Both of my Alfa Romeo never had any issues and never spent time being fixed.

Alfa Romeo unreliability is a myth.
Au contraire, mon frere! If that was true, why did Alfa quit selling cars here in the US back in the '90s and only recently returned with their latest 4C offering? The people I know who had Alfas back in the 80s and 90s had innumerable reliability problems with them and eventually got rid of them. Maybe their reputation in Europe, which has fewer Government regulations/requirements, is different, but not in the US. This one looks like it has the same chassis as the Dodge Dart with a "better" engine, but ask anyone who owns or has owned a Ferrari, Maserati, or Lambo about how high-maintenance those cars are. Lots of attention required, expensive parts, and not much of a dealership network unless you live in a large urban metro area.
