We like manual transmissions.
The triangle grill in the front ruins it for me. Also italian cars aren't very popular in the US.
Because they are literally not known around here. At all.
And the little knowledge of them is that they break down alot
Not any more than BMW Z3.
Yes but BMW has a much larger reputation for being the middle class luxury car of choice in the US.
its because Americans have shit taste and actually think this shit looks cool
The Cayman appeals to more to the type of person who would otherwise drive a 4C, as it is more comfortable, manual, and actually daily drivable. It's also reliable too, which cannot be said for really any FCA product.
Other than that, I've never seen an Alfa dealership before, so that, along with the normie fear of unreliability contributes to low sales. Fiat 500s are fucking everywhere though, and they're close enough to Alfa I guess.
Interesting you brought this up, I saw one parked at my local Home Depot this last Saturday. Needless to say I was surprised, but I do live next to a very nice area of Texas.
you don t need to see an alfa dealership . FIAT dealer is enough .
anyway they sold 6.084 alfas in 2017 , giulia and stelvio combined . good result for a brand that just came into the US imho . i guess with a bigger SUV coming in they will sell more . also they need to prove that it s reliable
