My car - Alfa Romeo Giulietta Quadrifoglio Verde

Hi everybody!
My name’s Andrea, from Italy, and here’s my car:


It’s got a 1750 cc inline 4 cylinder engine, with a max power of around 235 hp.

Good afternoon everybody and see you in other topics of the forum!

Wooooo … Respect!

I wish we had Alfas in the US. Supposedly they are coming back in 2013.

Also is there any significance to Green Four-leaf clover name or is it just another name?

You’ll found something in there. It’s not just any name.

Different suspensions, different brake system (from Brembo), different engine (in my case, it’s an inline 4 cyl. 1750 cc plus one turbo, for a power of 235 horses).
Engine’s placed on front and there’s a front wheel drive.

At the moment, there’s a Quadrifoglio Verde version for the Mito too, that is an inline 4 - 1.4 litres with one turbo for about 170 bhp (similar to, but more powerful then the one on the Abarth 500).
Rumors tell they’re planning a Quadrifoglio Oro (golden four-leaf) for the Giulietta model, with around 300 bhp.

Agreed! I love Alfas and cannot wait to get the chance to own a new one.

Well, now in the States you have the new Dodge Dart that uses CUS-WIDE chassis, in other words the Giulietta chassis, but longer and wider than the original. Dart has 3 inline-4 engines (2 Chrysler, 2.0 160hp and 2.4 180hp, both with FIAT MultiAir technology, and the 1.4 turbo 160hp from FIAT Grande Punto, Alfa MiTo etc.)manual 5 speed or sequential 7 speed or auto 9 speed, and a beautiful interior. They say it’ll costs 16000$ for the base version (still loaded with features and with the 2.0 Tigershark)
