The QV has been a complete joy our servicing dealer has been great and the way the car drives is amazing. We did forgo the Stelvio QV for the 2019 X5 50i (sorry just couldn't go for the 40i after the 505 hp) but I can say we are really enjoying the new X5. It has a ton of power but is no sedan. The Stelvio QV is a rocket but personally I think rockets belong in coupes and sedans. I would recommend just to make sure you can say you tried them both to test drive the QV version. It isn't always about the spec. At least on the QV Giulia it is so precise but yet graceful and dial it up the subtle sedan turns into a monster. It is also quite fun since no one really knows what it is. Very nice exhaust note with a forza bypass controller in all modes. It is nice having a few different brands. Now it is a MINI a new X5 and a QV. All over the map.
By the way are still looking at the 4C used now. The QV is Rosso Tri-coat as well but with dark Tecnico. Alfa would have had a better shot had the larger SUV been released but couldn't wait. Very happy with the X5 50i. I can't even imagine and X5M. Almost silly in that size of car. The X3M makes a lot more sense. The X5 50 is 4.4 I think so no slouch however those smaller sport crossovers are a heck of a lot of fun but it is also nice to jump into entirely different driving experiences in different brands. What do I feel like driving today??? We really do need that 4C. Love the Stelvio QV or the X3M though |
The 4C Spider is the perfect companion to the Stelvio QV. Registered mine a week ago and drove it over 500 miles in 3.5 days. Absolutely addictive car. I bet some of the more hard core M crowd would even enjoy it. Super lightweight, no power steering, firm brakes, flat body control...all business. Mine has the factory titanium Akrapovic Exhaust option and it sounds amazing in Race and Dynamic modes.
