Watch The Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio Take On The World (Almost)
Believe it or not, it’s been over a year and a half since Alfa Romeo first revealed the Giulia. And yet, it’s still not quite sunk in, has it? After all those years of rehashed front-wheel drive Fiats, suddenly we have an all-new, rear-wheel drive Alfa, sitting on a brand spanking new platform and available with a Ferrari-ish V6. It’s almost too good to be true.
With all that in mind, you can’t help but wonder where the top-of-the-line Giulia Quadrifoglio sits amongst its rivals. That’s what the guys over at Motor Trend wanted to find out, in this head-to-head battle. Since a ‘head-to-head’ doesn’t really work with four cars, the three rival cars - the BMW M3 Competition Pack, Cadillac ATS-V and Mercedes-AMG C63 - fought it out on track, with the winner sent to give the Alfa what-for.
Let the battle commence…
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

as a great man once said: “You can’t be considered a true petrolhead if you have not owned, or wanted to own, an Alfa Romeo.”. Only 3 cars really made me feel the want to own an Alfa; the utterly gorgeous Brera, the magnificent 4C, and this Giulia QV.
Still from a psychological point of view I cannot see myself putting so much cash on the table for an Alfa. Or for that matter a BMW or a Caddy. The C-Class is too small for that amount of cash. Audi? Where are you?
