But I could be mistaken.

Let me adjust your statement. There is only actually 2 car lines, as you will never find a 4C. You can get the Giulia sedan or the Stelvio SUV, which look exactly like any other sedan or SUV on the road. Prices starting in the 40s. Or, if you want a decent engine and 4 wheel drive, you can get the exact same cars with those items for twice as much. What a line up! Never been so unexcited in my life. And you just KNOW they are a maintenance nightmare waiting to happen. At this rate, I give Alfa about 5 more years in this country before they pull out again.
@dommy114 2 жыл бұрын
@@ToyKingWonder To be fair, the 4C was discontinued, and the Giulia and Stelvio are practically the same vehicle. May as well say they make 1 car. Don't agree with you about the looks. The only QV with AWD is the Stelvio, not the Giulia QV. You are stuck with the 2.0 if you want AWD in a Giulia. No Alfa Romeo offers 4-wheel drive. For the money, the Giulia and Stelvio are perfectly competitive against the German options. Having owned both, I prefer the Alfa. Absolutely 0 issues, which I can't say for my BMWs or Jaguar. The point is, Alfa is horrendously mismanaged. The Giulia is, in essence, a Ferrari design, which has been adapted to an SUV platform and watered down with a 2.0 turbo.

Listening to JLG for the past 10 years has changed that! We need more folks like Jay in this world. I love his "car guy" attitude but what really impresses me is that he is a down to earth unpretentious man who could be full of himself but has chosen a more meaningful role in his life after "Tonight". It's no wonder Johnny gave him his dad's car. I am the same age as Jay and we grew up about 30 miles apart from each other (I don't know nor have ever met him - but wish I had). I do know a lot of people my age that are full of themselves. Can't figure out why they are so impressed with themselves. Keep it up Jay!

We had 2 4C's at our track. Part of the House Track fleet. We installed front camber blocks and stage 2'd the ECU. Other than that, the 4C's remained stock. The Stage 2 tune on the ECU really woke the chassis up. The manual steering would tire you out after a strong 20 min session. And if you over drove the car into a corner and lost the rear a bit, and caused it to snap back on you, the steering wheel would whip spin out of your hands.. hurt like hell! One of the cheapest track vehicles in the fleet on consumables. Brakes are FIAT Chrysler, and last an unbelievable amount of track time. The only issue we had with both was from the Blow Off Valve, the rubber bladder in it would rip and leak. Easy cheap fix. Never skipped a beat.. but one of the most painful in terms of how it would leave your body bruised up after 80-100 laps. Unforgiving.
