What's your opinion of the style, of the Alfa Romeo Giulia and do you prefer the style/look over the BMW, Audi, Lexus and Mercedes?

Based on exterior styling alone:

1) Audi
2) Cadillac
3) BMW
4) Jaguar
5) Lexus
6) Volvo
7) Mercedes
8) Alfa

None of them are great looking, but the M-B and Alfa are flat out ugly.

I love the Alfa's styling. I just don't think they'll work reliably.
Jaguars look alright, just not nearly as good as they used to.
V-Series Cadillacs are hot.
The Lexus got hit in the face with an ugly stick.

I think all ARs have a fairly ugly front nose. It's that little triangle grille that I cannot stand. But with the Giulia it seems worse. The 4C handles it much better. I also love the mid mount engine (under glass) in the 4C.

There are style features that I like and dislike about each of these. OTOH they are all pretty good cars.

I think I would be happiest owning either the Audi or the Jaguar. But if someone wants to give me the Alfa, I would not turn it down.

Not a big fan of that front end, but otherwise the car is fine.

I think the grill and front end on the Alfa, is unique and distinctive. Especially with the trend of car manufacturers opting for gigantic grills filling up the entire front end of the car.. Case and point, Lexus and Audi.

The Alfa Romeo Giulia is a real "head turner".

I would buy the Alfa Giulia because of it's distinctivrness over all the others.
Yes I agree, it is unique. I wasn't saying it is ugly, but I'm just not feeling it for my own personal taste at the moment. I guess it will have to grow on me, like so many other cars have done. I don't think I will be seeing many of these around my town anyway.

For looks, the alfa and the jag are head turners, very sexy. The others are too common on US soil, and the looks will be dull in 4 years time.

Alfa and jag have good destintictive looks, look at me, im different!
