I'm going to make a statement here that may offend some, but so be it. Only a soulless non-player character (NPC) could get into an Alfa Romeo - any Alfa Romeo - and not have a smile on their face, because the smile actually emanates from the heart. Such is the effect of Alfa Romeo's charismatic Italian cuore sportivo or sporting heart. And so it is with the Giulia Veloce. From the moment one lays eyes on it to the drive itself, you'll know that you're in the presence of something truly special. There's no other premium sedan in its price range that will put a similar smile in your heart and on your face. Nothing. Especially in the test car's bright Alfa White. Boy, does it turn heads. Esterno From the shield that hangs from the bumper's top to lower lip to the two 'wings' in a nod toward the days of Alfa Romeo Avio, this is a distinctly Alfa Romeo face. Adding to the front-end dramatics is a refreshed look courtesy of the new 'trilobe' matrix LED headlights which replace the xenon units of the pre-facelift version, and is definitely a welcome change. Those 'trilobes' also house sequential turn signals, and are a pretty sight to behold at night.
