    I DO remember thinking (at nite, in the rain) that the hi beams were somehow "off"...either brightness or aim, but not the best I've ever seen.
    May also be my 67 yo eyes...LOL

    May need to investigate the 35 watt upgrade bulbs.

    then don't..had mine for 4 years now, never had an issue, come to think of it, never put a front plate on any of my "fun" cars.
    glad you are enjoying the Giulia, they are addictive.

    The idiots at the dealer mounted my front plate holder w self tapping metal screws...
    Just LONG enough to hit and scratch the paint if the bumper is bumped.

    I'm looking for alternative service availibility...

    I have an early 2017 Giulia Ti Q4 with sport and performance packages in Trofeo White Tri-coat with tan interior and yellow calipers with 36,000 miles on the clock. It is everything I hoped it would be including being very reliable and it's the best car I've ever owned. Buy a new one or find a well kept used one and you will not be disappointed.

    Im coming up on fisrt service. Went and looked at the service departmets of the two closest dealers, ugh grease pits deluxe. You just know youre going to get the car back with grease stains in the interior. Plus they want the car to be left there for the day, ie till they get to it for an oil change. Hard to believe an upscale brand would even license such a service departmet, thats the fly in the Alfa ointment.

    Going to take the drive to Miller motors in Greenwich to do the service.
    After that may just have my local guy do the work. Its not as though there is 3 years maintance with the car so no need for a dealer..

    I have brought my QV only to Miller after my 1st and last service experience with the selling dealer.
    You will not be disappointed. Even better is the service for Alfa is now in Greenwich! No more slugging up to Stamford!

    thank you, I figured Miller would be good as they’re pretty decent with the other brands
