REVIEW

The BMW M3 has been the king of the super saloons for many years, sure there have been pretenders to the crown in the form of the Mercedes C63 AMG and Audi RS4 but the best of them all has always been the BMW. But Alfa has a new kid on the block and it has petrolheads salivating at the prospect – the Giulia Quadrifoglio.

It scores a massive win straight away on looks – it truly is one of the best looking cars on sale today – aggressive, beautiful, sporting, it ticks all the boxes. But to beat the M3 it needs to deliver on the technical front too – so we have an all-new RWD platform and powering those wheels through an 8-speed auto ‘box is a Ferrari-developed 2.9 litre twin turbo V6 producing a staggering 503bhp.

Take that, BMW – that’s 72bhp more than the M3 and it weighs around the same too. It drives just as well as the M3 too, so finally we have a proper Italian alternative to the German super saloons – viva Italia! 

And you could win your very own Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio right here in the BOTB Competition!
