appreciated. It feels so nice in the hand. Especially like the paddles on this beautiful Italian sport sedan.
You get the performance without the bad driving
is that why you have a gtr
GTR Wendy hey you!
Finally you made a review of a Alfa Romeo Giulia quadrifoglio
5:16 "14-speaker Hard-on Karmon sound system"... c'mon Parker, get your mind out of the gutter
I just noticed that 😂😂
hahahaha!!!!!! :))))))))))
KleiberFan 😂😂👍👍
you should drive the old rwd v6 alfas , the milano/75 and gtv6 , then you know a real alfa was
DEPROJECT this is the real one make no mistake
Yeah and he will also know how they smell ..... burned oil!!!!! And how they can be heard .... squicklinggggggggg
This video was one of the driving factors for me choosing the Q.V. as my daily driver. This in addition to the countless other reputable critics that loved the car, Parker’s assessment went a long way to swaying my choice. I wanted unique and performance and something I always felt proud to be seen in. This car delivers it all!
Mercedes quality, really??
With their cheap shit last minute stick on infotainment system lol.
Love how the infotainment screen is blended with the dash unlike other cars where it's projected or as a separate attachment.
35k for this car low mileage on the used market. If I had that money it's a no brainer
Who agrees that japan also needs a sports sedan
They have the evo which corners faster than many supercars but its not really being made
Syed shahroz Ali Jafri EVOs haven't been made since like 2011-2012 lol. And they still have the STIs, but most cars coming out of Japan arent going to be crazy fast bc they've kinda moved on from the sport sedan world. Let alone sports cars to begin with.
lexus still has like a gsf or something
Andreas Põldvee yeah sti and infinti q50 red sport that's it and yeah lexus
Yeah mee toooooo!
You guys remember the IS-F?
I love your vids Parker. Love your content.
Alfa is born for build amazing Car... Bmw for plane engines.
Doug, you know you already uploaded a video about the Giulia a while ago, right?
Kostas : I own one of the first to be sold in Germany. I have been waiting for it since i`ve read about its coming and changed my previous Maserati Ghibli for it. No regret whatsoever! I´ve also owned lots of BMWs, including an M 635 Csi and a V8 535 i. The giulia comes from another universe.
Its got much more character. The interior plastics could be a bit better, but noone buys a performance car for its plastics or for the size of its back camera. I would like to point out its fuel cosumption : 12.8 Lt /100 Km is outstanding from a 505 BHP car.
Notification squadd !!! gimme a heart ily !!
I own a Guilia q4 it’s absolutely amazing. The only thing I’d recommend Alfa changing about the Quadrifoglio is more interior options and the ability to have a panoramic sun roof, instead of just the carbon fiber roof.
It looks like an owl
I say praying mantis
polarweis 😂
What kind of owls have you been seeing
zander i dont know. I'm high.
lol explains a lot
The Giulia is seriously underrated. One of the hidden gems of the automotive world
Such an amazing car! I might grab one for my channel.
You can borrow mine.
From experience, I can say the carbon seats are a must-have
You should try reviewing the kit car called the Vaydor g35. I know it is a kit car but I think it would make a good review.
vjrobinson 100% agreed
Which Mic do you use during your reviews?
Today is my birthday and this is one of my dream car ! Thank you parker
That quadrifogli story gets me every time...
I'm actually debating on getting an m3 but after seeing this video I feel a bit of competition, what would you guys suggest me?
Flober the 3 series is about to be replaced within the year
Flober! I've got only one thing to say to you: "You can't be a real petrol head until you've ownen an Alfa!" There is a reason behind this Clarkson statement. And the dude knows what he is talking about.
Thanks I might actually get it
It is but nowadays seeing an Alfa that looks sporty is kind of unique in Ireland
Alfa has a lot of electronic problems,also the maintance will cost a lot. I recommend an m3
Love this car but disagree with you on the paddles they look much cheaper than the rest of the car and look out of place on a sedan, they look much better on a 4c
The m3 is not competing with a quadrioformagio but an m5. But m3 sound like me on the toilet with diaherra.
ShayONLINE you need to check that out with a doctor or something
Why would a brand compete with itself??
You're objectively wrong. The M3 and Quad are direct competitors in price, power, performance, and size.
What Aram said, they're totally same class in all aspects.
You can say shit all day , you can buy a v10 e60 that would smoke this and does almost 30mph over this car can 15 years ago that's what you call m POWER then new m5 does 60 in 3.1 a full second faster then that alfa
Dude i don't know what you've changed in you reviewing style but i'm loving it, amazing review, it felt extremely spontaneous and involving. Keep it up!
Finally back to old shape after the bad quality of the last two reviews.
Both my doctors have this but they paid 50k instead of 80k but we live in west tx
Hi Parker
I would defenetly take the alfa avond the m3 or a c63. I loveeee the alfa its so Nice!!!
“Like three points of a 4 leaf clover”
Why not a normal three leaf clover????😂
(Prob coz quadrofoglio)
four leafs means Luck
Quadrifoglio is clover in Italian, and quad- means 4 if it had 3 it would be a tri foglio. 👍
Luca Mirti ah, didnt get that, but tru that to
Luca Mirti I think foglio is leaf-ed (if it makes sense) so quadrifoglio would be four-leafed
It's because, a long time ago an alfa driver put a "quadrifoglio" on his car because it was supposed to be a Lucky charm, and it did its job, because the driver won his first race, and still now the quadrifoglio means victory in the alfa world
Wheels are too small, but otherwise, it’s nice.
E92 is KING
When I heard 500 hp I said "HOLY SHIT"
up next, "5 things i hate about the Giulia Quadrifoglio"
That car sounds so good!
Everyone always makes fun of the M3's noise and praises the Alfa, but the two cars sound very similar. In a blind test it's honestly hard to discern the two from each other...
No they do not sound alike. Watch the Motortrend head to head.
I love Alfas. They make the most beautiful cars in the world (Tipo 33 Stradale, TZ coupe, 8c, 4c...). But this.....looks like a Pontiac Grand Am and for that reason, I’m out.
Come to South Africa
Kyle Griffiths
me to😁😁
CAPE TOWN! WOOOOP
Mpumalanga
Kyle Griffiths I’ve always wanted to get carjacked and have no water.
Lol. Think The Alfa Uses more water than the average capetonian at the moment. haha
Gotta love an Alfa!
Still would rather have the M3 but love the car
Because you like unreliable, numb steering , slow German cars !!!!
Enjoy looking at my Alfa's diffuser !!! FORZA ALFA BABY !!!!
Same here
Aito...you saying you'd rather have the Alfa right dawg ?
Same
need it in red and with the clover leaf wheels but love the car :-)
Parker, I don't understand you. Giulia and F80 M3 sound basiclly the same, and then you say Giulia "produces much better noise." Fun fact, back in 2016 you said M3 CP sounds awesome.
Marcel Lukačić
He also hadn't reviewed the giulia yet
StillNotTellingYouMyName Dude, the video is about Giulia, so that's a review. But, yeah, he should think twice what he wants to say.
The M2/3/4 are full of fake sound, aswell in interior as exterior! You can say what you want, but when those M’s fire up, its all fake you hear
Michael_YT you funny guy!
Michael_YT then you really dont know “your” cars dude... active sound generators all over! In the speakers and in the exhaust, look it up, wise man!
Awesome review! I've been waiting for you to drive the Alfa Gulia QV and hear what you had to say about it. I love my Alfa and I love your videos! Keep doing what you're doing!
Over a m3? Hell no
Niko Moin Seriously, almost every review I've watched fancies this over an M3. Especially a regular M3.
You don't see these often on the road, but they turn my head every time. Also I own one, so it's nice to see more people buying this car.
Review a Lexus LFA
Agreed, best sounding car in the world
A Winx-like sedan that could spank the German trident sports saloons!!
FIRST
He posts noon PST every day
Mr.Whalo says the kid who plays Minecraft
I love the Giulia but this thing needed a twin turbo v8. Not for speed because this car is fast but imagine the downshifts and aftermarket exhaust sounds 😭 I feel like I could've forged this car to be way more insane
As someone who works at an alfa dealership, do not buy these they are very unreliable and are in the shop constantly, they are fast af though
This is the video that finally made me subscribe ! Alfas really do have something to them and reviewers don't ordeneraly experience it usually due to not having enough time with the cars.
I’ll have one in 5 years for 25k
Garner Bateman probably less. These cars are going to be nightmares to repair
You belive that ? AHaHHAHAHAH you guys should buy one and see that in reality they are good quality and dont cost that much. Not Giulias. 156 159 166 brera 147 GTV 155 all are good. But if you live in the states... well then you dont even know these cars. I have a 156 and its a classic V6 so not only does it sound good but works perfectly.
This car cost same price as my M3, this car has more hp than my M3 but doing almost the same time as 0~60(3.9s on M3). Also you should check out the maintenance fee on 30k miles for Alfa, it cost $2k. And I have just done my 30k service with changing 2 front rotors and pad, cost me $0. Don’t get me wrong, I love this car too BUT I would still choose BMW. Because the over all experience.
no thank you ill keep my M3
This video is most likely paid commercial...
Biased comment?
indelebilis11 lmao no it isn't. He states his true opinion for every vehicle he reviews.
Pzero Killer I'll take the alfa over your m3 any day of the week. It's better in every way
no way dude
I have a c43 , but different price point msrp 63k compared to this vehicle at 77k . But sick looking vehicle . I wonder how there suvs are?
No ways dude that Alfa looks like shit

Where you at?
Plz review SUVs too!!
vibhushan raju no, they are boring
he needs to get his hands on that new lambo SUV
More desirable then the Merc or bmw , love this thing.
This car looks like a GT86 with 4 doors, a muscular body and a Roman nose 😂
JC Almeida Music false
You're high.
Martin Allen lol
only a gt86 looks like a gt86
Keaton Willis nooo it looks like an brz and like a scion
It’s face looks like Megatron from Transformers:The Last Knight
It’s hard to take him serious when he’s so tiny and he’s pushed so close to the steering wheel bec hes a small small man.
The maintenance is BRUTAL, bro. It’ll spend major time with the dealership for the first six months. So no. It isn’t as good as their German rivals. Aesthetically, it’s beautiful and the mechanical potential is incredible but in reality, not so much. Buy it but keep the M3 too so you have something to drive while the Giulia is in the shop.
It might create issues but it's worth it, looks better sounds better it is better in every aspect than a the German rivals, m3 has sort of lost it's charm, E92 was a blast this one isn't that good. I'd take the M2 over an and just upgrade to the power of M3 with a few modifications.
Amazingly, they are just as reliable as the germans. You can do the review with the official statistics yourself
As an owner of a Giulia Quadrifoglio myself, after 10 months and 8,000 miles, I can confirm that it has had 0 maintenance issues, whatsoever
ok then confirm it please.
Both are gonna be in shop anyway
Parker you gotta upgrade your camera setup now.. unappealing to the eye compared to DDE's setup and he uses it for vlogs...
i still find m3 interior more attractive, and outside looks. u can call me fanboy, but would take m3 over this alfa or any other cars of this sort ;) alfa will never even be close to bmw merc or audi. just saying, no hate tho
There was a time when those brands were FAR behind Alfa Romeo both in terms of style and of power. Well, after a couple of decades of oblivion, those times are coming back again. These are just the first nails in the coffin for German pansies. Deal with it buddy ;)
