But you're ACTUALLY COMPARING the driving dynamics of RWD to FWD and making this statement. AWD to AWD

You are comparing throttle response of 280hp turbo engine to a 186hp na engine. Are you comparing the zf 8 speed to whatever is in a mazda...
My vehicle has 250hp/310# torque, AWD, and a wonderful 6-speed transmission that is one of the best automatics I've driven.

You can't out accelerate. Outurn out handle or outdrive the Alfa in any human way possible.

Do you say things to get a rise out of people? Or are you this mind numbingly delusional?

As far as the Alfa 2.0. It's a global engine. A derivative of a tigershark which is a reliable engine but the Alfa engine is built way more solid to handle much more power kinda like an Evo engine.

You're just so delusional it's unreal... Import, go back to sleep. Go troll a RAV 4 or CR-V forum or stop sniffing the cow manure SMH.

Show me one professional race car driver comparing a cx5 to a giulia and maybe I'll consider your mindless dribble trying to justify your ridiculous unenthusiastic CUV purchase ..
Looks like the Alfa falls short in the braking and is my car's equal in the lateral adhesion, 5-60 tests, while ousting it by a little over half a second to 60, which is why I said "slightly more athletic". Fits. Try to control yourself.
