Its generic store brand vanilla too! Not even the good stuff.

A turd is a turd regardless of how nice it is....

Shear folly to think a 3 row SUV will work with a 2yo and twins. Access to every SUV’s 3rd row is a royal PIA. With the 3rd row in use, your cargo space is severely limited.

The Quadrifoglio had a sketchy start with its 500+ hp 6 cyl.  The fours have been pretty reliable.

I came to say similar. I’m Always Looking For Another and have had my eye on the Giulia price.  This is a definite yes even without the carplay which you can actually retrofit now.

European initial reviews of the Alfa were all usually pretty good, but yeah there are no long term reviews of either as far as I know.

I did sit in one about a week ago and fit and finish were good.  But just because it looks good doesn’t mean it’ll hold up...

Being a dyed in the wool Alfisti this pains me to say that the Tonale and its Dodge twin the Hornet have the potential to be nightmare’s with their electric hybrid set up.  The ICE motor doesn’t scare me so much as the interface with the electric and drivetrain.  I’m using the Hornet pic as a protest to actually

too true

Love the idea that they got trapped by their own size and thus got snagged.  If you’ve ever seen the comments on the reels of these take over’s you see that many think they’re “just livin’ their best lives” ... F everyone else trying to get where they want to go... YOLO right???

I think the whole point of a lot of these “events” is to take over the street ie: be lawless so finding a place that would actually allow it defeats their purpose and likely a great deal of the thrill.

They drive beautifully! Would have been amazing to drive one on their home turf!

Oh I didn’t do the math!! I’d DD an 82-83 GTV6 then since it’ll have AC too.  Whether it works is a total crap shoot but the transaxle drive was even better in crap weather than my GTV’s

I tried to comment when this came out but Kinja was not being kind. I’d DD an Alfa Romeo GTV. Hell, I did it for nearly 2yrs back in 1999-2001. Go ahed and make your Alfa reliability jokes but with a sorted car that is well maintained and driven daily (mine checked all three boxes) I really didn’t worry about it. Its

zactly!

While this latest BS from F1 is not at the level of the Machiavelian Jean Marie Balestre years (look it up kids) it still a whole lot of fuckery.  You have two teams perpetually at the back of the grid this year and they say Andretti won’t be competitive??  At least he’d give them a run for the money as he develops

they do regularly race each other for 19th/18th position...

very true!  I’ve taught my 17yo to drive her car in this manner, assume everyone is going to do something that will kill you.  She’s gotten that mentality down now.

Mine are all from 40+ yrs of driving:

My daughter traveled in a McLaren stroller for a while... speedy but when overloaded on the handles, prone to tipping... No Newey influence apparently...
