.............................................................
Say hello to the most extreme Alfa Romeo ever released - the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio GTAm! It’s the most expensive Alfa you can buy, and Mat’s getting ready to put it through its paces to see whether it’s just style over substance!
So under the bonnet, you’ll find… a 2.9-litre V6, just like in the standard Giulia QV?! However, it does produce 30hp more, so you’re treated to 540hp & 600Nm of torque.
Not impressed yet? Well trust us, there’s SO much more to the GTAm than a slight power increase! The question is, is it really worth the eye-watering £155,000 price tag? You’ll have to stick with Mat to find out!

Is this the greatest performance saloon in the world? LIKE if you agree, or COMMENT with what you'd choose instead!
Yess the Alfa is the best :)
M3/M4 competition.
I'd rather have the BMW M5 CS instead. Like if you agree..👌
No, Dacia Sandero is the greatest.
I would choose an M5 competition or an RS7 Sportback instead of the Alfa Romeo.
Lets take this Alfa to the Autobahn!
It's going to be good 😁
Do it!!
Yes...do it guys
yes plz!!
@@user-vi5wz7jn2q it's ugly
Congratulations you finally found a diffuser that actually diffuses 😂
992 gt3?
czcams.com/video/nPJpYEm8b2E/video.html
can someone explain what diffuser do?
@@adibafiq6945 When you're going at high speeds or on track, the diffuser on your car helps distribute air underneath, whether it's going up, down, or in fucking circles depends entirely on the shape, size, and functionality of your diffuser, they also help in adding downforce. The other reason to have a massive diffuser is to look cool, e.g. Lambo Centenario.
@@adibafiq6945 It improves the aerodynamics of the car
'A diffuser, in an automotive context, is a shaped section of the car rear which improves the car's aerodynamic properties by enhancing the transition between the high-velocity airflow underneath the car and the much slower freestream airflow of the ambient atmosphere.'
Alfa kills them all in the aesthetics department. This car looks ABSOLUTELY amazing.
The rims are just pure BUTTER!!!!
Agreed. Those wheels are incredible and I wish I could put them on my GTI.
It looks weird
Alfas beat them in sound as well
@@eriktenhag2022 but not in styling
Imo the front is horrible and overstyled. The rest of the car looks good tho. I think a GT3 looks way better
this has to be one of the most aesthetically pleasing cars ever manufactured 😲
It will be a collectible car in 30 years.
The looks, sounds and colour of this car is all perfect 🤩
That colour is 😍😍😍
But not €180k perfect.
@@bennilasvegas if u have that sort of money ita pocket change
@@bennilasvegas people just dont understand that the price is just because its limited to 500 cars.
czcams.com/video/nPJpYEm8b2E/video.html
Car collectors when they see this car be like: A FINE ADDITION TO MY COLLECTION!!!
And then put it in a garage and never drive it :'(
@Ty Ty Apparently you've never heard of people like Shmee lmao.
Change profile pic, it's goofy looking
@Ty Ty The Camry is a Toyota, so "camry or toyota" doesn't make sense. Seems like you are the one who knows nothing about cars. Also, why do you think car collectors only buy Bugattis and Rolls Royces? That's bullshit.
@@JimBob-ez3ue Exactly, haha :D
12:36 The price of this car 📈 when people find out Kimi and Antonio helped develop the chassis. Especially now that he announced his retirement.
They are all sold out. So sure The price will go up 🚀
Dream car for me! Absolutely top notch in every aspect! Masterpiece
That's one amazing sounding V6!
XJ220, All Busso's engines, SLK43 AMG, Camry TRD, Audi RS4/RS5, New Ford GT, Ferrari 296 GTB, Maserati MC20, Maserati Merak, Ferrari 246 Dyno, Citroen SM, VAG 2.5, 2.7, 3.0 TDI, Ford Mondeo ST220. Mitsubishi V6 on Galant, Pajero, FTO, GTO and... Lancer. They all sounds incredible!!!
it is also a turbo, so it's even more astonishing!
@@skillandluck Lancer?
@@pantherdxn4835 yeah, 1.5 Mitsubishi V6))
@@ilmelangolo I'm forgot Mazda V6 on MX-3 and MX-6
The colour is fantastic, sounds amazing and goes like it should.
4.6s to 60 is laughable when an RWD M3 can do it in 3.6 all day and not on a track.
Red or orange would be great
@@VanguardX the stock quadrifoglio goes from 0-100 in 3.9 seconds.. go and try to launch a racing car and then start talking.. That alfa goes AT LEAST 3.6 seconds if launched by a professional driver
Look at that gt3, Mat launched it 0-100 with 4.6 seconds or something, but the best launch 0-100 it had was 3.4 seconds
@@5shifts it's ugly
@@saidalas7763 i don't really care ngl
The sound of this car is definitely epic 😍😍😍
Yesss finally, a good car.
Haha I knew as soon as you said it was "expensive" that it was gonna be a little over 100,000. Man in Australia the minimum price for a standard Giulia Quadrifoglio is $156,000.
I wish the GTAm was that much in Australian Dollars. It's bloody $300,000 here.
Might as well buy a ferrari at that price
You can say whatever you want but you gotta recpect that alfa trying to return to the preformance game again
wonderful comment my friend...however, just to let you know, it Shook Up this segment [which it created many years ago] with the Guilia QV that gave the Germans a Huge fright. It has won More awards than any of the other brands ever since its launch in 2015.
;)
@@edwardabrahams2353 oh yeah i know about it that car was my dream car along with the 4c and it’s but the gtam replaced it for how beautiful it looks and preformance
Yeah good they don’t just make 4 pot hatchbacks this is like a m3 competitor
@@saidalas7763 boet, do you have any idea What you are talking about?!
@@saidalas7763 i can recpect your opinion on the ugliness of some of there cars,and true they should’ve made the 4c qv thats is actually the ultimate 4c and the most beautiful one in my opinion along with the gtam
Love Alfa’s. It’s like nothing else on the road. Alfa cars ages soooo well
Esthetically speaking or mechamically speaking?
@@ssssssss6889 mechanically they are fine. I switched from BMW to Alfa because BMW reliability is a bit shit and their newer cars look shit to go along with that.
@@ssssssss6889 and aesthetically to top the other reply because well, just look at it
I had a C4 in front of me the other day. It looked more like a Ferrari than a Ferrari for some reason.
@@ssssssss6889 Financially maybe not so great as people still get stuck with opinions that Alfa’s are not reliable but they are such a beautiful cars you can forgive them a lot.
My mom has the 2.0l turbo Giuliano and it’s pretty quick, and beautiful. I always wanted the quadrifolio since it came out. This is my new dream
That beautiful color enhances the amazingness of such car even more❣️🤯
I've been wanting to see a review on one of these for a while
@Rita 25 y.o - check my vidéó why you comment under ugly cars?
an italian wanted to see this video? how rare lmao
@@saidalas8381 there you are again, hater
@@Delitor here you are again fanboy, liking your own comments
@@saidalas8381 im not even liking my own comments. Want me to send a screenshot?
Thats pretty cool, hilarious though how it has 5 doors and no backseats
Indeed, you'd wonder why they didn't make it a three door to make it stiffer 🤔😀🤘 ...
Yea, and it would have looked much nicer as a two door.
I believe the GTA has the rear seats.
@@tanner1ie 4 door cars are actually stiffer because of the big beams that separate front and back :).
@@TheCluesRNTheBlues I'm sure it does, but they could make more of an effort to make the GTA and GTA M different, given the high price of both 🤔😀 .
How awesome that looks. I’m at loss for words.
Hey matttt, I was having a crappy day, than you looking like a serial killer as you did that turn around and jumped on it and let off that maniacal laugh made me spit out my soda. Beautiful color, car is killer. Wheels just butter, I have orig 505hp version with a tune, I love it. That exhaust looks and sounds epic. Thanks again for the content, love the channel.. 🍻
Italians man. How can you hate them? Masterclass in football, cuisines and especially cars!!!!
not in football or cuisine. the germans on football and french on cuisines.
@@niccolomachiavelli8763 umm excuse me? Who’s the current euro champions? and French cuisines? Pizza, pasta, Italian wine, gelato, espresso, tiramisu and etc! French cuisines my ass, it has got nothing on the Italians!
@@1990Thunderbolt italians only have pasta. french food is ON ANOTHER LEVEL. "italians are current euro champs" doesnt mean shit cus their teams dont do anything in ucl or uel. the serie a sucks.
@@niccolomachiavelli8763 you still have to respect their national team for their accomplishments and it’s not like bundesliga is fun to watch either when all Bayern do there is farming! At least serie a got abit interested now that inter became champions! Heck I’ll take pasta over any French cuisines anyday as well!
@@niccolomachiavelli8763 OMG HAHA
wow this guy really does love his job. we're just getting content everyday now. best part of my mornings tbh
@Rita 25 y.o - check my vidéó stop commenting under ugly cars
I LOVE It 😻 this it’s special , and will be better over the years!
That exhaust is BEAUTIFUL 😍
Would love to have a review of the Maserati mc20 as well that car seems incredible
It’s 200000 and has a V6
Yes, we need more Maseratis here. Even the Ghibli facelift should be reviewed.
@@betterbeavailable the ghibli looks good. The Giulia is ugly
Track comparison with the new m5 cs would be epic!!
Nah
This should be compared to m3. Not m5. M5 is in another class of car.
But alpha is a little bit expensive actually, so we can compare the m5cs with this alpha 😅
I was thinking of the Jaguar XE SV Project 8. Both are track-focused saloons.
This car is baby for m5 cs
a visually stunning car, everything is just perfect
I would almost never choose green for a car, but this car looks gorgeous in green.
What a beauty! Among the performance sedans out there. This is the most beautiful followed by the M5 CS. But no one comes close to how nice the exhaust sounds on the Alfa😍
I think the m5 sounds better, it’s got a v8 compared to this v6.
@@overspecced for a v8, its honestly not my cup of tea. It's not as angry as the Alfa even if the Alfa has a v6. And for a V6, it is pretty good. An E39 M5 even sounds better than the current M5 cuz of its turbos.
@@martsmarts an M5 with the same exhaust as this alpha sounds better
The jaguar project 8 beats the alfa in probably everything but it is 2 times de price
@@lhd4278 I forgot about that. Yes, the Jag sounds better indeed. Looks wise I'll give to the Alfa, but in this spec if it's only a 2 seater, I'll take the M5 CS (If only I had the money)
That sound is amazing❤️❤️🥵🥵
Bro u just summoned a bot with ur comment
@@ibraben4146 ugly cars summon this bot Toyota Yaris gr had it too
So gorgeous!
Green on that looks excellent. I just recently learned about this 2.9 liter v6 and am quite intrigued. I am far from purchasing one yet but these make my "someday maybe" list. I like the lower tier trim but with this TT2.9 liter v6.
Saw this car in bicester the other day, exact plate and everything, really is a small world what a gorgeous motor
My love for this car is endless
Kimi's reaction to Matt's avoid rating - FOR WHAT!!!
You know, I envy you for driving expiriences with this car. Pure emotions!
I see 3 of these all together in the overtaking lane on the m20, they looked great!!
When Alfa initially revealed this car, they mentioned a few times that this “will be a future collectible” which I think they use as reasoning to sell it at that price, plus by saying that it’s going to be a collectible, I think the target audience is different and therefore won’t have as much competition than a comparable car, as in their eyes this car is a “collectible”, but since an M4 isnt, it won’t interest them
Do you think this car is good looking? If yes, add the word Eyes at the end of your username, haha.
@@saidalas8381 you sound like your eyes are barely operational bud. Go get some glasses, you’re tripping.
@@ctcdarkness I have 20/20 both eyes. Tasteless fanboy that's almost blind.
@@saidalas8381 really bad opinion, this is definitely a top 3 best looking modern 4 door car
@@saidalas8381 Please, please tell what, in your opinion, is a "good looking car".
If the Giulia GTA isn't good looking for you, I simply can't imagine which car is.
looking forward to having this thing be delivered in December!!!!!
Just WOW ! Absolutely stunning Alfa Gulia. Solid build by team Alfa so is the price also. Would personally go into Porsche for that price. Enjoyed the presentation and video. Thank you. Cheers
" Because I'm a professional" right after he sat down near a loud exaust, gotta love mat's jokes
it seems that luxury sedans are taking on supercar tints and i love it.
M5
Giulia
M8 (IT'S A GT actually )
AMG GT63
7:53 it's also because after you have time to step away from a project you realize things like "oh, I could have done it much better if I just instead of "
I know no manufacture (or company for that matter) does this, but stepping away and coming back later can be one of the best processes for improvement.
I totally loved the exhaust note amazing
Matt has just blessed us, on a Sunday nog al.
Love the exterior color(Looks like the british racing green),the alloys are brilliant and the sound of the exhaust for an Alfa Romeo is mentally loud and good sounding.
It only comes in three colors. The colors of Italian flag-red, green, white.
I love how he laughed at the price 😂
Really dig the look and that colour.. looks a beast !
Thing looks absolutely sick!
My first car ever was an Alfa, still have one after having owned different models, and this car seems to be incredible.
One day for sure in the near future, either this one or the Porsche 911GT3RS.
That beast sounds and looks absolutely stunning!
The performance,color and wheels stole my heart in a blink.
The alfa looks amazing 👏
*Alfa
no
That is just a beautiful looking car! That colour with the carbon 👌🏻
The sound of that exhaust😳
The carwow bang of truth 6:10
"most exciting alfa u can buy" ALFA 8C has entered the chat
the 8c isn't great to drive apparently
@@edthrii'll report you to oblivion
@@edthri Have you driven it?
@@franco_0347 no that's why I said apparently
@@edthri I don't care. Cruising down the road in that beauty would be amazing. I'm convinced the 8C was the vehicle Borat was looking for at the dealership when he enquired about buying a car that has a pussy magnet.
I'm sorry Matt, but i haven't listened to a single word you said in this video! I zoned out and have just been looking at this beautiful car!!
Great video Mat!😸
Most GTAm models will be parked in a collection as an appreciating asset.
I don't think they are worth the asking price, but they are a smart move as a long-term investment.
But alfa sold them all so the asking price is just right
Finally something that is not German! Can we get more italian and british manufactures on this channel please? There are more then 3 brands in the world (Audi,BMW, BENZ)
they don't release as much as German do since German do everything from low end to high end unlike Italian or English which focuse on one sector mainly
Thank you for the great test. It revs great, sounds great and still even the updated cockpit looks not like a touchpad garden. Best 4 door emotional daily power car.
EXCELLENT REVIEW - - - THANKS!
This has been my new dream car for months. I would love it if they made a paint option for the Italian Flag, this middle white , the right side green and the left side red
no please
That will cost an extra £1500.
That would look fucking rancid
just wrap it
Please don't do that 🤣 the only car that looks good with a flag is the original mini with the union roof
This car is bang on, the cherry on the top of the Quadrifoglio lineup, also looks like a great investment, as lightly used may easily ask for double its current price after twenty years or so.
This is good for people named Harry, with Harrys Garage type buildings and car insurance policies.
You can get much better for the price... 911 GT3...
@@verhu010 These Italian Alfa fans can't argue with logic, only emotion and nachos
@@nyc863 you meant that boomer with 3 follicles of hair that loves complaining about cars. LOL. I watched the video where he compared the Uglyetta QV with Golf R, and he had his son with a kid's voice and it was cringe lmao.
2021 is the year where car reviewers get excited when the vents or exhaust tips are actually real..
dear car industri, no more fake vents
most beautiful Sedan I've ever seen! hands down!
check your eyes
Very odd that flipping it into Race doesn’t kill stability completely as it does on the regular QV….Regardless, awesome review on such an epic car, and sounds glorious!!
one of the most best looking cars right now for me personally, I just wish it wasn’t as limited or as expensive
@@okay7332 Depending where you are located, like myself, we don’t even get to see them in person as they are mostly for the euro market.
@@chasinglimits thats why its so frustrating they are in such low numbers. I live in ireland i doubt ill see any at all, I would of loved for them to make this car in higher numbers so i actually have the chance to see one.
@@okay7332 well myself living in Canada, we have zero chance of ever seeing one here, so at least you’re on the right side of the pond for a slight chance at it!
fanboy spotted. Change your profile pic. It's ugly lmao
Hey Mat! That's pretty much exactly how I got my tinnitus. Be careful with those cars! Cheers
4:16 carwow editor needs some credit for that edit 😂
What a beautiful car. Every single aspect is just, wild.
its insanely beautiful
Get a girl that giggles at you the way matt giggles at this car 8:33
Bet this is more reliable than anything out of Germany now.
Hey Matt i really need to see this car vs New M3 competition
I love the sound the Giulia makes, it's so awesome 👌🏾 I just wish they would have made a coupé once
Let's appreciate that how he makes our days 💗💗💞💞🌸🌸
That car is amazinggggggg and that color!
So much about this car would drive you nuts and I still need it.
I'm in love with this car so I think it's worth that price.
Wow. What an absolutely gorgeous car.
I love the design!
Camt believe you got one of these off Alfa especially after the "Toenail" scandal. Great review and in modern Racing Green it looks epic. I believe they are all sold out now.
Sounds good looks good.
sounds good, looks weird
Such a sick car. These regular uploads are amazing keep it up.
Driving along the A40 Stokenchurch back road, nice road to throw a car around.
That JK Simmons meme/clip is legendary 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The best on the class!! I love this car!!
Why didn't you try launch control which has been added to GTA-m? Alfa claims they've added this feature to GTA-m
More Quadrifoglio content please!!
I can't help but hear you say "I Emma Watson" and you have my attention immediately
With that price tag I am a little 'diffused', holy moly!
Limited, that´s why
I was configuring this car 2 day ago….
Couldn’t wait to get it!
Anyways I waited long enough and my burger FINALLY arrived!
srs? So you must be very rich or very stupid xD
Oh my stars, this thing sounds glorious 😭😭😭
Stunning- the end!
Great video Matt! The GTA M is one of the best looking cars ever made, inside and out. Not a bad angle on the car, and it sounds amazing too! Excellent track car and I would love to have one. The price is high yes, but how many current manufacturers have real Formula 1 experience and engineering?
Pure perfection from every angle!!😍😍😍
bahahaa
I love it & I know they're not going to struggle to sell them but... if you're spending 150k on a 2-seater for the track, why do it based around an inherently heavier 5-door saloon body shape?
Imagine owning this and manual swapping it. The perfect car
Beautiful looking car like most alfa's but I wish they would put Q4 in their high performance models, with all that power it's a struggle to put it down with a rear wheel drive car...Q4 is definitely one of the best all wheel drive systems out there now rear wheel bias so you get punch in the back 😍
