Re: Alfa Stelvio
reginos:Who really cares about Alfa Romeo anyway?
Alfa Romeo had it all in the 60s/early 70s and then they lost it all. Nowadays there are so many good cars around. Does anyone wait for Alfa Romeo to come back from the dead?
BTW I've been an Alfista myself and owned 4 in total, until I discovered BMW...then.

"Porsche....and Nothing else matters"
They fucked up with the 4C and they will do the same with the Stelvio and the Giulia.
The 4C had basically a more than one year long waiting list but the price was too high for the quality it offered, also dealers tried to make a buck or two with selling cars over MSRP. Also, dealer service (mainly Fiat and Alfa dealers) wasn't really great for such a small sportscar in the 60k EUR price range and I could continue with the issues they had.
Long story short: I don't get their strategy. The 4C could have been an amazing product for the masses, a small "Ferrari" for little money but they really didn't know how to market the car and to price it right.
Alfa Romeo first needed to improve their reputation and then ask higher prices. Something they apparently didn't (and still don't) understand.
