This is not an Alfa like any other, not even the 4C. This is a Ferrari family sedan. If reliability and quality was my concern, Lexus would be the car.

BMW needs to step up their acoustics game...and I don't mean with active sound.

Wow. I am completely disappointed, this looks like any other sedan out there. Looks more of a facelift of this:





What the hell were they thinking? It already looks outdated.

I think it looks awesome. And the suspension components sound like it could ride as good as it looks.

Looks great and finally Alfa is back with an rwd sedan ,seems to be some good stuff under its skinn too.
The trunk spoiler is similar looking to the M4 M Performance spoiler.

I like the Alfa 4C too ,interesting to see what more Alfa comes up with.

Looks better than a 3er, S4, C63, Jag XE, Infiniti whatever... It's got some gorgeous lines. Look at the way the crease in the door panel plays with the hood creases. Yup. And the rear end looks amazing. Understand that this is a sedan folks!

On top of that, I like it. The interior looks great. It'll undoubtedly make an AWESOME sound. And a manual gearbox? HUGE thumbs up.

Wonder how far down the street you can get before it breaks though.

Considering what they did with 4C and 8C this design is conservative, not ugly but not the best. The front and rear lights are double the size and ruin the overall design/flow. They should have gone a bit more emotional with the exterior. It sounds phenomenal!

M3 vs Giulia vs ATS-V vs C AMG vs RS4 should be interesting. Let the good times roll!!

Wow, what a beautiful car. I will be taking a serious look at one of these, i've always had a place in my heart for Alfas. For the longest time they were the forbidden fruit, but now we're finally getting them!

Would so buy this car!

Alfa has always been sexy, if the interior is quality enough and the reliability is even half good, then this car just made my next car short list.

However, if Porsche ever drops a Panamara Jr or Pajun, that will be my ride for sure.

It doesn't really look like an Alfa. But it looks pretty good. Love the wheels and the engine will probably blow away the M4 performance wise.

If Porsche ever decides to enter this segment, it is game over.

If reliability is of concern, why do you drive BMW instead of Lexus?


Both of my Alfa Romeo never had any issues and never spent time being fixed.

Alfa Romeo unreliability is a myth.
