Re: New Giulia laps the ring in 7.39
RC:Prices for 4C in Germany have kind of dropped lately, even official dealers sell new cars for up to under 8k EUR under the new car price tag, which is surprising. In the past, they sold the cars over MSRP.
It's not surprising really as the market for 2 seat sports cars is tiny despite what forum enthusiasts like to think Even with the low production numbers Alfa are making there are still more cars than buyers at present on the used market.
Car companies simply cannot survive producing this type of product alone unless they have a parent group with deeps pockets and a lot of technology they can access off the shelf. It is almost amusing reading Alfa enthusiast forums as they are horrified by the price of the Giulia QV (even though it is apparently offering performance to rival or beat the M3/4) and the prospect of Alfa making SUV's yet few of them buy the cars new and prefer to wait until they have taken a sizeable depreciation hit before picking them up for a much reduced price. The irony that this is a model for the failure of the brand seems lost on many of them
