    How so? No doubting, Truly curious, since the e63 was an amazing car, I only sold it to get the wagon version.
    Always liked the Alfa, never driven one.

    It really is a phenomenal car. You can throw your kids inside, pick up groceries and drive it on the track. It’s an all around performer.

    We drove one of these with CC brakes and racing seats this past week, looking for an airport car to replace the AMG G that was totaled in Jan, and we were ...stunned. You simply have no idea unless you drive one. Has to be one of the best bargains out there no kidding. But on the one we looked at it smoked at start up like a fog machine. Salesman tried to explained they had just washed it. What utter ********. Form says it can be an issue, although no real problems with the Alfa that other manufactures have not experience. This car is simply a beast and you would never know it unless you drove it. I hated that it smoked...49k miles at about $45k.

    This blue car is the one to buy. Wish it was closer. I think we will flip back to the G Wagon for practicality. Do not overlook the Alfa. Badass sedan.

    Yeah it's something of a sleeper. People still ask what it is, assuming it's like an Alpina BMW 3 special edition.

    I'm at 19,800 miles now, just did the 20k mi service at Towbin Alfa last month.

    45k isn’t a bad price considering the Sparco seats are a $ 3500 option and the Brembo CCB’s are an $ 8,000 option
    I have the same spec and the car listed on sticker at a tad over $ 90k
    The QV’s are about $ 55k and up right now

    I still get a smile on my face looking at the backside of those seats. They are just so good looking.

    With prices of everything right now, what you get for ~$60k is a steal of the century!

    We all know what Ferrari engine is in there!

    I still look for stupid reasons to get out of the house just to drive it. This car is a beast in sheep’s clothing.

    Agreed, amazing what you get for the $$$. One of the few times where one feels like they are getting their moneys worth.

    It really does transform in particular in D or race mode.

    Thanks, not many can say they drove an Alfa Romeo for four years with only 73 cents per mile in depreciation!

    It really was a magical car to drive. Obviously I held out on my asking price for a long time (even though I was barely over Manheim wholesale) because I didn't exactly want to sell it yet, even though I was tight on parking spaces. It was like breaking up with a girl when there are no fights or problems! The breaking point was that I needed to get my second son's car finally, and unless I moved the Alfa to an off-site garage it would not have worked out. And then I knew that parking it somewhere else meant that I would almost never drive it.

    Well this is funny. they emailed me lowballs for months and then ended up with it after the auction… still an excellent condition and completely serviced car but it would have saved me a lot of headaches if they would have paid my last counter 6 mos ago.
