I almost bought one.. Fun car.. but i'm glad i didn't...
When they first came out Alfa Romeo had some AMAZING lease deals on the Guilia... It was a 24-month lease with a crazy cheap price.

The Salt Lake dealer had a black/red Ti that I actually put money down on, then back out of. It was a fun car to drive, the interior was 'querky', and it handled great.

The problem was during my test drive the seat broke, the media system froze and the check engine light came on... all within about a block of the dealership. Even with all of that... it was a fun enough drive that i still put money down to hold the car while I thought about buying/leasing it 🙂

I ended up not getting it.

Today... Those $58k new 2017 Guiliai's are coming off their 24-month leases and are sell ng for sub-$25k w/under 15k miles. Reliability is killing the used-market value.

My tips if you decide to get one:

* Lease.... get rid of it when the Warranty is up!!
* Make sure it has the 8.8" display. The standard 6.5" looks weird in the dash.
* Get the Red Interior. IT'S AN ITALIAN SPORTS SEDAN!!!
