Default Alfa Romeo Stelvio. Have you seen it?

This is a head turning beauty. Fantastic design and plenty fast. Has anyone taken one of these for a test drive?

Wait until you see the Quadrofoglio. I had the opportunity to see it at the NAIAS and it’s a beautiful brute. Flared fenders, wide tires, and looks fast standing still.

Build quality didn't impress me. When the salesman offered to show me it on the lift- kind of reminded me of Yaris. Lots of exposed sheet metal etc

Not my style- but a nice car I would imagine ?

I saw one at the Greenwich show July of last year. The local dealer has quite an array of them now. I think I've only seen one on the road that didn't have a dealer plate on it. FWIW, Consumer Reports hasn't been terribly kind to the marque so far.

I've seen several on the road and in person, and although they look good they're a little smaller in the rear than I thought it would be. I'm sure the Quadrofoglio will look amazing in person. However, if they're reliability is anything like the sedans no thanks..

I took a close look at the Stelvio a while back. We liked a lot about it, but for a variety of reason it just isn't what we were looking for. The interior and infotainment system isn't my cup of tea and yes, the brands history in the U.S. and long term outlook for the brand was a big factor too. The dealer, a fairly large one as far as AR/Maserati dealers go has aggressive pricing on them and a good selection.

I went into an auto parts store yesterday and said to the salesman " would you give me a rearview mirror for my Yaris ? " and he said " ok, that's a fair trade"

Which sedan are you speaking off? I have a 17 giulia quadrifoglio with about 4k track miles and not one issue, not does the 15 4C, one of my track friends bought one after he drove mine and tracks the car too.
do you own one ?
