Novitec Alfa Romeo Giulietta: Coming to America

[AdrianoCROST]

Novitec ruined a nice car.

[ollonsvin]

NOVITEC is from DENMARK you fckuing moron!!!!

[TheDriveChannel]

@ollonsvin Oh yeah...that powerhouse country somewhere in the frozen tundra of Europe. Learn to spell if you're going to insult me, to me...THAT is moronic.

[shimeluchin]

it looks great imo

[johneddy98033]

@cavifl45, Sure, the new Dart has the same architecture as the Giulietta, but it has more aggressive styling as well as two new DOHC 16V "Tigershark" engines.

the back of this car looks real nice

[boschfi1984]

diablo.. the 164 is a front drive car..i own a 1994 ls model..awd was an option, no rwd 164's..

[boschfi1984]

yoe , the 20" wheels are way to ulgy for the car, go to 17 perhaps 18" wheels at the most.

[boschfi1984]

i drive an 84 alfa romeo spider..to work and back . to the ocean on back road..up to 7000 rpm..alot:):) alfa's are quite reliible, just as long as you manitain them..as a point, it's as relible as my 2008 accord.. i never worry about it..( and i am honda sales person)

The Novitec version will most likely be replaced with a SRT here in the States... Hopefully that means the Focus RS will have to made for sure.

[IwantaLexusLFA]

This car is crap, and ugliest cuz is too fat from the side view, without thos big rims the car looks ridicule and I know it very well cuz I live in Italy. Then the front is totally out of question: a 60's design,lol. Lexus CT or BMW 1er all the way.

[cavifl45]

Yeah... coming to the US as Dodge Dart

[TheDriveChannel]

@cavifl45 I just posted the Dodge Dart teaser photo on my FB..got it yesterday from Chrysler.

[paul734]

I've seen many of these around Detroit. Everytime I see one I never have my damn camera.lol

[246MLG]

I wonder what the price will be?

[diablo3724]

Boost in performance and looks before any real sales (involving Novitec) is a tactic needed to gain serious North American interest. Very predictable move seeing Alfa was debating it's reentry to the western world since 03.

I couldn't wait for Alfa and built my own. With the Alfa 164 engine bored to 3.7, 6 individual throttle bodies, GoTech EMS, Stage 2 cams, headers, watts link, RSR suspension, OS Giken gears, kicking out 370bhp AND rear wheel drive...I'm more than happy!!

[TheCruizer]

"Well built" isn't a description you'll hear often about an Italian vehicle! ;)

[TheDriveChannel]

@TheCruizer We're in Tampa...

[TheDriveChannel]

@TheCruizer You aren't kidding...I worked on enough of all of them to know. If they don't live up to their dealer network stability...they'll be short lived in the US.

[rmcld]

@TheCruizer what is a well built car in steriotype language?

[exnemocpt]

@TheCruizer

This happens because you still live in the 80's.

[TheCruizer]

@exnemocpt: do you know me, jerk?

[exnemocpt]

@TheCruizer

XD....Are you nervous? Take a drink, man.

[PACMAN1134]

its 2 am here in fl...where the hel are you guys based? lol. as a gti owner, i keep y eye out for other hatchbacks and i have to say that this thing looks very nice. aggressive, with masculine and femanin attributes. getting coil overs is every gti owner and tuners dream, and for it to come stock with a certain package is awesome! it gonna be a hit, everyone likes italy. and fast red cars. if it were rear wheel drive, this thing would be a fucking dream come true.
