If they weren’t $140k and slow as F......they do look very cool.

They don’t compete at their price point at all.

That's because they're a Lexus.

I see you got the correct color too

My 4C is Basalt gray as my wife’s only stipulation when I ordered the car was “no red”. If that meant she wasn’t going to bitch and moan then no red it was.

I test drove one and liked it a lot but didn’t go with it for a couple reasons:

No AWD and I live in PA

I have a 5 and 9 year old and their associated stuff and mess.

I have a two car garage and with my wife’s car, my DD and the 4C that means my DD sits in the driveway. If I had a Giulia Quad and the 4C that would mean my wife’s car gets thrown out of the garage and that wouldn’t fly.

That meant really I would need to get rid of the 4C to justify it and keep my DD. I just love the 4C more as a special drive it because I want to kind of car.

I had a deposit down sight unseen on a Stelvio Quad but backed out when I couldn’t justify one keeping the 4C and piling miles on a Stelvio Quad as a DD.

I'd love a 4C!  Such a cool and beautiful little car.  I haven't had the chance to drive one though.

I had the choice on the lot between gray and red. The red is iconic but I was looking for something more stealthy. Most people don't know what an Alfa is and even those who do usually have no idea at all just how quick the Quads are.  It's the car equivalent of concealed carry.

I have the entry level 2013 C63. It’s a great GT. I like the CTS-V’s but would never own one. Maybe lease.

But for that kind of lease payment, I could get a CPO E63S, 997TT, Alfa (I’d lease that, too. It’s an Alfa...).

But those aren’t really GT’s.

S63 Coupe would be my choice of everything that’s been mentioned here.

I agree, the Giulia quad is actually faster than my 4C and can carry people and stuff!

The body work is beautiful and materials are cutting edge on the 4C and I really think it’s a bargain but it’s definitely an enthusiest car. It’s loud and spartan and I love that, my wife however does not.

If I was going to buy a Giulia I really like it in the Misano blue. Makes it a little less stealthy.. kind of like concealed carrying an engraved 1911 with ivory grips

2nd gen CTS-V coupe was one of the best looking and driving cars ever made.

Styling still looks like it could be rolling off the showroom floor in 2019.

I loved mine, plus, five five six horsepower. What's not to love?

I loved my Lexus GS400 even though it was a 2001 it was in my family since new. Even though it was under powered at 300hp it was quick and comfortable. I passed it on to my neice. It has 224k on it. Only thing that was ever replaced were the horrible Pirellis and the factory x pipe. The brakes were the only issue with calipers that would get pistons hung up. New or reman. It was an awesome car.
I still have my Caddy SRX even though it sits in the parking lot at my shop. The AWD was one thing that GM for right. It was one of the best vehicles i have driven in the snow. Unfortunately replacing the timing chain and ecu outweighs the worth of the vehicle.
Next was pro touring which is the vehicle in my avatar. The money spent is well beyond the cost of any current touring vehicle. It rides like a new car....not a new 68 but a new high end car. It has custom leather interior. An ungodly amount of horsepower out of a fuel injected big block...which used 3/4 tank of fuel in 42 miles
That being said I like the body lines of the Jaguar F type. That car is pure sexy to me. Especially in the British green
