This is The Opposite Locker where we try and sort out the cool from the square. This is a discussion system detailing how cool a car is, not how fast, fun, or frivolous it may be, but how well it looks in the cat's pajamas. But, you may be asking, !!!error: Indecipherable SUB-paragraph formatting!!!

It's red, it's Italian, it's and Alfa Romeo... or is it? Some would call the current iteration of the brand known as Alfa Romeo just a rebadged Fiat. The question then becomes, do these new Alfa's reliability improvements make them cool? Were the old Alfa Romeos, that just break down all the time, even cool in the first place? And does this new generation of Alfa Romeos keep the characteristics of the old cars that brought us to love the Italian brand?

I'd say cool, because it's something a bit more than just a small hatchback. But it doesn't seem like you're trying a bit hard, like the Opel Adam or Citroen DS3 sport versions.
And Italians are always cool.

Aside from literally announcing that its just another small hatch (MeToo) its pretty good looking.

I don't think you got my point.
Most of the cars you posted were not designed to compete within an existing segment. They
became
trendy. The MiTo, among others, was designed from the beginning to be a trend, or part of one.
