Sweet mother of the Buddha...I hope the interior is as nice looking.

As I said earlier, all cars basically look the same.

Agreed, I have reflected upon this for a long time.

They have streamlined all cars into looking the same. Very boring.

Only the concept cars look interesting then the finished product looks the same as any new car.

If in doubt, just look at all the pics posted in this threads, case in point.

All cars today tend to have the same design theme---but designers have to work around today's safety parameters as well. Which is why the high beltlines, the hoods, and rears, etc.
also, if you look in the past---almost all the cars of each respective decade tended to look the same. And in Europe from the 50s-60s, even until the early 70s, almost all the cars had those "bug eyes" headlights.

Leave it to [the flotsam of] a bodybuilding board to obsess about the aesthetics of the sheet metal and say nothing about what makes it go.

Pantywaists who won't change their own damn oil!

Over the years, I have come to realise that girly men form the backbone of getbig. Luckily there are a few rugged studs like you and I who are not afraid to spend an hour (or a million) in the workshop doing 'stuff'

Strongly agree. A man's virility is measured by the number of his unfinished projects!

Yes but even so..

Look at Volvo, Saab and a beetle for example. They looked very distinguishable in the 70 and 80's.

Hahahahahah, if that's the case, then I'm King Fucking Kong! I've got so many unfinished projects, that I have to make projects for my projects.

yeah, but this new Giulia is apparently derived from the Maserati Ghibli platform.

I work down close to a Maserati dealership'they sell many exotics'but Maserati is main car sold,they sound mean going down the hyway...the ghibli is nice looking got so/so reviews tho..any smaller version of the frontline model gets certain aspects off negative than the larger or $$ version same thing with the jag's version..

The Quadrifoglio Verde gets a new 3.0-liter turbocharged V6 petrol engine tuned by Ferrari that's rated at 503hp.

And where else do you think that engine may go? A entry level mid engine car by Ferrari...named after Ferrari's son, just like before.

I don't think they will put a V6 in a Ferrari in the near future. However, I will predict that the Giulia will be a hit for Alfa Romeo.

Same shit sandwich, just with a different badge affixed to it.

When will your morons realize this? Cars stopped being unique a long, long time ago.

Take it from this guy, he's owned several exotics and restores antique leathers .

I thought it looked classic and purposeful like a 240Z. Large tack, large speedometer, and a tri spoked steering wheel.

We are aware of the Plymouth with the George Jetson steering wheel.
