Comments like this are so overblown and bullshit.

How many Alfa's have you owned since they relaunched here in the U.S. in 2018? How many have you driven? How many Alfa's have you had in the "shop"? People that post up shit like this shouldn't have a keyboard to type on.

The Alfa line up eats anything BMW puts against it... The suspension, engine, driving feel and points of engagement are incredib Jile. Sure...the new 3 series has a refreshed interior and it looks much better than the previous F30...but that's about all it has going for it against anything Alfa.

These fanboy comments with zeruo validity are just pointless.
Bad day today lol? All the poster said was when he hears the word Alfa he hears unreliable. I agree with him. Has nothing to do with having driven one or not (lately) nor anything to do with being a fanboy.

It's a perception thing and their marketing team needs to work on it. In my opinion naturally.

Oh, and I assume from your post you drive one or drive them quite frequently....
Read the other reviews on Alpha's. I want to like them - and
generally cheer for an underdog, but C&D's long term test of the Giulia resulted in a dozen service calls - and their car died when being road tested. Yes, they have serious reliability issues. Very attractive, but like that girl in high school, more dangerous than attractive.
