The internet is a funny place. I'm not sure I'm arguing (in fact, I think I pointed out that arguing was silly), yet, you say I am. Ok

Maybe? Those videos are almost a year apart. I would think that to have a comparison that you would run them one after each other - same temp, same day, etc.

Look, I'm just saying that Alfa popped off the line and sounded amazing - especially as it put distance on the X3. I think that as BMW fan boys (myself included!) we should be able to agree on that. If we can't... well then...

I do personally think the Alfa is a kind of ugly. I sort of like the X4, but dammit, the designers of the X2/X4/X6 have apparently forgotten the bumper and that just looks weird!
