Guys I'd like to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for writing all those comments on the internet about Italian cars. People here in Australia don't know Alfas, they are very rare, they see them on the road, they like them and then go on to read about them and come across your comments about how unreliable they are! And that keeps used Alfa prices rock bottom! You are offering a great service to the community, you saved me thousands of dollars on my used Alfa, thank you so much and keep up the good work!

Are you all kidding folks? You're buying brand new car, ridding it 1,5 year, making 20k miles and doing review about how reliable car is? DO 100k at least, then we can talk....

Love the car and I am pretty sure its going to be reliable. I drove a Giulietta Quadrifoglio Verde for almost 10 years and had no problems with it. Give the car a downpipe, good oil, the best fuel and take it to the service when its needed🍀

I don't care if it depreciates, often needs maintenance or what ppl say. If i had the money you would not catch me in any german car. This is a master piece

Had 2 of them. Not one problem ever. Amazing how far they came.

I’ve had my 2019 Giulia for nearly 3 years. The car has been perfect, no extra trips to dealer. Lease will be up in February and I am buying this baby. Like an Italian woman, it is beautiful and performs great and she really handles well. I hope to keep it a long time.

Diesel Alfas with JTD engines have been going for hundreds of thousands of kilometers in Europe with no fault, very reliable cars.

I am an Italian who loves ALFAs ... it always makes a certain effect to feel an American enthusiastic about an Italian car.

I've owned a wide range of Germans, and way more pricey ones, and my '18 TI Sport is hands down my favorite car I have ever owned. It's a blast and a beauty and enjoy any moment I leave the house. Viva Alfa!

I bought my new 2018 Q4 Ti Sport (Veloce) back in April of that year, so its coming up for 4 years old now. It has been completely reliable and only minor issues such as I needed to "re-calibrate" the sunroof. Had 3 or 4 software updates. Have only 27k miles on but its never let me down. I even parked it for 1 Month at an airport last July and it started up right away! Great 8-speed automatic with paddle shifters so you can select gears at will. Great car and I'm keeping it for a while!

I own a ti sport in Milano blue and I can honestly back you on reliability. These cars are awesome!!! People are missing out on a hidden gem of a car. Folks stop listening to the negative things things that people are saying about these cars and just go test it for yourself. You will be amazed! There is nothing else like it. NOTHING!!!!

I purchased my first Giulia in April 2018. I purchased my second in May 2021. It is the first car I have ever had that I turned around and bought the make/model again. These cars have not been perfect, I have had a couple of glitches where the dealer had to do updates. The first Giulia had right around 60k when I traded it in. The only reason is that I was at the dealership for an oil change and ended up trading when I and saw a blue one with only 16k I had to have. I have used both of them in my job where I was commuting from Peoria, IL to Tennessee and surrounding states where my job territory was at the time. I have never once experienced a mechanical issue that disabled the car. The car was my office, spent hours idling in parking lots in the hot summer with the AC running, stuck in traffic jams, etc.

best moment i had with my ‘18 Ti Sport, back in early 2019 i was behind a motorcyclist at a red light, he peaked in his side mirrors and did a TRIPLE take to take a look at the car. back then i was pretty sure i was the only one with a Giulia in the area (had the car since early 2018, it almost took 2 years to finally see another one in town), i definitely felt special. people aren’t joking when they say this car breaks necks despite it being a base model. the handling is my 2nd favorite thing about the car for sure, it almost feels like it’s doing a precise nose dive into a turn then eats it up like nothing. drove a friends c300 w/ the amg package and it does not even come close when it comes to handling, almost felt like a regular economy car compared to the Giulia.

Great vid, own a 2020 TI Giulia myself and absolutely love it. Happy you spread the word about Alfa’s, that are not nearly praised as they should be. Just a shame the Giulia will be the only model to showcase the Giorgio platform.

Suberb review! I have a Stelvio QF but really contemplating on getting a Guilia as my second! Love it man! Keep doing these reviews!

I think that what will people want to be told, and reassured about, is that the Giulia is BETTER and more rewarding than a BMW. It is a better proposition, and is equally reliable, if not better. It also has wayyyy more personality.

I bought a brand new Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrofolio when I retired in 2016. It has NEVER missed a beat after 30,684 miles to date. 01/22. Serviced every 12 months, no issues just one set of tyres!!!😁😁🇬🇧🇬🇧

Dude, best review evah!! That seals it thank you and great driving! Wonderful and helpful information all around. Especially, your reliability experience.

I got my 2018 ti July of 2021. I've love the car every single time I get on it. It's a true dream. Thanks for quality content and true testimony of the quality of the Giulias.

I have a 2017 stelvio Q4 base. That all wheel drive is a game changer. Acceleration is sick.

Been driving Alfa's for decades. Still driving my third 156 model (JTS 2.0). Ii's now 18 years, no oil use, engine as lively as new, no rust. It still looks as good as the Giulia here. I bought it for 2500 euro's some years ago. My former 156, a 1.8 TS, I also bought second hand, total maintenance cost over exactly 10 years, 3000 Euro!

Great video, got a Guilia Speciale - couple of issues so far after 14 months (new rear brake discs/pads as well as 2 new headlights) - both fixed under warranty. Love driving it, special car.

Thank you so much for the review. I am not sure if you wrote a script or freestyling but you are crystal clear! First time watching your channel!

Thank you so much for your videos I really appreciate your one of the main reasons I'll be picking up my Alfa Romeo Giulia in the spring

I am driving an 2019 Giulia Veloce Q4 always with a smile on my face! this is the most enjoyable car I've ever driven. I did with the car 50,000 km with absolutly no issues. Before this car I had an 2017 model of the same car. I had some childhood problems as it was a new car, but once it was solved I did 85,000 km with no issues. Before the Giulias I had 2 giulliettas QV . Fun cars not a single issue!

Car looks sharp. I enjoyed the video! I have a 2018 tI SPORT as well, 45k no major issues and still love it. Does your car have the factory carbon package? The side skirts look so nice. Was wondering if they were part of the carbon package or they have been added aftermaket?

Thank you for this vid ! I just bought an alfa romeo guilia ti sport back in September and I absolutely love the car. I been hearing the unreliability rumors, but I wanted this car since I was 16 & I grinded my way up to getting it. I told myself once i touch a good amount of $ thats the car im getting. Im 21 now, doing well and am absolutely blessed to have this car. Great video btw and love your car !

I felt the same about the 4c a superb machine that most did not get! I am an Alfista since 1976 still drive my 1976 Spider in Florida as a second car!

I love the video, you covered everything in detail and the fact that you track the car? You already have my respect and I know you know what you're talking about. I love how european cars are getting more reliable! I always loved how a lot of them looked especially for the Giulia. They're also super affordable for amazing performance. Was thinking of a Q50 but their turbos are very unreliable. It's honestly funny how a Japanese car is more unreliable than an Italian car nowadays. Pretty crazy

I found your video whilst doing my research on the Giulia and I cannot believe how well spec’d your Alfa’s are for the price in the USA. In Australia were get three models and the midrange car is the ‘Veloce’ and is around $80,000AUD! I was already jealous enough - and then you show off by driving it around COTA, so now I hate you!😂 Thanks for the very detailed and honest video mate, I will be looking for more content from you in future. 🙏

good thing i ran into your video before purchasing my first car i was in love with the alfa romeo i literally used to watch videos of this car all day but i was told its not reliable i love the car i have now but i still want to join the family i pray im able to get one soon , you earned a subscriber bro .

Own a 2021 QV and it's fantastic. Had 2 main issues which have all been rectified. Electronic throttle control issue under 100 miles of purchased. Fixed in 3 days due to factory related issue. No issue since then, and I'm sitting at 8.4k miles. The other, a coolant wiring issue which caused fans under the hood to stay on when car was in motion. Rectified in a day. I drive this car as a daily and outside of those two issues, the car is perfect. Practical, fun and safe! Next car will be an alfa or step up to a Ferrari. Either way, Alfa brand is on the rise in the US. the dealership network will get stronger! count on it.

My QV has been super reliable, no real issues so far and it’s nearly 5 years old! Totally agree with you about the batteries, I say you take care of the battery and it will take care of you! 👍

Good review, i own a Giulia Quad since 2019, has been nothing but perfect. y brother also owns the Ti and his has also been trublefree for now almost 4 years.

looks fun! researching 2022 and newer models right now... your vid great starting point!

Great review! I'm test driving a 2022 today ... awesome tablas for the great video

Previously owned the Giulia Veloce for 2 years - did 24k miles - and had one issue which was a strange squeak coming from the steering column. Dealer fixed within a few hours and on my way. Now had a Quadrifoglio for 18 months - currently 16k miles - and not a single issue. The only problem I have with the QV is that it's so much fun, only managed 7k miles before having to replace the rears!

I owned a 2018 for 3 years and loved it. I had absolutely no issues with it other than it ate tires because I rode it hard. It did break a connector in the turbo coolant line but was a simple fix. No issues with my battery.. I want a quadrifoglio but will.have to wait a while.

Enjoyed your video! It is a pleasure to drive my Alfa Romeo Giulia Q4!!! It is so much fun!!!

great video and nice to read the comments that they agree on the reliabilty.

I had a 2018 Stelvio with battery issues and radiator issues. Alfa cares did not handle it well and the dealer - the only one in our entire large state - refused to change it out. The car was a couple months short of the end of the warranty. I traded it in. Also lots of engine lights coming on periodically. Loved the car, but good luck.

One of my friends had the fuel pumps go out at ~35k miles. Car would shut itself off after a couple hours of driving and pull itself over on the side of the road. You had to wait like 30 minutes before it would start again.

I am italian and a car enthusiast. And I'm really happy reading all these comments about you guys buying Alfa cars and enjoying them. Alfa romeo was and still is not very notorious in foreign country but I think Giulia and Stelvio are catching up a little bit. And I own a Stelvio Ti and I love it.

Great video! Question, where did you get the yellow side emblems, they are great!

Excellent, excellent review. It is a gorgeous machine, inside and outside. You did the proper upgrades to make the car quick on the track.

I'm glad that you've done a reliability video on the guilia. I too own one of these fantastic gem 💎 of a car and this is the best thing to a FERRARI. LIKE FERRIS BUELLER SAYS, "IF YOU HAVE THE MEANS, I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THAT YOU PICK ONE UP."

I love your car! Recall Alfas from mid to late 60's living in present day Croatia. Italians used to come over to do road racing on public roads - roads were open to other traffic at the same time - recall the sound their engine made...was wonderful. Local pharmacist had a four door Giulia...he was a cool dude, drove it with full brio!

💯Everything your saying is so on point.. !!!!! I own a 2019 and I'm loving the Alfa Romeo Giulia ..... Was thinking of going over to the S AMG 63 but having a hard time parting with the way this car performs !!! Seriously !!! She is no joke meaning the Alfa... The battery issue you spoke on is exactly the way you called it had that as the only issue ever on mines and it was a very easy fix. I now have 44900 miles on my Giulia, and to this day and have never even had a brake change and I do drive hard. But I do know how to drive. Much love for this post my brother. Hope this help anyone on the fence of buying one..

Love this video. Glad you went over these early car issues. How do you reset the oil change reminder in the car? Did you have to use the dealer or use dealer software?

Awesome review of the Giulia! You really hit all the points of why I think I'll never want to Not have a Giukia again lol. Glad to see you enjoying the TI Sport to the fullest, I have a QV now and I still miss the TI in some ways

Thank you for this superb and informative video. Am on my second Alfa 159 but the Guilia is definitely my next car. Nothing compares to this.

I has a QF for 18 months - no problem except hitting barrier lightly on track day - a beauty

I had the 18 Giulia QV, and have a 19 Stelvio QV. Never a problem with either.

I LOVE my Guilia ti Sport. I bought it new, 2021 model. Although I’ve had some bad luck in it (broken rear rim bringing it home!) (broken front bumper from hitting a large Ottoman in the road going 50.) It has been the BEST car I’ve ever driven. Mechanically, no issues whatsoever. By far the most FUN car I have had. Would highly recommend it. I have owned it since August 11 2021. At age 60, not my first rodeo. I get lots of notice and on occasion an impromptu race pops up. I hit Dynamic mode and beat them all. Easily beat a Challenger the other day without Dynamic on. I love, love, love my Guilia.

Thank you so much for sharing. I have been looking at a ti sport 2020 and have been on the fence about buying it but I will check out the battery and any fluid leaks under the hood I keep hearing about.

yeah I think that the reliability issues are mainly on the older models. My mom had a 156 and you would just wake up to the brakes being jammed or the head gasket being blown etc.

I think the only way I'd love the Giulia even more is if they did a liftback or station wagon/estate version, it's such a perfect car.

I had a 2017 Q4 from 2018 to 2021. Bought it with 9k original miles. Traded it in at 60k miles (I commute 100 miles a day) because: 1) couldn't fill up the gas tank due to some charcoal filter issue, 2) the steering wheel clicked when turning to one side. The dealer wanted to replace the entire steering column. 3) the radiator was "seeping" fluid, but it was leaking, 4) and a couple other things the dealer found that I had no idea about. Total cost of maintenance was going to be $7000+, so I drove it over to Lexus and got a reliable car.

nice vid. got myself a 2023 qv performante last week.. love it.. enjoy your car :;)

Love your content, keep it coming. What size rims and tires are you running? Looks staggered to me.

Own 2 Alfa Romeo GT's 1.8 Twin Spark Monza II Edition, and the Busso 3.2 V6. Not a single thing has ever went wrong with them, they are in immaculate condition!! Reliability is NEVER an issue. 🇮🇹🍀🏎️🐍 I will never drive anything else! Alfa Romeo forever!!

Great video. I own the Motor Trend Misano Blue Ti that they had in their fleet back in 2018. I just hit the 50,000 mile mark and the car has been flawless. The only three issues I had were the same starter relay problem, which I replaced with a brand new relay, my rear defroster doesn't seem to work, and the auto start/stop never kicks in. I never really spent any time diagnosing those issues because they don't really bother me. All I care about is I've had the car for 2 years and I didn't have to put a dime into repairs.

Glad to see a review of the Q4, I've seen a lot for the QV but to me it is irrelevant: I want one of the most beautiful car ever but I don't need all the high-end performance and AWD is a no-brainer for where I live. Thank you!

Loved the overview

I absolutely love my Alfa. Best daily driver hands down

Just one last thing....we are both currently enjoying the GIORGIO platform...this was SERGIO MARCHIONNEs masterpiece...it will never be replicated by the FRENCH in their wildest dreams...therefore WE ARE DRIVING HISTORY! Merry Christmas!

Great vid man. Really good info and positivity here

Hi, love your videos. I've driven a few Giuias and am considering one. What are the horsepower and torque gains, after the tune and exhaust?

I have a 2019 and I’ve never really had problems except from the battery and I’m on a stage 1 tune planning on going Stage 2 with a downpipe. I love the car tho sounds and drives amazing.

Interesting to see how it holds up beyond warranty. Im seriously considering one for my next car. How is the 0-60 accelarstion 4.5 secs but car and driver shows about 5.5 secs?

Seriously considering one of these and have seen a lot of videos, thanks for this, you should be selling them, I found it properly insightful. I've had a lot of German cars, in fact something from all of their manufacturers and the vast majority have had at least some sort of electrical or computer problems. Indeed I have one right now that throws up a check engine light if I even look at it the wrong way. I've had enough, maybe it's time to try a little Italian action. Thanks again, great video.

Hey love the videos! I’m looking into getting one of these this week my question is are you under warranty and do you feel comfortable owning the car if you are not ?

Had mine 13months Quadrifoglio Had it remapped by celtic tuning to 604bhp Never missed a beat in 24k miles

I had my Giulia quadrifoglio for three years. Constant problems. Active aero had problems for 12 months. Car was always in the service shop. Final straw was my turning on the rear heated screen one cold morning to find it didn't work. The fix, to remove the loom as the rear screen is hardwired to the fusebox!! I traded the car and walked away. It was beautiful, fast and a real pain in the butt.

Yo thank you so much for the great information bro I have been car shopping and I broke it down to this car. And a E350, but jus from watching your video im leaning to this car even more so thank you

Have had my giulia for a couple months now had the radiator issue and has been fixed since then no issues great car🔥🔥🎖

2018 Quad owner here. Got engine work done at 6.7k miles. The got a new engine at 18k. Because it blew up while accelerating in 3rd gear doing 60 mph. Luckily not much traffic. At 24k new radiator. At every fresh start up to use Apple car play via my iPhone, the phone needs to be reconnected via the usb cable. While driving the headlights will momentarily flicker off and on or turn off then back on. Only notice that at night. All work done was covered and under the warrenty. Would I recommend it? Absolutely yes, as long as you enjoy driving, with bursts of speed and pinpoint accuracy. And have a bumper to bumper warranty. I will sell it or trade it before the warrenty expires. And get a new one.

I own a 2019 Stelvio and I’ve never had a problem with it. The car has been absolutely perfect. My radiator was replaced under the service bulletin but it never leaked.

Looks like I will have to get one Next to my 124 Spider Abarth. Great Review 👍

This alfa is just absolutely beautiful. What are your fitment specs? The fitment is just perfect Like what springs and how many mm spacers are you on front and back

Great car four years no problem just bliss and great times. Don’t know where the unreliability rumours came from, service has always been honest and a great experience Foglio - G is silent.

Very reliable. Got 53k on my 2017 Giulia and no issues. I had a faulty sensor fixed under warranty and was given a loaner Stelvio while part came in. Other than that, do the scheduled maintenance. My base model is low cost brakes, tires, oil change.

Welp looks like I need one of these in my life! Great video with great info man. Beautiful car by the way.

Wow, great review. It's beautiful! You were smart to get the 4 instead of a 6. It was a good price too. I am not big on turbos. I wish you could buy it without one. You have a wonderful car. Thanks for showing it to us.

I have a 2018. 15800 miles … runs like a race car 🏎! 👍🏻

I will say to some of the European comments here. We here In the US tend to drive way more than you guys. Pure geography. The racked up miles test the durability and endurance of the cars much more. Beautiful car man!

Great video bro! Thinking about getting one of these!

Love your Alfa brother, looks sick! I was wondering where you got your steering wheel carbon pieces ??

There's no way you got that for under $30k new? Your spec probably costs at least $45k msrp.

I bought a brand new 2019 Guilia Ti sport and I absolutely loved it until about 15,000 miles. It was in the shop for over two months off and on for issues that they couldn’t seem to figure out. I experienced the battery issue within six months I had in the car and they replaced it with a Maserati battery because they said six months to get a new alpha Romeo battery! at 12,000 miles I started smelling antifreeze and I noticed a pinhole in the radiator and within a week it was gushing all over the engine. I took it in to service as I was about to go on a trip and they were very nice about it however they had to give me a radiator they had waiting for another customer because I was so upset that I just been in three times already in the past 2 months. The other issues I was having was that it took me 20 minutes to fill up the gas tank every time because the pump would just click off and I would have to baby it to get the rank full. Embarrassing to say the least. Finally after a code came up after two years of this in the car because they could never figure it out and they eventually replaced some part in the fuel system to make it stop doing it but at that point i already had so many computer issues as well I was done with the car. Was the most fun I’ve had in a car in a very long time on the twistiest of roads as far as handling and looks go it was unmatched. I’ve had 33 cars in my lifetime and none that were that beautiful. It is my daily driver so it has to be reliable. Again it was a great car up until 15,000 miles. Was definitely worth the experience but I would buy a used one to let somebody else get all the quirks out of it first and make sure it’s under warranty. Replaced the Alfa with a total opposite car which is a 2020 mustang GT, Oddly enough the insurance dropped when I bought the GT? Well worth the experience of owning the Alfa though. Just know what you are getting into. This will be my 6 th Gt but there will only be one Alfa.

Thanks for this very informative video! I'm getting a QV, probably the Stelvio.

Great Review mate. much appreciated.

Yes it is reliable. It s a great timeless well built car.

Got nearly 50k on my Giulia, love it to death still. No issues but need a new battery.

Great video and beautiful car! Thanks for sharing have this on my short list for new car if I go for a four door next.

Damn, never really looked into these cars. Beautiful machine. Great vid.

I honestly thought this was a rich person's luxury car. It wasn't until I recently googled the cost did I realize it's totally reasonably priced! Now I can't stop looking at them... Definitely looking at getting one now

I will say I have a Giulia TI and I’ve had numerous issues. Bought used with 12k miles on it. I’m at 36k now. I’ve had the AC, fuel pump go out. My sunroof latch/ track broke. I currently have an issue with the oil in the vehicle. Read 3/4 on the electronic meter ( don’t get me started on how dumb this is ) the day before it read oil change required and was on red. No leak that I saw. It’s sad because it truly drives great, feels great. But the issues so far, which have been covered by the warranty, are a problematic and annoying.

Great vid chief...Thoughts on getting an ecu tuning/piggyback during the warranty period?

Fantastic video! Loved it! Subscribed!
