I left BMW for the Giulia...

I had a 2011 335 with sports package, staggered wheels, etc. Loved that car. Replaced it with the 435 Grand Coupe with full M-Sport package including suspension and exhaust. Loved that car even more than the 335. Was working with BMW dealer to replace the 435 when I heard about Alfa being back in the US. Drove a Giulia and immediately canceled my BMW plans. As much as I liked my BMW's, I really am amazed at the Giulia. Can't stop driving it.. want to drive it everyday.. It is incredibly fun and exciting to drive. And it is just the 4 cyl 2.0. Admittedly, have less than 5000 miles on it, but NO problems or issues at all. My Giulia is a 2018 Ti Sport AWD with Sport Performance package (LSD, 19" wheels, adaptive suspension, etc.). Vesuvio Grey with Red leather. Body panels and hood are aluminum, car is relatively light which contributes to the performance and "nimble" handling. Of course I leased it (just in case). The only downside is the exhaust note is relatively tame, but at least it's not piped through the speakers.
