Sorry for the low quality pics, I’ll do better ones at the first occasion, this is my car
Love the interior, really good looking design there.
Nice Giulietta! I love the dials - what diesel do you have in it?
Also: Down with the Sickness in the Radio?

1.6 110hp, for what I do is more than enough , with the roads we have a powerful engine is just a waste of money, not considering the taxes and the insurances that comes with higher HPs.
If you like alfa romeo (based on your avatar you do) you should really try the DNA, is like 3 cars in one
Did you study the pic? lol, yeah, is the right song.
It says ‘Down with the’ right in your face (also: good taste!)
I drive the old 147 1.6TS (some threads below…) with 120hp, so i don’t have the DNA Button But I have a engine that has a magnificent sound, i love Alfas for that. They sound beautiful, look beautiful and are good to drive
I would like the DNA button in my car, combined with a turbo of course… but i would drive in dynamic all the time!

No I bet you won’t, you go from 14-18km/Liter of the N to 5-8km/l of the Dynamic… it’s fun, even the wheel and the brakes changes but good luck with the gas.
this model is supposed to cost around 25k€, I paid less than 19k just because I made the pre-order like 1 year before was officially out, is already 3 years old, I took a risk because I saw the car only on a monitor but I was not wrong
I wanted the quadrifoglio verde but I can’t spend all that money, 235HP :Q…
I drive the 1.6TS, I am used to have 10km/l Economy (or 9.2L/100km)
The small 1.6 Diesel can be this thirsty? So better don’t strap the Novitec Powerrail on it… gives you 30hp more and more thirst.
I think my next car will be a 159 TBi…
never buy a 159. it’s one of the worst cars i’ve ever driven. handling is wrong, seating is wrong, gearbox is wrong. don’t be fooled by the looks.
the car is supposed to be a sportier mid size saloon, but it wants to handle like a jumbo jet.
@nixiam: 19k is a great value for that car. i think that if you sold it now , you could get more

Yeah its thirsty but omg, in dynamic is a totally different car, I tought was just a marketing thing to sell more cars and I didn’t believe it till I experienced myself.
I’m actually thinking to go for a powerrail 5, it should give me 15hp which is just more fun for low gas usage.

I like the exterior design of the 159, it looks better than my car and I was undecided but I had the same feeling when I tried it, not sportier which is not a problem if you just want a nice looking car but inside is rough, no details, way too much bad looking plastic and an engine thirsty as hell so I choose the giulietta.
You can actually get the 159 to be really good but need too much work (speaking money here ), our police is actually using this car.
i thought only carabinierii used 159s. they are really annoying. I was passind through milano once and the police stopped me for not having the right position behind the steering wheel. WTF??? they didn’t fine me, but really…WTF? it’s not my fault german cars have lower seats.
