More like the way cars were designed in the 60's. Note that the Stelvio QV is much the same in person. A rolling compact piece of auto muscle and art.

Comparing Alfa's design language here vs. Audi, BMW and MBZ, or even Chevy's SS is like the look of a custom tailored suit vs off the rack at Nordstrom. The Nordy suit is just fine, but in person looks shabby compared to something truly bespoke. Cadilllac's latest iteration of Art & Science design language as well as Jaguar's current design theme's are closer in refinement, but not nearly as emotional. That's design of the Alfas coming. Hard to describe, but really special.
Oh No I totally get you on this we share the same feelings, I mean it's not like...



Don't worry the BRZ is still around hahaha but I do have to say that as a professional and an enthusiast like all of you. The Giulia is the best car I've driven all year and I drive a ton of cars. I am in love with it, so much : ) I've had only a bit of time with it so far because just got it this week. I'm sure Guff can tell you more and I'll add on whatever else anyone is wondering.
