Personally wouldn't touch this with a barge pole! But 505 BHP Stelvio is incoming. Would this scare Porsche, or are porsche happy knowing the name sells itself?

I've been following this for a while now. Trying not to let the heart rule.
The small engined and diesel ones are yawn fests, of course, but the prospect of a hot version is nice.

I snagged the image from a google news alert but found a more reputable page for the story!

Nice that the Macan is the car to beat! And our little GTS is only 340 BHP. But if that things goes 0-62 in under 4 seconds then have fun! Alfa reliability isnt great even to this day!

That image is a mockup tho, so should be taken with a pinch of salt.

I love the Alfa backstory and it's great to see them getting some of their mojo back recently.

I had a Mito for a while and it was a bit of a blast. I hadn't driven for nearly 15 years so was a great little car to relearn in for a while. Lots of personality...and I was lucky with reliability so was all good.

Can I ask that if anyone buys a Stevlio, can you put me at the top of the list to buy it off you for £10.00 a week or two after you take deivery?
