    Hey folks, thought I'd share the wonderful news! Yesterday, I ordered an Alfa Romeo Giulia Ti Sport, and I decided to test drive one today to experience it in person while I wait 4 months for my car!

    It was AMAZING! For context, I drive a 2017 Charger SXT AWD. The steering, oh god the steering. It's so goddamn precise. The paddle shifters are where they should be (column-mounted so they don't turn with the wheel) and give good feedback when you use them. The torque is sooo amazing on it too. 5th gear at 2000rpm and it just goes. This car is better in every way than my Charger, except for the fact that there are no vented seats and the rears are not heated, but that's a sacrifice I'm willing to make.

    A 3 grand computer, plus a $45,000 car when your “old” car is one year old? Are you a millionaire?

    Is your local dealership good at quality repairs? You're gonna need them soon.

    LOL no, but I got a massive raise at work so I figured I'd do a trade-in!

    My computer is mostly built from yearly christmas gifts, so you can thank my dad for spoiling me with expensive computer parts!

    My mom works for FCA so she knows many people in the industry. I'm sure I'll get very close with many of them! ;)

    I think the warranty won't last until 2035...
