I can see that as a viable option to a Macan. How's the reliability of the brand these days? Haven't really paid attention for a while but historically I don't think Alfas have ever been high on the list of problem free, reliable cars.

I didn't have the same experience . doesn't feel buzzy at all. And defenitely no wind noise. Drove over 600 miles since last week. No problems.

Tough to say. Pretty new model. I am aware of bad reliability on Italian cars lol. Mine is a 24 months lease. So not an issue. Drives well. Design beautiful . infontainment I would say 5 out 10. But yet again our 997 are not exactly a pinnacle of tech bliss. I rather have a car that drives great with ok tech vs. Hi-tech car that drives just okay. We also have a Q7 (wife/kids mobile) awesome tech but super boring.
