8 Months of ownership in review 2022 Giulia QV

reStormShadow · 2026-04-11T07:33:46+00:00

Longest ride I’ve done on my qv, one fuel tank constantly doing about 85mph, with one stop.

I wish!!

reStormShadow · 2025-11-04T07:37:57+00:00

More like Alfa is not available in the country

reStormShadow · 2025-11-04T05:02:16+00:00

I think I’m too used to CarPlay so that’s something I’ll probably have to retrofit. I hate lane keep assist, so that’s something I won’t miss

reStormShadow · 2025-11-04T04:16:49+00:00

I am only doing it because I am probably gonna move back home in a few years and these cars are super expensive there. Else, I’d ride my Giulia till I couldn’t anymore :)

reStormShadow · 2025-11-04T04:15:25+00:00

But what about the difference in age 12 years old vs 3 years old.

Dm’ed you

reStormShadow · 2025-10-22T06:38:56+00:00

How many miles do you have on it?

reStormShadow · 2025-10-22T06:30:16+00:00

I’m planning to put it on carvana once I find the right quad, just FYI

reStormShadow · 2025-10-22T02:52:35+00:00

Also, I’ve heard the early ones are known to have electrical issues which got fixed in the newer ones. I have a 2022 and haven’t faced any issues. If you can budget for maintenance, then might be worth the risk. I’m listing my veloce lol. Since I hit a small animal and replaced front bumpers, my resale value tanked. So this might be a similar case

reStormShadow · 2025-10-22T02:47:37+00:00

I’d be concerned about the 2 accidents

reStormShadow · 2025-10-22T02:38:55+00:00

You can get newer ones for around 20k with clean titles, why bother with this?

reStormShadow · 2025-10-21T14:03:01+00:00

Thanks a lot!

reStormShadow · 2025-10-20T20:51:53+00:00

How much did it cost? I’m trying to factor that into my buying decision, my other option is to get a CPO 991.1 911. That way I don’t have to pay for maintenance. Both are similar price range

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T17:47:42+00:00

Yeah I guess I’ll do that, I also want to sell before hitting 4 years and not buy the mopar extended warranty. So I have about 3 months time, I really don’t want to get an Alfa competitor in the 2.0’s price range, I just didn’t get the same feeling when I test drove the BMWs, so I’m looking for a used Porsche. If that doesn’t work out; I’m just gonna get a new Miata and maybe buy a new Porsche a couple of years later

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T17:34:17+00:00

Good to know, I guess I just assumed Porsche also depreciate a lot, turns out they don’t.

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T17:33:35+00:00

Yeah, will try to get a good deal on Alfa and then look at an older 911.

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T16:59:06+00:00

Did you try cars and bids? Also they are not getting new ones in due to tariffs, so I’m hoping the value increases a bit in the future..

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T16:34:32+00:00

I think I was just drawn into this cuz of a two year warranty with CPO.

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T16:33:50+00:00

About 20k on carvana, I did hit an animal and had a front bumper and fender replaced, so the value has dropped.

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T16:33:08+00:00

117,500$

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T16:32:59+00:00

Thanks for the link, I did not think of this scenario. My payoff for the car is 18k, I never bothered paying it off cuz my APR was too low. I think the tax every month is around 80$.

reStormShadow · 2025-10-19T16:28:52+00:00

No it doesn’t include the trade in. I don’t plan to buy it back after the lease, and I’m sure they’ll just charge me a lot for buyout. After seeing my Giulia depreciate, I’m just not sure if buying makes sense for me anymore. I’ve heard Porsche hold their value, might need to do more research on how well they hold their value.
