Boxman Neutral Newbie April 6, 2011 Share April 6, 2011 Comments: 1) Performance - 100 marks best in the world 2) Handling - 80 marks, cos i have never tried its limit. 3) Ride - 100 marks, cos i drive at 60kmh on left lane watching DVD. 4) Fun factor - 100 marks, i mean... duh... 5) Maintenance/Reliability - 99 marks, the 1 mark is lost cos it needs to be maintained.

John112 Neutral Newbie April 6, 2011 Share April 6, 2011 if alfa r so well praised, all beemers/audi will flood to alfa already Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Le_Stig Neutral Newbie April 6, 2011 Share April 6, 2011 if alfa r so well praised, all beemers/audi will flood to alfa already I beg to differ since your statement is fundermentally flawed... Ferrari is well praised too under the Supercars segment so are the other Supercar brands and yet we don't see the majority flocking to Prancing Horse showroom... Similar to Toyota being the most reliable car in the Japanese segment, but why people still buy other Jap cars like Honda, Mits and etc? The reason being? Each of his/her own. Everyone has their own perspective and may view thing differently from others. But then again, your statement being hypothetical since you indicated "if", then this has not happen yet. "If" and perhaps people may flock to buy Alfa if they are so well praised, again, this is also hypothetically speaking. But I know for sure I will flock to buy Alfa in the near future. Why? I simply love it! My gorjiam worth... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chinablue Clutched April 6, 2011 Share April 6, 2011 if alfa r so well praised, all beemers/audi will flood to alfa already alfas..it's about passion, as it seems to invoke a certain instinct in drivers to 'give it a good run' in the car, the looks of it is seductive and the sounds of it...like a symphony. bmw/audi/merc on the other hand is more about reliability, comfort and branding. i will pick an alfa over the 3 german marques, if i could afford one..
