👀 My first Giulia ❤
« on: July 19, 2018, 01:50:09 PM »


Out on my Piaggio this morning and a lady in her Alfa Romeo Giulia pulled along side at a stop light.
I tooted and gave her a thumbs up.
She lowered her window and asked in a very Italian accent, "That's a Piaggio?" (only 3 syllables -" pee-Ah-jo ")
I nodded.

She said, "Pretty color!"

I said, "It's the only color!"
She smiled.

Look for the green 4 leaf clover in w white circle on the front quarter panel, that is the Quadrifoglio(4 leaf). They are beautiful machines. I drove a 156 Alfa twin spark when I was living in Rome. I hear they are making a 2 door Guilia GTV with all wheel drive as a competitor to the BMW M4. I am sure that will be a beautiful car also. The Stelvio SUV is also a looker.
