7 Alfa Romeos (since 1980) that DON'T SUCK

[@tcrrr]

Alfa Romeo was once the greatest company in Italy in my opinion, only behind the Ferrari. Thanks Stype for giving love to the entire brand.

[@gymusen]

Funny how Ferrari was created after Enzo left them and started making cars to race inspired by Alfa, and when he won the first race agaisnt Alfa he was very emotional

[@Silver_Prussian]

The brera should have been on the list, its just a hatchback but its the most beautiful one to have ever existed, it made an appearence in a nfs game, a rare privilage.

[@sbottono]

The problem with the Brera, and why I hate it, is that it wanted to be a much bigger thing that it is. The car feels soulless, since it doesn't have that charisma that made Alfa special. They wanted it to be a car that could rival their german competitors performance wise, but the couldn't. And to be fair I think the Brera doesn't even look that special, since in the front it looks like a standard 159 and the different back doesn't make it special. So I think a standard 159 Sportwagon would have been much better. Of course, you have your opinion, but I think the Brera is one of the most useless cars made. I just don't see a market that would like this.

The Brera is my dream car, I'm Italian and we had lots of Alfa's at home and I'm planning to buy a Brera, but trust me, is not a great car like the one who are showed in this video, maybe for just one reason, it's TOO HEAVY and infact if one day I'll buy one I'll improve all the suspension and probably do some weight saving.

[@Silver_Prussian]

@@lucapellizzari5892 i would suggest to you to remove the interior, you can probably get a custom racing one that will wight nothing to replace the old one, remove the radio and back seats but dont remove the AC or you will die

[@thebalkansnorlax5455]

The Giulietta Quadrifoglio is very hated, in my opinion i have no idea why. Yes the quality isn't the best, but oh man it drives like no other hatch. It's very affordable for what it provides and with regular maintenance there's nothing to worry about. Extremely underrated car.

[@AlexTenThousand]

Because German car-pilled people have a bias towards anything FWD that isn't a Golf. It might even be a racist bias, because never in this world has ever been someone who criticised the VW Golf GTI for being FWD.

[@dylanwakley2553]

I love the giulietta to bits but they really don’t handle all that well, they’re geared to be more of a grand tourer than a spicy hatch so the suspension really is a bit too soft, however this is changed very easily

If they had more brand prestige and were more of iconic brand in the U.S. I think they’d sell a lot better because there’s premium cars from other car brands that are still in the ball park of being Alfa competitors that aren’t known for reliability, nice looking and feeling bells and whistles, some no bells and whistles that still sell a lot better and come from brands that are viewed better by more people too.

I own a Stelvio 2.0T Q4, Guilietta QV and a 159 3.2Ti fwd. The 159 is my favorite. One thing I've learned about Alfa's is to try them out yourself instead of relying on people's opinions

[@665Thunder]

A few facts to add a bit of context and share a bit more info with those who like this matter: - The Giulietta was a car Alfa had to make, it's blessing and curse was that in EU it sold very well, it looked so great that hey practically never re-styled it, a 2010 project that could compete with all the more boring competitors for almost 11 years,. indeed some aspects of it started becoming obsolete alfway. I've owned one for 6 years, never had any faults, with some good rubber, 1.35 tons, 170 HPs (gas), manual, with sport pack (-2 springs, Q brakes) was undeniably fun to drive and, surprise surprise, didn't understeer at all, it pulled easily more than 1g in corners, if you made it understeer, it meant you couldn't drive it. - 147, this car was the reason I ended up buying a Giulietta in my 20s. It was revolutionary, in a world where all hatches were FWD, this car introduced pure mechanical handling with double wishbones at the front and multilink at the back. I drove it on track and even a base diesel version could pull more than 1g in turns, everyone in italy loved it. It was the first fun to drive hatchback (except some limited versions of other competing models) - The 4C was expensive, because, unlike even some supercars, had a carbon tub. Go find a competitor to it. If you haven't bought it for the radio, you clearly don't know what a sports car is and you don't deserve and should never buy one. They are selling for up double the price now. - Stelvio, I tried to hate it, test drove it and purchased it right away. It's not like it drives better than most SUVs out there, it drives like a RWD sedan (better than most, except the Giulia, all others have worse suspensions and similar weight), you can't even compare it to an SUV. Ferrari engineers have worked on the suspensions (alfa can't say that in public but it was names who worked on the Enzo), has Zero understeer, and amazing 4WD system that works better than the one of a Macan, weighs 100 to 200kg less than any competitor, is reliable, sporty and comfortable at the same time (even without active suspensions), even a mid tier 2.0l gas does 0-100 in 5.7s, while still giving you 650km range. It's the total car, which sold less than it could due to sub standard infotainment at launch (which is what consumers care the most nowadays) Thanks for including also some honorable mentions! The 164 is a legend in italy, sharing the same chassis of more "boring" sedans, drove much better and had much more interesting engines (like the 2.0 v6 turbo). It was the first car I drove, and, while the FWD was a sin at the time to those Alfa 75 fans, with only 150hp it got effortlessly over 200kph, handled in turns and cruised with less than 70 decibels on board. I will never forget the shape of the dashboard (still a sexy design today - try saying the same of a contemporary BMW) and the super sporty front and rear seats, they don't make them like these anymore. I ended up almost buying a GT, same 147 platform but longer wheelbase and bertone looks. God I loved the interior, 4 real adult seats, large trunk, interesting engines, test drove a few, but had to move to another country. I still think it looks like the most beautiful daily coupe ever built (thanks Bertone).

I'd add the 156, 159 and Brera. IMHO the MiTo and the Giulietta weren't bad, but the fact that they were the only cars in the lineup (together with the 4C) was very disappointing. Even now the Alfa lineup is nowhere near complete, as Alfa Romeo only sells the Tonale and the awesome but aging Giulia and Stelvio. They didn't replace the MiTo, the Giulietta, the 4C, the 8C Competizione and the 166, and they didn't even make a coupè or a station wagon version of the Giulia.

[@KrayzeeAssKrisReturns]

I didn't realize there were only 500 8C's, and knowing that now makes the one I got to see on Sunday morning at a Starbuck's in Boise that much more special! That guy had a great collection of exotics that he would alternate for his Sunday coffee sit-down.

Something is gonna break sooner or later…there is a reason Giulias and Stelvios have 2 coolant tanks (1 for turbo and 1 for radiator). The car overheats a lot…very poorly designed, there is a coolant pipe that connects from the top of the engine to the upper coolant tank that is made of plastic, that will break due to the heat and vibration of the engine. I highly advise if you want longevity and reliability of your moms Stelvio to remove the tuning chip or whatever you have. I am a apprentice at a Alfa workshop and I have seen turbo oil leak, coolant leak, fuel pump not working due to customers putting on ‘race chips’ on their cars and slowly 1 by 1 all are taking them off or selling the cars. Enjoy the car for what it is Alfa is a very special brand but not one to be experimenting on 😅 Cheers

@@kyledrysdale6553 nobody said they're perfect, and its not a race chip. it's a proper tune by a proper company 'squadra tuning' yes the car overheats but its not build to be used as a race car. you do a few pulls and then you cool it down again, every car has to be driven like that or else they catch fire. look at all the ferraris and meclarens and stuff like that. they can catch fire after 1 pull

Well when you buy a 166 what you care the most is not the exterior (even if i personally prefer the pre-facelift) but for the interior. Probably the best looking interior ever seen in a car... And it handles surprisingly well for a saloon... Better than the 5series even, sadly the 166 GTA that could've competed with the E39 M5 never was released due to internal competition with the Quattroporte

[@magnustan841]

My home country Singapore, has plans to have “100% clean energy vehicles” on our roads by 2040. If that means no ICE cars at all and when you consider how much we have to pay to buy cars, you bet my one and only car would be a Giulia Quadrifoglio. I first got into cars around the time she came out and had won praise from everyone who drove it, evening lauding it above M3 and C63. The looks are to die for and it tingles all your emotions every time you interact with it. Great video man, ditto 100% on the fact that consumers are behind the SUV craze, not the manufacturers. Car nerds give them so much grief, but they’re merely responding to demand. If it went the other way, you bet everyone would drive around in something low, sporty and fast.

What I can say that Lancia and Alfa Romeo cannot be compared to any other car brand. It's true, we sat back and overlooked the details, the solidity and durability of a car during the oil crisis of the 1970s and in the years that followed. Reasons of sustainability, unemployment and continuous economic crises have led to a negative change of pace for these two historic brands. But we Italians, it's true that we sit down, but it's equally true that we get up (as is happening now), and when we do it, there's nothing for anyone, absolutely no one! And it's not even a question of money, it's a brain fact that either you have it, or you can't buy it.

Very funny cut-ins 😂👍

[@krisstian74]

I still believe the Giulietta is a good looking car in her segment, especially the back and the characteristic night lighting which make it immediately distinguishable.

[@nyancat2169]

Ah, if only you waited a month or two to release this video. Brand new Tipo 33 just came out

[@Subieenjoyer_idk]

4:43 initial d fans gonna undertand that part

[@harryhazza626]

Stopped by Starbucks this morning. Pulled up to drive-thru window and the barista asks, “OMG, are you driving a Brera?” I nod in response. She begins jumping with joy and says, “OMFG it’s a freaking Brera! John, look! He’s driving a Brera! You can speak Italian right?!” I proceed to say spaghetti and rev the engine through the 4 exhausts to spur further joy. She exclaims, “Oh my gossshhhh, oh my gosh! I’m so sorry I’m freaking out! Here’s your coffee have a great day!”

[@joeygil-hz9kv]

And than everyone clapped lmao

[@Vazgenaguz]

Thanks for this video! Alfa is a legend, no matter the "bugs" it always has!)))) Plus the design - bellisimo)))

[@wendigockel]

Let's not forget about the most beautiful starter car in any NFS game ever: The Alfa Brera. This car is so beautiful that you're best off leaving the car's looks at stock, saving you lots of money for the later game. And in real life, its only weakness is the timing belt, which needs a replacement every 70 000 kilometers. Apart from that, it's an all around scrumptious car to have. I'd love to own one.

[@tonicjack9823]

Unfortunately it has a Holden V6 in it (from GM Australia), why they didn't drop a lightly turboed Busso in it is incomprehensible. The Giulia Quadrifoglio is spectacular and should be on the list

[@TenorCantusFirmus]

Honorable mentions: 1) 164 Q4. 2) GTV6. 3) (Montréal?) Anyway, the 75 was a great car too. And the 159 is probably the most beautiful sedan ever.

[@otherscup]

Bro who the fuck complains about having physical buttons in a car? People are BEGGING for less touchscreens for years already.

[@hpcarthech4387]

Im seeing somewhat more consistent uploading schedule, kinda awesome

[@alfa_guy09]

The Stelvio is amazing, it doesn’t matter that it’s an SUV, it’s like a sedan

[@TopCarsTV]

Well, it uses a Giulia (sedan) platform

[@IrishStar]

Alfa Romeo GT 3.2 V6 Busso...yessssssss please......... 🇮🇹🍀🏎️🐍

[@stefan.2833]

the 159 could have made it to this list as being one of the best designs ever, sadly fiat feat gm kinda pooped on it. Imagine it was a pure alfa romeo underneath.

[@vfenner]

I owned a 2011 159ti with the V6 GM engine. It zipped fuel like crazy, and considering it was a 256hp AWD V6 engine car, it wasn’t as fast as you would expect (0-60 in 7 sec)… and yet, oh, how it drove and sounded. I also think it should’ve been on the list for the looks alone. Some people took pictures of it in parking lots…

[@Kevin-ps9yf]

I think all of alfa romeo models are cool and impressive 😁 Except the one called *Arna* 3:39,4:40,5:22,9:00

[@harleysargent3292]

Yeah, the Nissan Cherry piece of sh*t.

[@donbraga4863]

I remember when my father bought me and my brother an Alfa when we were young just to keep us away from trouble and back in the garage fixing our cars after each ride.

[@hellionus]

There is also extremely rare TZ3 Stradale, which is basically an Italian Dodge Viper

[@Future-R]

Alfa Romeo = TopCars TV = underrated

[@bigswag3319]

I love this channel so much and the commentary is amazing. The stale jokes kill it for me though

[@sphinx30]

True

[@yafmaverick]

159 proved very reliable in both engine and suspension areas. Not to mention it’s hard to find prettier car ever since it came out…

[@dluyyy433]

Imo the 156 gta deserved to be on this list too. The uncle of the giulia containing the legendary busso but still maintaining 4 doors that made a crazy family car (especially in the 2000s) with 250 ponies powering the front wheels thru a manual or a semi-automatic gearbox.

[@bambarylo]

The cheapest 4C I found in Europe was 63,000 EUR. Obviously a used one. Considering that the MSRP sates 67 000 USD which is around 61 000 EUR it is safe to say that used car dealers are greedy assholes.

[@garyradley5694]

Had a 1980 2.0 Alfetta sedan for 6 years here in Australia. Only time it let me down was when a spark plug failed the DAY AFTER it had been changed in a service. The thermostat in its aftermarket AirCon failed as well. Not an Alfa part though. Other than that it was 6 years of very happy and enjoyable motoring. Bought it for $11,000 second hand in 1992. Sold it for $10,000 in 1998. I probably spent $3000 on it having it resprayed after a minor accident to hot rod perfection and had fitted Koni adjustable shockers and nice alloys. One of the cheapest cars I have every owned.

[@Fillo_YT]

As an italian thank you

[@Tardis-rh2li]

Wish they had included the Brera ( even though it wasn't sold in the US ).

[@AndreaIppolitoIppo]

That Busso sound...goosebumps!

[@andygreener3130]

I owned a 159 SE. Fabulous car.

[@pinktutulove]

Personally the Giulietta TCR is one of my favs

[@assininecomment1630]

The Guila's 2.9L V6 is also in the recent Ferrari 296GTB, and has been in several Maserati models in the last decade.

[@lukalevstek7851]

I enjoy my Giulietta Multiair every day. I had no problems so far only regular maintenance. And it's cheaper to maintan than Renault Clio.

[@SpartanHighKing14]

There were three brand new Giulia Quadrifoglio GTA's for sale here in South Africa in the last 2 years, two of which were for sale here in Cape Town. So i doubt all 500 were sold before they were revealed to the public.
