Finally a car reviewer that cares less about infotainment than car spec itself. ^^ Good Job.
Man I love your reviews because you always give deep details on the car and show it as well rather than giving irrelevant history and specs that people can clearly Google within 5 or 10 seconds.
I never thought this would be the best review I have seen on this car!
Again, thanks for this vid! One of the few videos on TH-cam that goes into detail regarding the interior buttons and other interior details on the car.
Definitely the best review I've seen of this car so far. First one that actually talks about the daily usability of it rather than just how it is to drive.
though how it drives - is the main reason you buy an Alfa.
A very good review, detailed and decent, not like those “famous” you tubers, sometimes are biased.
Last Friday I get mine... I'm super happy! Love the Giulia, she is such a great and beautiful car (with a soul)
How has it been 5 years later?
Best review of giulia ive seen so far
Planning on trading my 2010 Audi S4 Prestige in for this. I could get the quadrifogilo, but I want to take a break from high performance cars for the next 5 years and my bank account could not agree more.
Crazy I am seeing this - selling the same s4 tomorrow to hope and pickup roughly this same Alfa Friday. I hope I’m making the right decision
Wow. Loved how you took the time and went into detail on the inferior. Thank you. This might be my favorite Giulia review out there.
I just bought one like this. I can't wait to drive it!
Great Review! I would definitely purchase this over a 3 series.
The four cylinder does not deactivate two cylinders in advanced efficiency mode - only the QV does. Also, the lights don't "pivot" left and right - there are additional lights that active when turning left and right.
Great review of this car (I've seen a few lol). Good focus on infotainment and other interior details without getting too lost in the drive experience (which i very good BTW)
what a great looking car, I just hope they are reliable and the dealership stick around
I am buying a used Alfa Giulia TI. Should have it in the next few days. I'm proud to be part of the club. Great review!!
How is it after 2 years?
No doubt,
ALFA Giulia is far better than any 3 series,
will defenetly buy one!!
Me too. If i ever have money.
@@mr.2cents.846 hallo! At last i bought one and i can tell you it's the best choice i could have done!!
@@lory7211 i just came here but i’m really glad to hear that. happy for you man
@@lory7211 nice!! Enjoy
@@lory7211 haa congrats, how do u like it?
Will buy one this Saturday!
Yo idk of you'll see this since it's been 4 yes but I'm 16 and would love to know how it's going? I have been wanting one for awhile and have almost worked enough to get it
I'm Giulia owner since Septemebr 2016.. wonderfull auto
How is it holding up? Considering purchasing one myself
What are the maintenance cost looking like?
@@nando936 VERY GOOD. now 50k km without any issue... really cheap as maintenance , Great traction, driveability and fuel economy.
@@devineyoufine very cheap.... 1 year for the different filters ( air, conditioning system, fuel) about 80 euro and 30k km for the engine oil change and all the filter about 250 euro
@@claudiodei8917 what about now?
excellent explanations!! Great color, awesome vehicle and with a soul! La meccanica delle emozione!

THE PAINT IS ASTONISHING
Great job bro!
How did I watch this whole video and not realize it was my favorite car reviewer!!!
This is 100% spec I am going to order!
bellissima macchina , bellissimo colore, bellissimi interni, complimenti!
Excellent Review!!!👍🏾
Just picked up mine. Thanks for teaching me about my own vehicle!
Agree. I have had mine for about a week, and haven't had time to learn all the intricacies nor poor over the manual. Looking forward to Sunday and spending some time learning. Forrest, thanks.
jamie t I’m car shopping right now, and this is on my short list. What’s your feedback on the Giulia now that you’ve had it for a while?
Deff gona save up for this!!
Very good detailed review. Question 1) how was the head room in the back seat? 2) what are those “sensors” for in the front grill? 3) finally how was the “sound system”? Thx!
Nice review!
At around the 13 minute mark you implied that dynamic mode stiffened the dampers. But then what's the sports suspension symbol for?
Gorgeous car. Definitely love the black.
Great review I was wondering if a spare would fix if I want to buy one
The Alfa Romeo Giulia and Stelvio are the best cars of 2016/17
no, tesla model 3
@@Arrbee2016 😂😂😂
Looks phenomenal in black, that paint finish is exceptional. Bought the Vesuvio grey as thought would be easier to maintain than the black, which it will, but that black paint with the dark alloys gives it a mean look - like a bat mobile on a budget!
HI, I driven Alfa Giulia, feeling like BMW 3 series, similar luxurious quality, very quiet inside, comfortable, more space than in 3 series, it's a really good, normal car, as good as Germans
The factor that the ALFA GULIA has such a stunning look & perform so well on the roads... I'll BUY it anytime over the BMW 😉
Smart man.
That effecient mode poped out out twice in infotainment system, is it normal?
Beautiful car. The opening on the front doors seem small though!
Are the windows factory tint on that car or did the dealer throw a tint on them?
I would get one if the resale value would be better ...I know we are not certain what will exactly be like ,but it is highly expected that the resale value will be pretty low 😣
what to do with rusty calipers any and all suggestions welcomed ( 2017 Q4 with 77K kms )
"Really cool.. vents" lol
its beautiful
I just changed my dream car...
how does it do software updates or map updates? does it have to connect to a smartphone hotspot?
updates from usb thumb drive. usually done at dealership.
I've never even heard of these, until now. I will say it looks pretty sweet! I'm guessing repairs are probably equal to a BMW?

Nobody knows yet. It's still brand new. We all know the history of them but we'll have to wait
9 guys are trying to overtake Giulia at Nurburgring circuit
It needs a bit more Hp. Preferably, it should have around 300. I'm hesitant about the reliability of a 4 cylinder engine with a turbo. I'd much rather have a naturally aspirated V6.
ALFA ROMEO ❤️
I hope you didn't rev it cold! Great tour of the car, though!
No, he didn't, it was fully warmed up.
Would it be a problem to buy a used 2017 Giulia Ti under 30,000 miles ?
How so? I bought a used 2017 Giulia TI with 20K miles a month ago and I love it. No issues so far, but obviously I've barely had it. From what I've heard from other owners, they are pretty reliable and also relatively cheap to service/repair. I heard some figures of about 30% cheaper than Audi/BMW/Merc. Fantastic car and 2017 models are still under the 4 year/ 50,000 mile warranty. Let me know if you have any questions. I would definitely recommend it though, cheaper than a new honda civic or Toyota corolla are long as you get it used.
I purchased a 2017 with 22k and I'm in love. Performance wise it's more responsive than thre germans in the same bracket and looks wise it's no comparison since it's hands down beautiful. Maintenance is super easy.
This is no review, just a description. But yes, Giulia is the best sedan for now
Yes it better! That's like asking is a Steak Burger better that a hamburger! Do your research, it's certainly more prestigious. Alfa Romeos are the entry to true exotics for true enthusiasts. Exotic by brand not horsepower...
Idiots will be idiots. Especially when you’re on the internet
Whats the difference between base model and the TI
LikeZoinks Scoobs more refined interior and engine more 🐎 power and upgrades exterior
How’s the reliability?
Why am I even watching reviews? I already bought one...
It needs a manual trans option
Manual transmissions are obsolete now brother.
There's a lot to like about this car. However, the Giulia leases are pretty horrible right now. Combine that with their limited dealer network and lack of a reliability history I'm going to wait and see. I think Alfa is really missing out on an opportunity to capture a chunk of the market right now. The 3-series is long-in the tooth and won't see a new version for more than a year. They should be launching the Giulia with cracking lease/finance deals.
what do you mean? They are extremely affordable. $350-$400 a month with sports package and other great features. That's less than leasing a BMW or Mercedes in the same class. Better than an overpriced BMW which is boring
Update. I went to the dealer yesterday because I am a few weeks away from purchasing a fully loaded Giulia Ti Sedan. I got a quote for $460 for a $46,000 for a 3 year lease with $3,000 down. Hope this helps anyone!
Very thorough overview, but why this trend in America to speak in the future tense about the present? You aren’t “going to have” nice soft leather or alloy wheels; you “have” nice soft leather and allow wheels. Now. Not in the future at some indeterminate point.
Haha. That's how you're "going to have" IF you decide to get the car. It is funny tho, the way we talk.
the only problem with this car is that it should rev all the way to 7,500rpm
That backup camera screen is tinnnnny!! :(
you buy an Alfa for is engineering and for it's looks .. everything else is secondary.
imagine what we all did without backup cameras in the past? we knew how to drive
Problem is the 340i starts at $49k and a Ti Sport starts at $43,6k, There's no replacement for 2 more cylinders :)
Too bad Alfa didn't go for the niche small/midsize manual sports sedan market leaving Caddy and BMW to fight it out.
Same car, only difference is I have red guts. 😱🤘🏽💯👍🏽
what is a homelink at 21:23
programmable garage door opener built in to the sun visor of car
North American market is over stocked with these; prices have dropped significantly for new 2017 models by as much as 10%-to 20% they are going nowhere fast - lack of After sales service and require many visits to the dealership
53 miles on the Alfa 😏 flex bro flex
the only thing i care about is how it drives and looks. can't decide on the color.
RED
alf
Yes better then BMW.
Alfa Romeo.
no it does not have a dual clutch
.. and many find it - overall, better ..
He contrasted it vs dual clutch
Funny when ppl talk about the thunk of a door.. like its a door it doesnt express quality in any sense
not really - Jo are you presently owning and driving an Alfa - if so what does your screen tell you about oil chg intervals - mine until today showed from 0-16,000 kms or 10,000 miles as I live in Ontario Canada, just came from my dealership and lo and behold the manual according to the dealership says 6,500 kms or 3,600 miles on synthetic - are you kidding me and best of all the fact that I followed my infotainment screen at 16,000 kms., I could have voided the warranty. Now they changed the oil, I got 8 free oil changes from the original dealership and you would think that this is transferable to any ALFA dealership in North America - well think gain it is not. After they change the oil they had to reset when the next oil change should take place - guess what it defaulted to 16,000 kms and not as the manual suggests - there is major disconnect for this car and engineering - the service persona had to call Italy as he did not know how to reset the next oil change schedule OMG what is wrong with this company they are so effed up - Buyer beware,Buyer beware,Buyer beware,Buyer beware
Reading a lot of these comments, I'm starting to understand how Americans managed to send Trump to the WH. Utter lack of taste and understanding of pretty much anything...
It's slow
Arnold Kevorkov
Have you driven one? Mid range acceleration (highway, backroads) is incredible
Nice video man! Awful sounding car though.
Disagree, I think it sounds pretty good for a turbo-4
I can run faster
I am not impressed by the 3 Series anyway. I think the Giulia beats it all day long. However, the Audi A4 or S4 is dramatically better than this Giulia in handling, ergonimics, quality (looks too to my eye but that is subjective) and many other metrics.
Audi better in handling? i hope you accidentally said that :D fwd audi, and...audi. lol
Yeah. I wouldn't mind getting to 60 in 3.4 seconds in a TTRS or the like, even in snow or ice.
Digiphex Electronics you may say that audi is better in terms of quality and technology but for the rest alfa giulia rules🔥
Alfa is one of the best handling cars on the planet. Audi seldom [if ever] gets this bit right ..
Youre confusing handling with grip, audi's have grip. Handling, no. Not to mention theyre so disconnected from the road, but so are the newest 3 series so go alfa
Italians and cars...
Bmw 3 series is still crying at Nurburgring.
Are u really comparing an alfa romeo against the BMW 3 series?
Italians and cars never worked out..
lol. Ferrari is the most influential car brand in the world (source: Forbes)
And about Alfa Romeo: today, the platform Giulia and Stelvio are based on (chassis, weight, weight's distribution front/rear 50:50, steering wheel, suspensions, engines), is the best in the world in its segment. It's at least 1 years that all the world specialised press has pointed it out. Only to german cars-fan boys that's not clear yet.
Where's the BMW M3 at Nurburgring? Oh yes, it has to come yet...I go to drink something while I'm waiting. Come with me?
The appearance of maserati is decent, Ferrari's are exotic cars but overrated it also has rearaxle and aerodynamic problems, Sebastian Vettel did a nice job in Fiorano tho. And then alfa romeo... I've seen enough Giulia's stuck with problems like: a frozen infotainment system, jammed parking sensors, more other different infotainment system failings, dismounted camshafts etc. And the Giulia is a critically important car for Alfa Romeo, one that aims to establish the brand, and for this quick development they did a decent job. But as long as I'm told alfa romeo has and still is suffering from a reputation for poor quality for decades now. And I'm not just a germany cars-fan boy, I'm not really a fan of the Volkswagen motorization, exept for BMW, I'm more a fancier of the JDM engines tbh.
Johan Rinia you're drunk man
You realize every car brand learned a thing or two from Italian cars especially Alfa and Ferrari. Alfa is a special car brand that BMW strives to be.
Italian cars: when genius turns up, genius wins.
pure chrysler!
Hardly. Suggest you think/research. This is new from the ground up.
Probably gonna be my next Baby ❤️ Giulia 👌
