Is this the sexiest car ever created? Why the fuck isn't /o/ talking about the new Alfa Romeo Giulia more?
>starting at under $40k
>manual transmission
>RWD and AWD options
>theres a fucking 505 HP model available, with dat Italian twin-turbo V6 sound
>went around the Nurbürgring in 7 minutes and 39 seconds
Help guys, I'm in love with this thing

They ditched the manual though.

Under 40K gets you the 2wd 6 cylinder. Probably FWD too. And no leather.

And had multiple mechanical failures immediately after. Alfa, not even once.

RWD/AWD only. 2l turbo with 200bhp and 8 speed auto is most basic petrol option. nothing to be sneezed at. just try to be less assblasted and retarded all the time and embrace the italian automobile.

a 340i with over 320 HP starts at 46k € so I wouldn't call that cheap.

You're acting like v6 and twin turbo chargers are a good thing. Even bmw managed to put a v8 in the m3 for a little while.

>>14684635
The top end model will have a manual available but the base models will be auto only.
>>14684374
Don't know about failures but the Alfa that ran the lap in 7:39 was a stripped, lightened test mule with hand-cut racing slicks that are only track legal.
The biggest issues Alfa is facing now is with the safety, it is failing crash tests badly and they may have to rebuild the suspension which will hurt performance badly.

It's like you can't read.
>>
>>14686268
True, that`s a recent update though. I read the same article 2 weeks ago.
Anyway it doesn`t change the fact that the claimed lap time is too dodgy as the record setting car is a development prototype and there is no proof or video of the lap, just a claim.
well good luck Alfa, I want to see some comparison reviews.

the 4c has been for sale for a while now. actually i remember seeing a couple old alfas from the 80s every once in a while but their super rare here
>>
>>14687395
nothing quite like Italian engineering combined with Slavic quality control and material selection
>>
>>14687531
I think the 4C was the first Alfa to be for sale in the US since the 80s.
The Giulia replaces the 159, which I don't think the US ever got.
>>
>>14687073

Diesel ones.

>>14687396

Let's see, any other car that they aim to compete with does the same and even more HP with 2.0 blocks and some with even a smaller size engine.

Explain me where in a world where most countries tax the cars by engine size will a 2.2 be competitive?

And this is even forfeiting the argument that it's retarded and outdated to use a 2.2 to extract that kind of horsepower.

Now, you take your Alfa muh passion butthurt out of here.

>>14687436

When everyone else is at least 150Kg lighter, yes pigfat.

>>
>>14687856

Sales numbers say otherwise. 1.3jtd are the gross.

>>14687862

No they're not. Furthermore, for the power levels they have, they're a disgrace. If they had power on par with the competition well, meh. Failure rate could be said to be somewhat on the ballpark. Problem is, they've got pretty much the same failure, while with lower power which is worse by itself.

>>14687885

Pretty much all the cars the muh passion turd wants to compete with.

>>14688230

lel you're the one fucked in the head if you're thinking the Alfa is a competitor to any of those brands

btw, the Audi isn't even a competitor to the 3 series or the Merc. A rebadged VW has no pedigree.

Yeah, the M4 is shit. BMW didn't include the thing they made their name on, tuning.

It drives like a (fast) dog, the steering is garbage, the brakes are shit, it sounds awful, it's inexplicably almost 2 tons, and it makes the Camaro look tastefully styled.

When the Camaro is lighter, has better steering, has better brakes, and is better handling than BMW's E30 M3 successor, people at BMW should be fired.
>>
>>14689668
The M4 is 130lbs lighter than the 2016 Camaro
The M4 is praised by its excellent precise steering and reponsiveness as it's better than the competition
The camaro is the ugliest muscle car ever produced
I agree on the sound, the M4 sounds disappointing
The M4 Competition package was released recently and there are no comparison reviews of it yet
And at last:
There is no Camaro, Mustang, Charger or Challenger that can touch the M4 GTS. Sure it costs twice the price of a Camaro but it's still a BMW M4.
