This is "mansplaining" isn't it?

This is gonna be a bit of a ride, so strap in.

I think it was the open bucket inside that did it.

People have been putting VW 1.8T engines in these.

Nice price! Just to see the look on the faces at a snobby Porsche Club meeting when you drive up in this thing and act like an iconoclast.

What not to do when your fuel pump craps out:

I call your bluff by raising you one human fuel pump.

 Given the similar character lines on the side of all of these, I wonder if the material came from a prefab steel building from a military base.

“Company transporting exotic cars” is often just one guy with a truck and trailer. That’s what you get from UShip.

Is there anything that you DON’T bitch about?

“Italian build quality” gave me pause at first, but BMW, Mercedes, VAG, Ford, GM etc. are also terrible.

Really, most of the problems reported were for the first-year models and were mostly fixed with software updates. I wouldn’t hesitate to buy a Giulia at this point; in fact I’ve been looking at off-lease TI models

Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. Because of that Car and Driver hit piece, these can be had for a great price slightly used; or lease a new one.

No Dice. In the ‘90s I was looking for a cool daily driver and happened upon a Fox GT convertible with only 6000 miles on it for about 10 grand. It looked great of course, but it was loud, especially with the wind roar around the top; and flimsy with cowl shake that would rattle your teeth.
