    Saw two on the street today, and they look better in the wild then they look on the dealer lots. Lower than I thought, but I guess that is because they were lined up next to Giulia's at the dealers.

    So 2 Giulia's and 2 Stelvio's on the road today. I guess they are starting to sell :)

    Can't your dealer find you one in the AR network and trade for it?

    Weird, my Alfa dealer went out of their way to find what I wanted and work a deal that was mutually beneficial...

    I have 4 dealers nearby that I asked to find me a white/red awd ti sport. None have ever called my back and that's been my typical car dealer experience over the 40 yrs I've been buying cars. Not my favorite profession to deal with.

    Combined US Alfa sales should be well over 20,000 if they keep this rate, another all time record. Giulia still outselling the Stelvio.

    Yes the Giulia is still out selling the Stelvio and by a significant amount, something seems does to be a tad askew, no?

    Editor-in-Chief's Note: Alfa Romeo Stelvio Update. After 1450 miles in my new Stelvio, I can safely say that the dynamic ability of the machine is even more impressive than when I first picked it up. It feels exactly like a sport sedan, it is light on its feet, responsive, and the steering is truly exceptional. I have started to put my foot in it a little, too, and the responsiveness of the engine/gearbox is more than decent, but I'll have more to say on that when I start to hammer it with frequency. There are a few quirks with the Stelvio to be sure, but no problems. The shifter engagement demands that you be more deliberate at times, especially when maneuvering between gears while pulling into a parking spot. And I am pleased with the audio system, too, which sounds excellent. (Full disclosure, I am not that demanding with a sound system in a vehicle; if it does what I want it to do, I'm happy). Needless to say, I have traveled too few miles to report anything beyond my initial experiences with the Stelvio, but so far it has exceeded my expectations. -PMD

    The steering in the Guilia is first rate. Given the chassis is the same for the Stelvio I would expect that.

    Just traded in my new Audi Q5 TDi for a new Stelvio Ti, like it so far, will report back after more miles. Disappointments so far are the Navigation and the upgraded Harmon Kardon stereo.

    No traffic for one, but I'll call Sirius to add hopefully. BIGGEST gripe is that you can't zoom out any more than maybe a 1/4 mile, with my Audi I could see my route and traffic ahead 10 miles if I wanted. Great when you need to get to the airport or other and need to decide which route and need/want to avoid traffic delays.

    Primarily because i don't want to fart around with my phone, I don't use Waze and i thought if I bought a $53k car that it would come will very good Nav.
