After months of indecision and mental gymnastics followed by the search for just the right car, on July 9, 2021 I bought a used 2018 Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Sport with 47,912 miles for $31,320.04 out the door. The original window sticker MSRPed for $52,340. While I considered and could afford going new, the $21,000 in depreciation in three years gave me serious pause. Now in my mid-30s I felt I was in a position to comfortably afford the car and the expected large upcoming maintenance and reliability nightmares. This particular car had one previous owner and was titled in West Virginia. I searched for months on end for a Giulia that was in the Ti Sport trim, in Misano Blue, with the (rare) performance package, at a reasonable price, and within like 300 miles of where I live in Maryland. This one was traded into a dealership in northern Virginia and I went out there the same afternoon I found the listing. The only two options this doesn't have that I wanted are the leather covered dash and upper doors and yellow calipers.

I'm not a person that switches cars often. My first S2000 met its demise on a cold January morning highway ramp as I learned first-hand about the threat of liftoff oversteer that the AP1s were susceptible too. This remains the only accident I've ever been in. Because the S2000 is such an amazing car though, I took the insurance payoff and bought another, back when they were still affordable, for something like $16,500. Drove that car for four years and 40,000 miles before trading it in on the Focus for $15,000; essentially no depreciation, and still one of the worst financial decisions I've ever made aside from buying $PLTR near ATH ?. The only reason I traded it in was because my wife and I were trying to have kids and I had to do the adult thing and trade it in for something with a rear seat (RIP my youth).

Since the purchase, I've been keeping a detailed record every time I fill up with gas or have a maintenance or repair expense. Admittedly, because I work from home since COVID I don't drive as much as I used to. But this is my daily driver and only car. In the year since I bought it, I've driven about 4,400 miles, bought 236.8 gallons of premium costing me $1,039.21 (average $4.39/gal). My average distance between fill ups has been 198.6 miles with a minimum of 112 (to top off before a trip) and a max of 258. My minimum miles per gallon on those intervals was 11.83 and the max was 20.71. You'll note from the window sticker this car is EPA rated at 23 city/ 31 highway, if that gives you any hints about how I drive it.

EC had learned that Peter might be willing to sell one (or more) of his Alfas. We knew nothing of years, models, or most importantly, condition. It had also been indicated to EC that Peter was rather secretive about his possessions, and allowed few people into the building. At this point, the best news was that Peter was expecting us, and that we could at least have a conversation.

As much as I hated spending money at his store, I used to enjoy talking to Peter. We would have conversations about things Alfa and personal. He used to love riding his bicycle long distances and would tell me how I needed to start exercising more before I get older and other life advice. He may have been running a business but it was also a passion and seemed like his social center.

Few brands represent the Corps of the Carabinieri as Alfa Romeo does, and the brand would not have been the same without its lead role in the Armed Forces. A section of the Museum tells this story with six cars belonging to the Carabinieri collection.

Whether it be a Alfa Romeo Stelvio Ti or a new Alfa Romeo Giulia, we have the Alfa Romeo you've been searching for. If speed and power are important to you, our team is proud to offer one of the highest trim levels Alfa Romeo produces, the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio and Alfa Romeo Stelvio Quadrifoglio. For almost 100 years, Quadrifoglio has represented the best of Alfa Romeo both on the track, and on the road.

Alfa Romeo of Portland has been the sole dealership for used and new Alfa Romeo in the Bangor, Portland, Cape Elizabeth, Falmouth, and Yarmouth, Maine, areas since 1970. We are a full-service dealership that sells used and new cars, certified pre-owned cars, and we have a repair and maintenance shop and financing department on-site. We want your experience to be positive, whether you are visiting us for a new car or a repair.

Our goal at Centerline International has been the same since 1978 - to provide the Alfa Romeo parts you need, offer the best customer service, have a little fun, and enjoy our own Alfas. We offer the best quality parts and accessories at the best price - whether you own a classic Alfa Spider or GTV, a "modern classic" like the GTV/6 or Milano, or a new 4C, Giulia, Stelvio, or Tonale. We have extensive experience driving, maintaining, and modifying all Alfas, so we know what works and what doesn't. Sometimes cheaper is out there, but if we won't use a part on our car, we don't sell it to you for your car. And - we have the parts - most orders are shipped out the same day from our extensive stock of parts, not drop-shipped to you from a distant warehouse.

But then we also tried to transfer all that we learned on track together to the road cars. So we have developed, thanks to Sauber Technologies, important projects for them. We have been acting as an R&D department for Alfa Romeo.

It detracts from the serious commitments of actual works projects, and makes a bit of a mockery of team identity to fans. It would have been frankly stupid for F1 to be in a situation where an Alfa Romeo team was entered next year but it was actually a different team to the one that's existed for the last few years. And in hindsight, it is regrettable that 'Alfa Romeo' has hoovered up a bunch of race start and points stats, as it wrongly inflates Alfa's own F1 legacy while simultaneously detracting from Sauber's.

The performance specification of each 2024 F1 car, which should have been set months ago, is far more important to its function than the visual concept. Gary Anderson explains what the teams need to prioritise, and where the chasing pack can take inspiration from Red Bull 006ab0faaa
