Ah, yes, the badge...
In my books Alfa does not outperform (strong word) in any way the BMW. First of all, I will never trade the material quality and fit and finish for very little more performance. If I want an outperforming vehicle, Alfa is not in my books.
No, not a badge thing. I owned many cars, and still own different brand, I just want to see that level of quality I am thirsty for. Alfa really disappoints in every aspect when we are talking about materials and execution.
BMW is the one that defined the sporty luxury vehicle. Alfa was the worse car I have ever owned. I realized why in Europe we call the Italian cars "Gigolo: they are cute but they always disappoint."
BMW is not flawless, but Alfa can't hold a candle to BMW in terms of execution and reliability.
