Alfa Giulia QV challenges BMW M3 on Amazing Road - TV Season 2 Ep. 5 | Everyday Driver

[@m3petem3]

Folks this is one of the best reviews I've seen of the these two cars. I have owned a C63 and also an older type M3 but I have to say I chopped my 63 in for a brand new AR QF, and yes it has the Italian issues but I love it. What a great drivers car, something sadly the Germans lack. I've done 1500 miles so far and people out there love it. Pull up at a petrol station and people will come over and talk to you, driving on the road people get up close to check it out. Thumbs up from bikers, I'm excited for the future of Alfa Romeo but let's hope my decision is not tainted by the Italian reliability. Big thumbs up guys 👍🏻

[@cutdepiefails6596]

@@gregorythomas4470 actually, I was wrong the REAL, actual fast and probably the first sports sedan was the mark 1 jaguar, almost no doubt. The 300sl was just in production with 200hp and drum brakes, and there it was a 4 seater, 200hp, 4 disc brakes, comfortable, with what was essentially a racing engine from some of the most successful race cars of the time.

Yes ikr, but actually it was Giulietta at first, once they upgraded from the 1300cc to the 1600 and 1750 and 2000 they changed the name to Giulia. But Ikr, the first sports sedan was literally the predecessor to the Giulia, sad no one knows the history of the brand. I love my alfa, not many people my age do. I saw an old man in a 1750 Giulia TI Berlina in traffic a few days ago, I jumped out and took a pic of his car, he had his window down and I talked to him quickly at the light, the smile on his face when I knew what exact kind of alfa it was, it was priceless. I’m sure he was happy to see a young man look at his car the same way he probably did when he was my age, it made my day to see his smile.

[@guepequeno1749]

The German is a span above only on the electronic system, the Alfa is better both as a design and as a driver and engine. The electronic system leaves it to the retired, the real guide to the pilots. Alfa Romeo forever!

[@neilvincent5524]

I once had a dream (seriously) that I bought a 147 GTA and it made the most wonderful sound I ever heard. Can still hear it in my head. I've recently got the Giulia QV in real life. In Race mode it's very loud. With the windows shut it's not overly brash and the sound is exciting if not as lovely as a Busso. But then, it has twice the power of most Busso engines.

[@jamesrosch]

okay. I will just record myself the next time I eat Mexican food.

[@docadams2012]

I love it and i hate it at some levels. I love my Alfa Quad exhaust when its in RACE mode but when its in Dynamic or lower mode you can hardly hear it. It has to be above 3000 RPM. For that you have to switch to lower gears again n again.

Alfa's got nothing on the BImmer. They have Chrysler and Fiat for a parent company, and the 4C already failed in North American. The Giula will have the same fate, sadly, while the M3 will keep taking names. Alfa doesn't have anything to wrestle with an M2, which is even better than the M3/M4.

[@sriramramamoorthy1589]

BimmerMann practically your answer holds weightage in reality

[@WrUSasu]

BimmerMann I don't understand what the parent company has to do with it. If you say no competition for the M2 you are right, right now they don't have anything but apparently the new Giulietta (or what ever the name will be) will aim at the M2. I don't think we'd agree on something regarding BMW and their competition though.

As a 5 Series owner, I’d honestly pick the Alfa any day over a 3 Series. It looks so much better and from a driving standpoint, it looks like it has more personality.

Let's be honest and not biased here. Everyone is talkng shit of the m3 exhaust and praising the alfa. In my opinion they both sound like shit here in the same way, there is almost no engine sound, just some artificial rattle and burble in the exhaust. There is no melody in the sound, they are just making noise. I don't know if the recording is just bad and there is more difference in person, or these really sound that bad.

[@sriramramamoorthy1589]

Amin Bajrektarevic can't agree more I guess amg and maserati v8 are the benchmarks when it comes to exhaust note

I have driven on proving ground and on the road over a long weekend. I’m so impressed with the Quad. The driving position, the feel of the drive and the power are all awesome. I pretty much didn’t take it out of race mode, after all why go tame. Wow, it’s got enough kick, pace, noise and drama for me. I’ve driven a lot of other cars including the new M5 and this is pretty much up there. A for the M3 I haven’t taken a latest model out, however I have the M5. The M5 is really incredible and can handle everything that I threw at it. You really trust it, after all German engineering. But I felt more passionate about the Quadrifoglio.

Always watched your reviews and was intrigued with the Giulia after this. I just gave up my 335i for a Giulia Ti Sport performance so I have the active suspension and LSD. I knew I needed to buy this car the moment I felt the steering. The aggressive steering angle made my BMW felt numb. I’m down on power 310hp or so to 280hp and down 2 cylinders and some exhaust noise but the sacrifice is worth it. I don’t hear exhaust noise but every time I drive the car its so lively even in regular daily drives as long as I take a corner. Also, 7 years of the BMW and I never get any attention but the first time I drive my Alfa and I got a huge “I love your car!!” And a huge thumbs up. It’s a stark difference in appeal. When people said people actually walk up to talk to you about your car when parked or pumping gas, it’s real. Haha

1. When did BMW start making engines more exotic than Ferrari? 2. Why would you add weight to the front of a car (ruining the handling) by adding cylinders you don't need? 3. 8-speed ZF is not "conventional automatic" even if the basic operating principle is...

[@LonelywolfBojan]

Alfa is more funny to drive, it handles better, drives better, its enough.

[@googleleavemynamealone9145]

A GREAT Review! Absolutely fantastic! It really seems that you guys thought of this on your own. I see too many of the same phrases used in so many reviews, this is a great breath of fresh perspective.

[@thepalm2791]

Victory for alfa again, superb!

[@mikenorris5378]

This is the best review of these two cars on KZbin. Love your insight into the handling. Keep doingthe 2 person presentation it really works. Keep up the excellent work!

[@TylerLore]

The Alfa is so beautiful.

[@targaflorio3239]

Seen many reviews. This has to be up there with the very best. Insightful. Entertaining. Well thought out. Concise. And some great aerial photography. Brilliant job EveryDay driver. Subscribed! (PS. I'd still take the Alfa Giulia QV)

That ZF has to be the greatest automatic transmission of all time. It has powered so many different cars... everything from trucks to Hellcats to luxury SUVs to sport sedans

[@Thepar123]

Definitively *the* sports sedan maker has always been alfa...BMW did what madza did for the british roadster, mass and reliability while retaining the same feel

[@MD-uu5nt]

Phil Rutherford I'm trying to think of a reliable series of M3....pretty sure they all have serious issues.

[@shaft9000]

Issues, sure. but not deal-breakers. 70s and 80s italian cars were notorious for electrical problems. And in a colder climate you couldn't just hop in them, fire up and go very well without letting the engine and oil lines warm up for a few minutes.

Just read any BMW forums to see how reliable BMW's are....

[@sebasfragachan6994]

Sebastián Demaría alfa is faster

[@zeroceiling]

reliability issues are starting to catch up with Alfa....despite its speed..,

[@zeroceiling]

n s ...have we really hit a point where we find a car lasting three years without problems...good enough? Resale value will still impact someone down the line. A manufacturer cannot have a product out there with a reputation for reliability issues. Even on leases, how do lease companies get rid of lease returns if they are known to have problems? Someone somewhere in the process has to pay a price for bad reliability reputation....its not like a $50,000 car dropping in value down to $27,000 in 3 years...is somehow not going to hurt someone..somewhere...in the pocketbook...specially if nobody wants to buy it used...unless deeply discounted...and who ultimately takes “that” hit?

[@zeroceiling]

n s ....absolutely true!....”If” all..or most of your buyers are millionaires...then you are right. If, however, you are a mass manufacturer, who depends largely on buyers from the middle class, then you have to be concerned with your re-sale value, and therefore...your reliability.

Hey guys, thanks for another lovely video. It's a really excellent comparison. The only criticism (hopefully constructive) that I have is the adbreaks which are very sudden. Obviously this is a symptom of being shot for TV (since KZbin only has intrusive videos at the beginning) but I think there must be a middle ground you'll be able to achieve that balances the two formats a little better.

[@starfox0u0]

Bmw didn't create the segment. Alfa did. Alfa just didn't participate in the segment for decades letting BMW own the segment.

[@EverydayDriver]

We suspect it depends on where you define the beginning of the segment. Doesn't the BMW 1500 predate the Giulia? We are open to your take on the topic, but the point in this film is the gap in Alfa's participation.

[@BizAutomation]

According to Wikipedia, the Giulia was introduced in 1962 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alfa_Romeo_Giulia, the same year as the 1500 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BMW_New_Class, making them both the 1st year of the 4 door versions of each. I'm assuming the race heritage to that point and the 2 door Giulietta of the 50s hints at why it's often given that title. I would side with Starfox on this one.

[@dinopappous6639]

And you would be right.....The 1500, 1600, and 2002 BMW were DINOSAURS when compared to their Alfa competition...See my comment above....

[@fabiomaster1995]

Dino Pappous is right, and if we go back to the previus generation the Giulietta also smashed its rivals.

[@dragoneroscuro]

+EverydayDriver When the Alfa Romeo produced sports cars. BMW only manufactures motorcycles and airplane engines

[@floridamaddogg]

I always enjoy these videos and reviews from these guys! I am a manual only guy and have owned several nice cars including Evo IX, EVO X, BMW M2 6-speed, and currently own Challenger Hellcat 6-speed. I have always wanted the M3 competition pack, but at that point in my life, I couldn't afford a $88k car, and ended up getting a much more affordable M2, which was still a fantastic car. So of these 2, I would still choose the M3, but the Alfa Romeos are definitely starting to grow on me. No manual option is a big reason I would never consider actually buying an Alfa Romeo. Lets see what the future will bring, but my current Hellcat is a keeper for a LONG time. That car will give you a permanent smile which is what its all about.

[@sultanoftippoo3857]

Florida Maddogg I totally respect your love of manuals. My e39 M5 & e92 M3 were both manuals but i moved over to DCT with my 2017 M2 (couldn't find a manual version). It took me a good week to use the paddle shift properly but honestly, once you crack it, you lose nothing to a stick shift. I picked up my Quadrifoglio recently and i totally love it (blows the M2 away in every respect). All i'd say is at least test drive the Alfa and tick it off the bucket list - you won't regret it!

[@xynostasos9022]

Maybe too late, but in europe it also came with a 6 speed manual until 2019.

[@timberlinecline3667]

I would take the Alfa Romeo it's just a fresh look and more beautiful car even if you don't drive it hard it's still stunning just standing in traffic

[@YTU37]

What a wonderful, high-end production. Only 216k subs ? It easily rivals big names like Motortrend and such, great job guys. And what a great pair of fantastic cars!!
