If $650 is the magic number I'd have a hard time arguing against an S4 it seems. Yes we can all argue all day long about this car or that car is better, but when the rubber meets the road and you say best car for $X a lot of that noise goes out the window.

Keep in mind, the people that want to own these cars also want the exclusivity that comes with it. They're paying out the wazoo for them, but that is something that they're fine with. They have the latest and greatest. Alfa also wants to try and keep the car exclusive and milk it as long as they can for profit margins. Residual and MF will be bad for awhile on an Alfa.
Honestly, I don't see a reason why someone wouldn't get an S4/S5 over the competition right now. If you're budget is mid 600's, it doesn't get any better than the S4/S5.
