Alfa Romeo's Giulia was highly anticipated, gets great reviews... but I've seen exactly 3 on the road to date. Wonder if everyone is afraid of the reliability issues.

They're still on the lots of dealers waiting to be sold. I've seen 2, 1 on the road and 1 at an auto show.

I should add they had a 0% financing deal the car... Not an offer made on a hot selling vehicle.

[aozer]

I've seen a decent amount. There are two in my office parking lot.

[Red Bread]

In the service department.

I'd have leased one if they'd brought the manual version here.

I've seen three different Giulia in my area. They have great paint jobs and great colors.
Think one saw my 235 and wanted to play - but my gf freaks.
Very Audi-esque to me - but I like it. I know I sound like a BMW fanboy, impressed how well the shape of the 3-series (340) are when u compare to other sedans

[Foggins]

I’ve seen a couple so far, but only the base model...I’ll admit if I was looking for a nice sporty 4 door sedan on a budget the base car would be on my list. Covered under warranty, very unique, etc...esp vs base 3 series, A4’s, etc...just too many of those on the road.

I've only seen a handful when I'm in the Seattle or Bay areas.

I see a fair number in metro Detroit but that's for obvious reasons. Likely manufacturer cars.

[GuidoK]

I've seen quite a few on the road, but I'm in Europe.
Still a 3 series/a4/c class sells 3 or 4 times as much in numbers and that will probably continue.
Alfa romeo has always been a fairly low volume seller compared to brands like bmw.

[allinon72]

They don't seem to be selling and I wouldn't be surprised if the model is discontinued in a few years.

Thats highly unlikely. Alfa has been making/selling in the D segment for a long time. They might change the name after this platform is phased out and adapt their pricing (the guilia is expensive compared to its predecessors) but they wont leave the D segment.

[Rh6363]

Yeah it was an option for me until they decided not to make a manual transmission one.

[Never_Enough]

I see them almost daily around here. Still don't like the rear

[Krstof]

Still never seen one to date.

[Red Bread]

I've seen a couple of 4f's, and a few dozen regular Giulias, but haven't seen a single Stelvio yet. Surprising, given the love for SUVs and that I see a few Maserati Levantes every day.

[uniqueMR]

I have only seen 1-2 times in Chicagoland

[Hagasan41]

Ironically there are 2 in my neighborhood. One is a QUADRIFOGLIO In Montecarlo Blue that I wouldn't mind taking for a spin...

[nujabes24]

Wish they had the Quadrifoglio in manual. If they did i would have gotten one. I can’t do automatic just can’t.

[2msport]

I've seen quite a few in socal. But then again it's CA

[BEM-S4]

See roughly one per day (not the same one) in the Main Line Philly area.

Saw a white Stelvio the other day too gotta admit it looked nice and I don't like white. May be worth a test drive. See the Jag most around here in terms of luxury CUV, followed by Macan.

I've seen two Stelvios (I'm mostly downtown/inside 635), so they're around. I feel about as 'meh' about it as I do the F-Pace. Not all that many Guilias, either; I average one every week or so, and one 4C every month or so. I have yet to see a Guilia QF in the wild.

Everyone: Keep in mind that the Alfa dealership network is still fairly limited. That's one reason they're still fairly rare. (The one here in Dallas is in a former Subaru dealership that's aged and, rumor has it, semi-cursed.) But another reason is that I don't think the 'average' consumer realizes Alfa is back in the U.S. with what are now multiple models -- and if that consumer does know, they likely have one of two mindsets:

- They aren't familiar with the product offerings because of past history, and/or
- They aren't considering Alfas because of that same past history.

It will take years for Alfa to overcome that stereotype -- and the Giulia reliability rumors are the worst possible thing that could have happened to Alfa's U.S. at this stage.
