I've owned many Ferraris, AMG, BMW M, and even now own two GT3s. My 2018 Quadrifoglio is my favorite car ever....period. It always brings me joy just driving it to work and hasn't gotten old. And it's dependable. A simple test drive doesn't explain it.
I have an ‘18 Rosso Comp QV as well, but better than a GT3? Never driven one, but heard those are the best out there
You know someone is lying when they mention 'Reliable' and 'Alfa Romeo' in the same sentence.
@Stefano Fezza they aren't. Alfas are good cars and can be reliable with proper maintenance, just as every other car out there. Phllip over here is just repeating something he saw on the internet. I have a 159 aswell, 270k km, literally zero problems.
@@phillip3330 If it hasn't broken down for them, are they not allowed to call it reliable?
Is there difference between 18 and 2021 qv?
This Brand Of Car Is Really Underestimated By Everyone!!!
It really is... just everyone gives it shit because the brand isn't really the most reliable thing out there... I guess or thats what I keep hearing... never drove one so idk
@UCOLP3l8_gU46E_gk1gGqSZQ I had one and it was a piece of shit. Always having problems but when it did run, it truly was amazing.
I love Alfas!
@@brendanfogel4573 if they are a piece of junk, why are they so expensive? 🙂
@@Mostopinionatedmanofalltime I literally just said I had one and it would break down like no other. It’s a beautiful car tho
THESE THINGS SOUND AMAZING
that's a new color for Alfa and that is insane. Love this car, thank you for sharing.

I loved this beautifully colored car. I fell in love more. 😮😍
One of the better sport sedans out there imo. Such a beautiful car
Owning one of these under warranty would be perfect.
@@zaneprice6560 couldn’t agree more
Absolutely lovely vehicle this color suits soo well on this one
Gosh, this sounds so sweet. Although the thing I don't like about new cars is a lack of manual transmission, but hey, this one sounds amazing even with automatic. Awesome, thanks for recording this POV. Only, please, do something with your automatic recording leveling, set it to slightly lower. I don't want to rant, just posting feedback. I love your videos and the cars you drive.
You can buy it with 6 speed manual i think :D
@@voja5536 yes there are 200 examples with the manual gearbox
I was just thinking about this car! Can’t believe it makes 500 horsepower, very cool!
One of my favorite steering wheels
The roads around crystal lake and road America are so nice. I take me e92 m3 there most weekends during the summer.
Wow that color is insane
Lovely color. Gorgeous car.
Was not expecting the car to be an amber color when you walked out that door!
This dude is so extra with each gear change lol
Yeessss! come on push the gear ⚙️
that color is incredible
that color is amazing
Middle climate vents remind me of mazda6 from like 2014 ones. The dials for turning them on and hazard light in the middle actually look the same as in mazda. very similar
Great video! I LOVE the Giulia. I wanted to ask about the sound set-up. What equipment do you use?
Eu amo esse carro !! 🇧🇷😎
Perfection
The only Italian car that I would buy.❤️
what a car nice
So you are The Topher guy.
My best car
Good car
My next step is the Quad!
I got one.I love it❤
До 4-х тысяч максимум крутит обороты и переключается на следующую, бензин экономит что ли?
The only thing I miss about Wisconsin are the roads. The roads in the western parts are hidden gems. 55mph on tight twisting roads that would be 35mph anywhere else.
Ha ! You call this right twisting? You should visit us here in Northern California bud .
@@NEPALESE.AMERICAN no I don’t. I said the western parts. Road America is on the flatter eastern portion
@@NEPALESE.AMERICAN I’d gladly move to WI over CA
Hey man, may I know your own car? Which car do you like? This question has been in my head several times
This driver owns a Cayman S, IS 300, 325i, Cobalt SS, and 420 SEL.
@@windingroadmagazine ooh great
How many drivers you are
@@windingroadmagazine Cobalt SS sleeper! #TeamRecall
audi q8 2022 please
Does it have a GPF?
Why does it bounce so much? Is the ride THAT firm?
It is quite a firm ride on Dynamic and race modes , i dont know if there's any difference between the regular Giulia suspension and the Quadrifoglio suspension tho (bcos the non QVs can upgrade to the QV suspension)
You downshift too often in my opinion. You never really let her out
Ye the way he drives is awful
Upshift*
@@AdamPangFireCracker yeah yeah
Why the hell are you shifting between 4 and 5k rpm in dynamic mode ?!
Better drive auto if you are so nervous on the paddles...
Fax
That’s a nice brown car
Great review
Is it more reliable than the 2021 BMW M2?
hell no! I won't say that the M2 is like a camry in terms of reliability, but I will say that overall it appears that the reliability of the M2 is far better than the Alfa. Alfa's are still a joy to drive though.
@@rohansingh494
Huh...... Clear. We'll just continue using our Camry 016..... LoL
It's hard to compare reliability, but my guy at local German mechanic shop run away from these alfa. They are loads of fun to drive though
I worked at Alfa and I'd say the drivetrain was good but the software that runs the show is buggy as hell. The fuel pumps suck too. They have distributed many software updates which improved reliability and drivability, but you have to go to the dealer to get them done. These cars have over a dozen modules, including 2 engine computers (one for each bank because Ferrari) so they're electrically very complicated. I have no experience with the M2, but I'd say it's probably more reliable. Plus you can get the M2 with a manual, even knowing the ZF auto is amazing.
No
Bro hidin a hickey on his hand
I want to consider one of these but in almost every magazine review something breaks on the car or the car literally breaks down. If anyone owns one of these, how has the reliability been?
I own a 2018 QV, and 2018 Giulia TI Sport that my wife drives. NO issues at all. Just regular oil changes. The so-called expert reviews were all using the earlier 2016 models. The more recent reviews simply re-state what the older reviews say without doing any reliability study of the recent models. The 2016 were really new designs and the first year is always a hassle.
Journos take the press car and just full throttle it from its first kilometer. Almost nobody does a proper break in. And since it's not their car, they will trash it all the time. Why wait for the engine to heat up when it's not your car? Especially if you make 10 times more views if the car breaks.
I told the dealership to NOT touch my car until I get there. No prep, no nothing. Take it off the trailer and that's it.
I did the break in for 1500km, then changed the oil and filter. I change the oil every 7500 km.
30k km and one year later, and nothing broke. 2020 year model. I use it as daily, even during winter (temperatures go to -20 deg C over here).
If you're from the American continents, make your dealer check for the battery contacts. They can get corroded from the shipping over the Atlantic.
Am I hearing creaks? ☹️
Misto
👍🏻
wtf are you doing with dna button
I heard this car has reliability issues. Is it true?
No it's not....
Drive that B like u stole it!!
The Giulia Quadrifoglio is still a favorite of mine. However, I'm not a fan of that color. I moreso prefer the Verde Montreál Tri-Coat.
I'd love to see a pov video of the Gulia or Stelvio with with the 2.0 Turbo 4. I don't think you e done a video on one yet.
He has, just watched it yesterday. Might have been on winding road though.
Drove the Giulia 2.0t and the driving experience wasn't all that exciting
noticed weird hum/drone sound while decelerating.
guess it's totaled rotors. Which is sad within 2000miles. But possible, especially if it's a car for reviewers
drea paint😍😍🥰🤩🤩
Practice driving👍
I own a Giulia, and the only thing I see as a downside of this car is that it sits so low, which is excellent at times, but at others, not so much it is effortless to scrape on steep turn in/outs.
Buy an SUV, this car is supposed to be low.
@hellocookie5932 I know that lmao that why I said it's great sometimes and not so much others every guilia I have seen has scraps on the underside of the lip on the front end.
0:03
This supposed to be a spirited driving? A 100 hp car is perfect for this kinda drive.
that's a nice chrysler
What's going on with that BMW shifter?
Who cares? What about the rest of the car?
I'd love one of these but don't want to visit the Alfa dealer every week for them to fix something on it
i’d would this car is so sexy mmmmmmmmmmmm
Dear Americans…learn what a great car is…viva i motori italiani!!!
Are these reliable?
They have mixed reviews, but overall owners seem to love them🤷♂️
doubtful
Ferrari engine,shouldn't be bad
I mean, it is an Italian car. There always needs to be some drama lol
NO
Faster 😬😫
who tf goes into a tunnel and not accelerate it!!!!!!!!
The best of the rest … alfa is not iPad on a 4 wheel ..😉
Everyone loves Alpha. Problem is, no one buys them.
no sabes cambiar de marcha
Im not to say that Alfa's are the most reliable cars but considering the way you drive mate you re going to have problems with engine or tct very soon and it will be your own fault absolutely... but I hope im wrong it's an incredible car please take care of it, you are a lucky man
I daily drive mine in race been months with no problems
Omg its not his, dont u know this is a car reviewing channel??
Don’t be soft. Buy Corolla if you want to drive line grandma.
Strasznie nudna ta jazda...trzeba było depnąć
Looks like the bmw n I’ll stay with the M series 😊👌🏼
BMW is faster also
@@ayyo5971 bmw m3 isnt faster...
Jesus this car is so amazing, but the way you drive is so damn boring
why this drive boring as hell
The inside of the car looks like a Honda Accord
🧢
This dude doesn’t know when to shift.
First
sorry but boring drive. Love that car tho
the drive is so boring ye
I was in love with my Giulia and Alfa Romeo as a brand, however, I will never again buy/recommend another Alfa Romeo in my life. I had the brake by wire system fail on me and it caused me to crash and total the car. They sent someone from Bosch to diagnose the vehicle and in the charts it clearly showed that something malfunctioned (brakes were slammed 2 seconds before the impact at 40 MPH and it took more than 1.5 seconds for the speed to start going down.) Stellantis told me that they were not going to take responsibility for it and that I needed to have my insurance pay for the vehicle. Absolute garbage. I will never recommend this car brand to anyone again! Buy an AUDI, BMW or Mercedes instead.
@Aaron C stop your pathetic cries on every Alfa Romeo video, SPAMMER! If what you claim even happened, there's always 2 sides to every story and you cry because you didn't get what you want (full replacement instead of insurance market value?). You're alive... think of fatalities due to proven engineering shortcomings in any car unfortunately, like Audi TT or Tesla S as examples. Again, if true, you crash a car and blame a system used by other manufacturers and not known to have caused problems to anyone else. GROW UP AND STOP SPAMMING, TROLL.
Sadly, Alfa Romeo is all but dead in America.
Sales have plummeted. they have virtually no dealership network in America, and reliability concerns.
I would love to own one, but just can't risk taking the chance.
The lack of dealership network claim is false. You just don't live in an area with many of them.
I forgot Alfa was a brand
@Chamillionaire I do not know what you are implying. Audi and Porsche and Lamborghini are owned by Volkswagen, Range Rover and Jaguar is owned by Tata Motors, etc. Ownerships is related to who ahs the money
