The worlds smallest V6 lol. Wasn’t it a 1.8?

They were not bad looking cars in the day, great seats. But I don’t think anything about them really stood out driving wise.

I dunno how good they were when new, but right around the time when I was looking for a winter beater (10 - 12 yrs ago now? gosh...), I had looked into the MX-3 Precidia as a potential candidate, and a Mazda service advisor friend told me to avoid them like the plague because by then, parts support has gotten quite poor. So I dropped the idea and went to look for something else.

Handling-wise, they seem pretty awesome though. There was a guy driving one of them at the autox back in the day, and the car certainly seemed capable.

Not a great price, but a decent one for the right person for a car you can easily say "try to find another one then!" to any naysayer lol

2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Awd Q4 Loaded - $25,995

Is the base Alfa any good? has anyone tried this? Im sooooooo bored of my Zzzzz camry i think i need something spicy in my life.

"This car did have an undercarriage damage (previous owner drove over a yellow curb at a very slow speed but caused engine damage and some chassis damage. Fixed perfectly at an ICBC shop with a brand new engine from Alfa Romeo and we have the ICBC Estimate to go along with your paperwork."

^^hahahahah run over a curb = new engine. Typical italian

They're reliable (esp. for an Alfa) aside from going through rod bearings faster than normal (iirc that's what dukes said at the meat iirc). They hover around $30k for a decent used 2017-2018. I think Alfa got most things sorted by MY2019 or MY2020.

These handle better than a 3 series based on the videos and publications I've come across.

fuck that mazzy is cheap.... easiest way fake it till you make it. All 20 year old dudes should buy this to score bitches with. Then set it on fire in an insurance scheme as soon as anything breaks.
