This is supposedly the upcoming Giulia QV which is said will have a 3l twin turbo v6 of around 500hp.

This car in particular is their "American strategy" vehicle to take on cars like BMW 3 series.

Wow looks awesome.

Is it wrong that my first thought when clicking on this thread is that it involved an oil leak?

Yet another awesome car in the looooooong list of awesome cars I will probably never own. Maybe if I'm good I'll be able to hear one accelerate by one day.

Alfas have been coming to north America Inna couple years since 1995, it will be interesting to see if a normal Alfa car ever ends up being sold here.

Looks like a mildly refreshed Dart, but in a ohh so good way....so the odds of a 500hp V6 is, IMHO, slim

Well it's supposed to be the upcoming Ferrari twin turbo V6 which is said to make that power and it's for the QV car that's meant to take on BMW M3 and cars like that so it wouldn't surprise me at all.

If they make 2 series competitor I might consider one. Not anything at that high of a trim though.

What I would really like to see is a small sports car that is relatively affordable. Like a new GTV6.

Well this QV might be 60,000 at debut but in like 3 years will be like 20 if Maserati is any indication lol

Great looking car, way out of my price range and cost for maintenance tolerance level, but look forward to seeing them on the road.

This seems like a car that would be akin to the GTA. Which was a very expensive upgrade to an already expensive car.

It will be interesting to see what direction Alfa Romeo is actually going, but getting back to be ACTUALLY head to head against BMW is a good start. That's where they were in the era my cars were made. But got distracted in the 70's, which lead to a total abandonment in the 90's of that path.

(then again, Alfa Romeo used to be what Ferrari is these days...)

Edit- maybe call it the Giulia TI Super.
