I've had my Giulia QV for over 2 years now and I must say it's been a wild ride. The good - stunning design, incredible handling, and blistering acceleration that puts a smile on my face every time I get behind the wheel. The bad - the reliability has been hit or miss, with random issues popping up that require trips to the dealer. The ugly - some of the features feel like they're from a different era, with outdated infotainment and a sometimes clunky interface.

I've owned my Giulia Ti since 2017 and it's been a love-hate relationship. On one hand, I adore its style and performance - the V6 engine is a beast and the handling is sublime. The interior design is also top-notch, especially considering the price point.
However, reliability has been a major concern for me. I've had issues with the infotainment system freezing, and the previous owner mentioned problems with the dual-clutch transmission. Additionally, I've experienced some strange noises coming from the exhaust system.
I've also noticed that maintenance costs are higher than average, which might be due to the brand's reputation for being a bit more exotic.
On a positive note, I've found the Alfa Romeo community to be incredibly supportive and enthusiastic - it's like joining an exclusive club where everyone shares your passion.
Lastly, despite some reservations, I'd say my experience with Alfa Romeo has been worth it. The thrill of owning such a unique car is unmatched, and the owners' manual (which comes with the car) is actually quite comprehensive... for what it's worth.

I've had my Giulietta since 2015 and overall it's been a great experience. The good - incredible handling and braking, lovely styling that turns heads, and decent fuel efficiency. The bad - some reliability issues with the DCT transmission, occasional faults with the dashboard electronics. The ugly - some rather annoying rattles in the doors which I'm still trying to track down. Still, it's an Alfa Romeo so what did I expect?

I've had my Giulietta for 3 years now and I must say it's been a love-hate relationship. The Good: handling is sublime, engine sound is music to my ears. The Bad: reliability issues have left me stranded on the side of the road too many times.

I've had my Giulia Ti for 3 years now and I have to say it's been a wild ride. The good - the way it handles is sublime, the sound of that V6 is music to my ears and the design is stunning. The bad - the reliability has been sketchy at best, I've had to replace the serpentine belt twice in 2 years which is unacceptable for a car in this price range. And the ugly - the customer service from Alfa Romeo has been abysmal. They seem completely uninterested in helping with any issues you may have and it's like they're trying to sell you another car instead of fixing your existing one. Overall I'm still happy with my purchase but it's clear that there are some serious quality control issues at FCA that need to be addressed. Has anyone else had similar experiences with their Alfa Romeo?

I've owned an Giulietta for three years now and have to say it's been a real mixed bag. On the good side, it's a blast to drive and the handling is superb. The bad part is the reliability - I've had issues with the timing chain and electronics that have left me stranded on multiple occasions. And as for the ugly, I'd say the lack of standard features and poor ergonomics in the interior are major turn-offs. Overall, it's a great car if you're okay with the quirks, but not ideal for daily driving or long road trips.

I've had my Giulietta Ti for 6 months now and I must say it's been a mixed bag. On the good side, the handling is sublime and the design is stunning. The bad part is the reliability - I've already had to take it in twice for unrelated issues, which has left me a bit worried about long-term maintenance costs. And on the ugly side... well, let's just say Alfa's infotainment system is still woefully behind the times compared to other brands in its class.
