Alfa Romeo almost clones the M2 into Giulia - 510 PS!

Have you guys seen that car? Doesn't it resemble the 2-series,, and the M2 in particular? And this Ferrari I6 with 510 PS, RWD, and the cockpit turned towards the driver... I really thought copying like this is a Chinese specialty!

Looks a little more M3-ish to me - but it's a nice looking ride regardless.

Alfa! I guess it was a auto-correct though.

Can't really see any BMW in that car.

OK I stand corrected - it's a sedan, not a coupe, and looks larger than M2. However those saying there is nothing BMW in it should check their glasses (sorry - no flames please; just look at those little details...).

It's nice to be called a "kid" again, at my 61 years of age and 44 of it motoring...

But I can see I'm not a welcome guest on the M forum, so I'm off.

Bye!

It looks literally nothing like a BMW.

Just because it also has windows, wheels, and doors, doesn't mean they copied BMW. It looks literally nothing like a BMW from any angle.

Well duhhhhhh, no kidding, that's why I made a joke about the mirrors...

Although to play devil's advocate, you should check out the c pillar and tell me what sort of kink that looks like.

No cocky M owner is able to make me do that. I'm just not going to post here any more - only read your posts, and laugh at your blown up egos.
