Me too. I briefly saw one at an intersection recently and was underwhelmed. If it weren’t for the grille I probably wouldn’t have noticed. Granted, I was in an area where luxury and luxury performance cars are the norm.

Y’know, my first instinct is to say that “don’t buy one” is an unnecessarily harsh overreaction. But you know what? No. No it isn’t. I’m sick of this whole “no worries; it’s still under warranty” mentality. Build it right the first time around, damn it. Is that too much to ask? And don’t say “ah, we’ll just issue a recall to pick up where the factory left off”. It’s ridiculous, it really is.

Oh look, an auto reviewer who isn’t ignoring the shittiness because it drives well and sounds pretty.

Holy shit, Jalopnik could reclaim some serious credibility as a review outlet and not just be shitpost kings.

(this is said with a degree of jest, I’m aware jalopnik never aimed to be a straight laced review outlet)

I really hope they write a scathing review about it. I really do.

His expectations don’t seem to match Italian ownership reality

Maybe they will work the issues out and it will be possible to get a 2025 model which will get to at least 10k before the CEL comes on.

Welp..this has gone exactly as I suspected.

Alfa is the same as it ever was. Shame though, it was a refreshing newcomer in a sea of bland and over styled.

People should read things before they sign them. It’s right there in the fine print, should you bother. The car is actually free with purchase.

What you’re buying is the adventure.
