… and then, there is their mediocre–at best–reliability.  
I can’t imagine dealing with those reliability issues when most or all of the Alfa dealerships have shut their doors. And, once they stop selling that marque in The US, the resale value of those cars will be really, really low.

THANK YOU… you may be my voice of reason!!! But have you been in an Alpha??? Yes I know I could get a brand new CX5 for the cost of the used Alpha. And what’s wrong with asking questions on the web… I’m not solely relying on what I get here. Appreciate your input.!!

I can guarantee that he has not.  
However, it is possible that he has driven an **Alfa**.  
😉

Fun Fact:  
“ALFA” is not really a word, and is actually an acronym for the following words:  
_Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobile_  
A rough translation is…Lombardy Car Factory Company

WELL… I made my decision and I purchased a 2017 KIA Sorento EX-V6.

Thanks for all the help.
