Alike the Porsche Cayman GT4: "We are also told that it [Alfa Romeo Giulia] will be offered exclusively with rear-wheel drive and a manual gearbox."
Well-well, weren't manual gearboxes "on their way out" according to BMW in 2013 (http://www.caradvice.com.au/253095/b...smissions-way/) ?

That thing looks HORRIBLE. That's what Levi was getting all excited about?

Rear definitely looks better than the front, but even then it's still bland to me. The front straight up reminds me of:
The only thing that MIGHT excite me about this car is that it'll undoubtedly make a great noise.

Looks like the cleft palate love child of an Audi A4 and an F30.
Boring design, though if the Quad truly has a Ferrari tuned V6 I bet it will sound pretty wicked - but I can't see myself buying it. The limited aftermarket support and Italian "quality" would like make your wallet weep.

I think the world as we know it is about to change
V6 is massaged by Ferrari engineers

Burn it with fire! Looks like a mishmash of various popular sedans without even a semblance of originality. Who designed this thing, Dr. Frankenstein?

Boring design? Kill it with fire??? WTF? Doesn't anyone else think it looks like F30 from the side view? Other than the Alfa nose, I like it. The proportions are spot on (IMHO). |

The mid-section of the car looks a lot like an F30 to me, the shape of the front does too if I squint hard enough
Also MT-only on the range topper deserves a standing ovation from the forums |

I think it looks horrible.
As for the car itself... modern Alfa is known to make some cheap interiors with crappy materials. Add in the unreliability of Italian cars, I doubt this car will be any different than previous cars.
