Sergio’s probably still planning for that GM merger and for Ferrari to win the 2016 F1 championship.

I can’t do it anymore! I cant deal with this. What is Dodge building? How about Chrysler? How about Jeep? What about Maserati? Want the answer? The exact same cars over the next five years!!!

Yeah but the 500X is good, except for all the black plastic which has already been scratched up.

So I’m seeing three S/CUVs. The one slated for 2016 I’m assuming is the Stelvio, which looks absolutely hideous from what little we’ve seen of it, kind of like a low-rent Maserati Levante. Does anyone know what “specialty” means?

yep, Ram and Jeep are bankrolling the whole fiasco, and he’ll ride them into the ground to try to resurrect a brand nobody cares about.

No, I just wanted to see if I could fit 90% of my vocabulary into one post. Success!

I am upset because I’m not seeing ANY long term planning coming from FCA. Everything is reactionary and I’m getting seriously worried Sergio is setting everything up so that he can take the money and run! He holds like 5 CEO titles and like 40 positions across the company plus way too much control and stock. He’s preparing to liquidate!

It means they haven’t even decided on if they are replacing the 4C, building a 6c or 8c, a Giulia Coupe, a hybrid sportscar...they don’t know! It’s simply filler and to cover up the fact that they don’t have a plan!

I hate that Alfa is building SUVs and Crossovers but at the same time I understand that they need more financial stability. If it means they can make more cars like the 4C and Giulia then it's acceptable. I'm even hoping that maybe they'll be...okay. Or as good as a CUV can be by virtue of being an Alfa Romeo. All I really want is a new GTV...

Not meant to be a put-down, it’s just that enthusiasts who are interested in Alfa are a small portion of the market. “Nobody cares” is a moderate bit of hyperbole.

not taken as one. It’s true what your saying I just like the phrasing a lot. it really does pretty much sum up all my life activities, interests, opinions, ect. I am always part of the statistically insignificant number of people for everything. haha

In the end I hope something works out though, Alfa Romeo is one of my favourite brands out there after all.

And, at the moment, Fiat Chrysler can afford everything up to year end 2016. Everything after that is pretty much wishful thinking. I believe Marchionne is hoping to be retired someplace before people start figuring that out. That vague “2017 to 2020" bit leaves some wiggle room, but by 2021, Elkann is bound to be asking some questions.

Sergio is a disease. He is to FCA as Elop was to Nokia. The board should kill him now while they still can.

Is this like that time Danny Bahr at Lotus announced a million new models, but never had any intention of building them and tried to drive Lotus into the ground?
