Imagine spending years pouring your heart and soul into designing and building this car and then Clarkson releases this review.

Probably one of the best edited and filmed segment of top gear ever.

Jeremy Clarkson is one hell of a journalist. He can make you laugh and shed a tear in a 8 minutes span. This man is brilliant.

As a Milanese, this video just fills my heart with joy; Milanese car, filmed in the mountains of Lombardy - a true celebration of not only Italy's car industry, but also Italy itself.

“I love that car. I really do” you know he really means it

This was Top Gear. A show for the enthusiast, not the junky addict for numbers and figures. It was all about the passion that lives between cars and humans. It was so many things, it still makes me sad...

Watching this again at the beginning of 2024, still fills my heart with joy! Goosebumps!!

6 years later and i'm still in love..

This is proper Top Gear. God I want this kind of quality back.

the cinematography in this video is amazing.

I remembering seeing this episode when it aired. It was a masterpiece of sound, videography and editing. The best single segment they ever made. The car is a work of art also.

That Einaudi muaic and jeremy's commentary just hits me in the heart...

The car is great, but the video shots and editing and simply amazing. Hats off to your video production team from a guy who's been tinkering with video for 40 years.

5:26 the moment when Jeremy pull paddle shift and music starts playin. Perfect

"Without heart, we would be mere machines" This video never fails to bring a tear to my eye

This is one of the best top gear car reviews, I've ever watched, the cinematics facing Jeremy on the bonnet is like out of a movie of sorts, I've never seen that before in any other review. This is better than the new top gear, they did it better back then, but now, it's just, not the same, and it never will be again...

Who shot this? They should be making freaking movies. Beautiful execution of a beautiful car!

why do i keep watching this video again and again??

"It's Otis!" the unadulterated joy in Jeremy's voice and on his face is absolutely priceless :D

This is a masterpiece. I never get tired rewatching old top gear episodes

this is oscar material for me.

i tought youtube banned porn

"The 4C, that's the angel Gabriel; but I'm not jealous anymore because this, this is the full baby Jesus."

The way he describes a car, like describing a living thing, Jeremy is just epic.

- What do you do for living ? -I'm designer for Touring in Milano. - Can i kiss your feet ?

This car... Its really hard to explain really... Its like having a crush... You know you wont have it, but you really love everything about it, even though others think its ugly, and all you remember is Disco Volante all the time...

To me, this is one of the best looking cars ever built

That car, those shots, the music and Jeremy's passion for that Alfa; it just doesn't get better than this!

To me this video perfectly demonstrates the profound magic that made me fall in love with Alfa so completely

This is the greatest car review i've ever seen !!!!

This is the Top Gear I fell in love with. The cinematography, the no holds bared review, the history into present presentation and watching Jeremy Clarkson fall in love with a hand made Alpha.

"I love that car. I really do" man I felt that

What?! A tear jerker from TOP GEAR? This car is truly beautiful...

I have seen so many automobile videos, but this , this is something special which I cannot explain. the original top gear is no more. so sad when I feel that. at the ending, the music of Ludovico enaudi, sound of this beautiful car and poetic words of Jeremy. most probably the best car review of the history of mankind,,,............ no words to explain.

I have small tear dropping from my eyes everytime I watch this..the best few minutes of old top gear ever produced...❤️

"It's been like watching Dame Judy Dench reduced to appearing in a regional pantomime." Or in Cats.

When I see an Alfa Romeo go by, I tip my Hat.."Henry Ford"

I agree for you all who says this car is ugly. I do, but thats how almost alfa looks at the first glance. but the more you look at it, the more you'll feel the essence and beauty of this car. then you'll fall in love. you have to have sense of art to see alfa romeo beautiful

long live to Jeremy who was the man who started my passion for this brand, almost 10 years ago. Thanks to him my first and actual car is an Alfa and i feel like its not gonna be the last one.

I can't believe that guy who admires that Alfa also created Geoff 😂😂😂

Ah, Ludovico's music worked incredibly well with this short.. Particularly with the engine's backing vocals. The music by themselves is amazing, but with Clarkson's narration and the engine... Phwoar, goosebumps all over.

Now I know why people love Alfas.. Such beauty *

Bloody hell the best combination of cinematograhpy, soundtrack, journalism and narration. Hopefully the members of this brilliant team that absolutely reached the pinnacle of TV in 2013-2015 get together and make something again sometime.

Here in 2019, and this car & review is still the best by far.

"And a handcrafted body to Die for" This line gives me chills every time...

Just hearing Jeremy say "I love that car, I really do." Makes me emotional. I know he says that about every second car he drives but you can tell he really means it here. Great review, really shows what made TG different to everyone else.

Hands down this video deserves an Oscar for the sheer brilliance of Jeremy Clarkson ! That man is epic!!

Italian car, Italian views, Italian music. By far the best Top Gear review ever.

I cried

this is why i'm proud to be italian.

7 Years later and the Disco Volante still quivers and shakes my heart in this Clarkson Segment

I hope, one day, Alfa Romeo under the UNESCO. The mechanics of emotion

I love Italy! I love the mindset of the people there. I love the way they live and the way they think. I love the Language and I do love the Culture. I love the Art and the Heritage. I love the Engineering and I love the Craftsmanship. This Car is Italy! It's Stunning, it's alive, it's drowning in soul and hearth, it's everything great about Italy made into a car! It has its flaws, it has it's lows, but none of that matters, because once you feel something for it, there is NO coming back. I love this car. I love Italy. I love everything about it, and I can see nothing that could possibly change that. I know it is not perfect, that it is not flawless, but for me, it has no flaws.

We germans may be the best engeeniers in the world, building longlastig, fast and conftable cars, but italian cars are most beutiful things in the world, and i envy them for their craftmanship. Maserati Quattroporte, Alfa 8C etc.

I rewatched this episode last night, and I was almost brought to tears. Stunning work.

Everything in this video is pure excellence. Starting with Jezza, maserati engine, alfa romeo badge, Italian countryside and the cherry on the top Einaudi's Experience as bgm. This is one of the most special videos on youtube.

Italian road, italian car, italian music.....WOW!

This is why I think Italian cars are the best... some of them may not be reliable ... some may fall a bit short on onboard tech.. some may cost a bit too much for what they are... but.. from a car enthusiast point of view .. and from someone who has the HONOR to live in the most beautiful country this world has ever witnessed ... I simply think that not any other car brand in the world can give you feeling emotions tears goosebumps ecc like Italian ones.. simply sitting in a Ferrari already makes you break a tear.. because you know you're sitting in a legendary thing... I had the privilege to have a little trip with a friend that bought an Alfa 4c... man.. the sound alone made me smile like nothing else .. a lot of people may disagree but I can say at least for me ... no other sport car beside any Italian one can give you that kind of feeling.. and that's why Italian sport and super cars are doing so well.. they're simple masterpieces on wheels (no saying this because I'm Italian, German Japanese American ecc cars are absolutely amazing as well ... I simply think that they can't make you feel special like Italian cars)

That Maserati engine sounds absolutely gorgeous. It almost brings me to tears knowing that they're going to be converting to electric and this engine note will be a thing of the past soon..

I almost forgot to watch this today.

i think i've found my dream car

"This is the full baby Jesus" love that!! Best commentary he's done on a car!!! Music is just amazing.. You will be missed Jeremy Clarkson

One of the most beautifully designed cars ever

I dont know why. But every now and then I come back to watch this video. I have never owned a car, dont know how to drive properly. But all of a sudden this is my dream car and I imagine driving this masterpiece on the streets of Italy.

this is a car that u either hate or love it is like art

Music by: Experience : Ludovico Einaudi Mass Effect 3: Leaving Earth Mass Effect 3: An end once and for all

Still come back to this video today. The soul, passion and love that comes from this clip is unbelievable. Really is a testament to the golden era of Top Gear

Watching this in 2023. This video is an ode to a queen from her lover.

This is a prove that cars aren't only about handling, speed and power. Some cars a much more than that, and I'm happy that Jeremy found a perfect way to describe this car. Cause the only thing that matters in life is love - family, friends, things you love can not be explained logicaly. Love is the single thing on Earth that has got no explanation (except of quantum-physics). I want to say BIG thank you to Top Gear and especelly Jeremy Clarkson, for sharing this amazing car. Sure, I don't agree that it's beautiful car in the world, but I agree with Jeremy's feelings. I think that the point of this video wasn't just to review this car, I think that the point of this video was to prove what really matters to us.

Italians know how to make beautiful cars

Through all the years of this great program, for me, it was these smaller reviews when they truly fell in love with a car, that really were my favorite bits of the show.

It's 2022 and I've come back to this video once again for like the 100th time.

This is why Top Gear is at the top of car shows. In just 8 minutes they are able to make you feel like you want that car more than anything else. Even with womens it works slower. The music, the editing, everything is just spot on. This is getting emotional and that is really high praised.

The first time I saw this car I immediately thought "Now what the hell is this?" I honestly did not understand it. But as I watch the video again and again, I begin to realize the true meaning of the design. As far as I've deduced, the reason why so many call this car "ugly" even though it actually is a masterpiece is because its unconventional. you never see this kind of design replicated in other cars nowadays making it hard to understand. A good example of this is the line that connects both door handles which passes around the whole front of the car where the wheel arches, the headlights, and the grill all connect. It is one uninterrupted line that you can never see in today's design. You have to approach this car the same way you approach art - remove all your previous notions about what is right and what should be, then you'll realize its true beauty.

This is my most favorite Top Gear segment of all time in terms of single car spots. The cinematography, music and editing is at it's peak here, and Clarkson once again knocks it out of the park with witty analogies and passionate sincerity. Also love how the aspect ratio changes at 3:14 and again at 6:37 to let the audience breathe and admire the car and the scenery surrounding it. Crazy how 10 years later car youtubers are still trying to capture the essence of what made these Top Gear segments so great in the first place.

The car, the cinematography, the presenter, the music... everything just goes together so well that its beyond perfection, nothing touches the level of quality of this film

My God, what a gorgeous presentation! That's real love and respect for cars right there!

The level of those shots is godlike...

this car is a work of art. A masterpiece

This video is hands on the best video segment Top Gear has ever made for me. The background music, story, the car itself obviously. EVERYTHING about this video is perfect. This is the Top Gear I’m addicted to

One of Clarksons more intelligent reviews rather than just going round the Top Gear track going POWUUUUURRRR. He actually analyses it and describes it in perfect detail.

I have no idea how many times I've watched this.... and why do I keep returning.

Is it possible for a car to make someone cry? This car makes me tear up. It's perfection.

This is a masterpiece! Thank you Jeremy, absolutely awesome.

I must watch this video again and again, I am so proud like alfa fan ☘️🇮🇹

This car is to my opinion the heart and soul of Alfa Romeo!! The most beautiful Italian car!! The definition of passion!!! Wish I had one!

there will never be another group of guys that truly capture what it is to be madly in love with cars and how they make us petrol heads feel. they way they view and talk about them is truly unmatched. i owe so much to those three for all the knowledge and my continuous growth in passion for cars. it’s reviews like this that constantly remind me of that. one of the best ever made.

What an emotional rollercoast.. I laughed, cryed and was totally moved. What a man, what a car. Thank you, Jezza.

6:25 "I love that car"

we Italians do these wonders. these are the things that make me proud to be Italian.

One does not simply - to not drop a tear when there is a beautiful car with Experience in background

The Editing, Cinematography, Jeremy's voice matching the soundtrack.. this is why i watch UK Top Gear.

why top gear why? did you have to end! i wanna cry! the editing, cinematography is just so suited for the way this amazing show is!

This is my favorite Top Gear moment ever. "I love that car, i really do." It's like my love for Alfa Romeo come alive. I've only driven my three 156's but i still feel the spirit of Alfa Romeo. I drive a Saab 9-3 daily but still every time i'm driving my turbocharged Swedish machine i long for my Busso back home. I wish i had the money to keep my Italian love running...

I think the Maserati 4.7 might go down as one of the very best engines ever made. Just so amazing no matter what car it’s in😍

This is the most beautiful car ever!

My favorite top Gear segment ever . First thing I watched after crying my eyes out. Thank you Jeremy, Richard and James

Definitely the best editing I’ve ever seen. Those windshield shots of Jeremy are iconic. Nothing like it has been done. Perfection.

When I watch this video I'm proud of my lost name and to be ITALIAN.

Excellent. Easily the best looking car I've ever seen- and the review is equally brilliant. Great job.
