Some people wanted me to give an update. My car is now over four years old, and it has had one problem which was an oil leak on one of the turbos. Since the time I made this video, I added a 2010 Porsche 911 GT3 to my garage, which is a thrilling car. I love it. But the truth is I still get more laugh-out-loud joy from my Giulia QV. It's so friggin' fun! Thank you for all the kind comments!!

@@Anthony-qh1xv Alfa Romeo has always produced tastefully designed cars. The Giorgio platform the Giulia is developed on is an automotive masterpiece. It needs an annual service as most modern cars and I’d suggest as with any turbocharged engine to always remember to run the engine for a minute before rolling out of the garage and run it again for a minute when cooling down after a drive before switching off. My Giulia Quadrifoglio is still my dream sports sedan.

Good taste in cars, my man! My previous two cars were AMGs. I now have a Giulia QV. It's given me no problems whatsoever. I plan to replace it. With another Giulia QV. A lot of the problems with the electronics was with the original battery, which was fitted 2017 - 2019. That's a problem. But an easily solved one.

I have the EU 2.0 200bhp that was chipped to 300bhp-ish. The 280bhp here was only available in AWD, wanted an RWD car, and the engines are pretty much the same anyway except for the software, so... A few things to note: - the suspension is softer than the QV, although I also have the dynamic sports suspension. In D it stiffens up a bit, but when I drove a QV, the D suspension mode there felt a bit stiffer. Race mode goes even further. - it doesn't have the Race mode (and no way to turn off traction control) - it doesn't come with the carbon fiber stuff (except for the driveshaft, which is carbon fiber on every Giulia) But it is a fantastic daily driver which is loads of fun to drive, only the 200bhp was holding the car back a lot. The chiptune also disabled the start-stop completely so yay!

The F154 V8 uses twin scroll manifolds..4 cylinders per bank. Spilt in 2 each side. The giulia engine uses single scroll manifolds..being a V6 with 3 cylinders per bank instead of 4 cylinders per bank in the V8 , its cant spilt the ports evenly. Hence the single scroll usage for the giulia engine. Still has almost no lag. And pulls like a train to the limiter.

But they don't have soul! The Giulia has soul. Best feature the sound track included. Courtesy of Ferrari. I think the Giulia is one of my favorite cars of all time for all the great things the Giulia does and is the direct opposite of what the Germans and Japanese are doing. Amazing car Kevin.

@@kevind2760 Yes, I'm a very satisfied customer of many years and I'm happy for Kevin's success which is well deserved! Upscale has more than treated me well and has gone the extra mile even when I didn't expect it. I ordered my PrimaLuna Prologue amplifier from The Audio Room (Brian is now retired). I didn't recognize the KT88 power tubes and thought they were supposed to be another tube type (I was more familiar with the smaller signal tubes like 12AU7, 12AX7, etc.) when I unboxed the amp but was so excited with getting the amp going that I didn't think much of it. I called Brian the next day and said I seem to recall in the back of my mind that the power tubes may be different. Brian said, "I wondered if you would notice - you've been upgraded!" Upscale is not only a retailer but also is the U.S. distributor for many brands, including PrimaLuna. They were out of stock on the amp I ordered and shipped the next model up at no extra cost to me. Kevin, You're a bad influence! Your review and Phil at Auto Fanatic were responsible for me in getting a new 2021 QV last November. (Tri-Coat White and Tri-Coat Competizione Rosso were unavailable for 2022 when I was in the market.) I traded in a 2019 Giulia Ti Lusso. Just got the JL subwoofer installed two days ago. Wishing you much continued success!

Great review that really resonates with my own experience. I wish some parts of the motoring media would cut some slack on Alfa reliability. It's a cheap story to write and it is not fair when viewed alongside so many other vehicles. This is by far the most reliable car I have ever owned. It's been in the garage ONCE in 4 years for an unscheduled service and that was for the throttle-body issue which you mentioned. Fixed and not a heartbeat wrong since then. Honestly, if a car were to sell on its driving merits alone, the Giulia should sell 10x more cars than it does right now. For me, I'm happy there are not too many on the roads because I like driving something that is not your everyday ignorable, bland vehicle. For Alfa Romeo I really hope it puts them back on the bucket list for people looking at their next car. Such a good vehicle.

Great guy. Very honest and straight shooting. I've gotten hifi gear from Kevin since about 2010 and had excellent service. They really back what they sell. This review was what tipped me over in getting a QV. Traded a used 2019 Giulia Ti Lusso that I had 7 months for a new 2021 QV. I had driven BMWs for 43 years prior to getting the 2019 Alfa because the latest BMW's don't put "a smile on your face". The recent generations are not fun to drive.

Excellent review Kevin. People need to know the truth about Alfa. I’ve owned nothing but BMWs- 7 of them, and all had their problems. Recently I was just about to buy the new 2021 BMW M340 coupe. Nice car, but then I test drove the Giulia QV. What a difference. The QV is so much better. I’ve never been so impressed with the driving experience. It’s impossible to describe unless you get behind the wheel and experience it for yourself. I’m now buying one.

What a great video! I work at an Alfa and Maserati dealership and people always complain that they aren't reliable and they use some bits and pieces from the FCA parts bin. So what? These are small manufacturers and it's a no brainer to use parts that already exist and work fine. These Italian cars are about the sound and experience they provide more than anything. They also provide brand prestige, Alfa Romeo just turned 110 years old!! How many brands can say that and have a long racing heritage? Without FCA's help these amazing brands wouldn't exist today, so let's forgive a few switches shall we.

This is my dream garage right there: Porsche 911 and Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio. You have good tastes, sir! As for the reliability of the Giulia, there’s no denying that Alfa has really upped their game in recent years. Ironically, as you’ve showcased in the video, Porsche seems to have fallen in reliability themselves as their cars have become more and more complex over the last two decades or so. Or maybe, in this case, it’s due to the influence of VW/Audi into the company culture. Either way, the Giulia seems like a great buy for a car enthusiast, while the 911 is still a classic for the deep-pocketed of us that don’t want to go all silly teenager mode with an Avantador or something like that (Aston Martin is also a great choice in that regard, I think).

Well, that's a little judgemental. I got a work permit at the age of 12, and have worked very hard now for 52 of my 64 years of living. I've been fortunate that Upscale Audio is one of the most successful companies in the country. However, I have a lot of friends who own stores, and while many squeeze out an OK living, the vast majority go broke. We've lost half the dealers that we had 15 years ago. There's a joke in audio, and it goes like this: How do you make a small fortune in High End audio? Start with a large fortune.

nice video there mate. I like your style. I too have a quadrifoglio (2020) and absolutely love it. The only thing I don't like however is the brakes in stop-go traffic - they seem to get "stuck" when you release the brake pedal for a second or two before the brakes release. Has anyone else had that problem in their quad, and what's the fix? Thanks.

Same issue on my 2017. Not always but often enough. The other annoying issues is coming to a stop at lights. virtually impossible to do is smoothly. Seems crazy given its brake by wire and they’re programable.

Hi there! First time in your channel, and l like to thank you for your honest rewiew, of a great car. Realising you are a driver first of all, l like to say this. Since day one , specially, after the N ring best lap time, beating ALL The Big names, ( the video is on YT), they did not digest it very well not to mention their suprise. AR QV has brought, their freshiest proposal how a daily driving of a sport car should be, aganist the competition . That is the history of AR since day one!!! For real drivers l will mention to the cliche among us ..... YOU ONLY ARE A REAL PETROLHEAD IF YOU DRIVE AN ALFA ROMEO. BIG A LFAholick, since 1987 . Once driven never looked back. GREATINGS TO ALL THE ALFISTI OF THE PLANET!!!! From Crete island with respect to the pilots (drivers).
