Well you clearly like to be different, and created a whole thread about how you’re different. I haven’t ever met you, so my statement still holds true 😆.
Well you clearly like to be different, and created a whole thread about how you’re different. I haven’t ever met you, so my statement still holds true 😆.You have conveniently forgotten my thread where I said the color disappointed me when I saw it in-person. Several people in that thread criticized me because they didn't know why I was bothering to post....
Scratching my head.
Tri-Coat means it has three layers of paint.Thank you for throwing that beetle into our configuration, seriously, you answered my question and I have a larger conundrum. I will properly ignore the lack of the word 'metallic'. The wife and I have a serious decision, still leaning Misano but every time I see pics of Montreal I want it. grrrrrr.
Thanks again !
Tri-Coat means it has three layers of paint.
Alfa Rosso - 1 layer; just base color red
Rosso Etna (Metallic) - 2 layers; base and metallic
Rosso Competizione (Tri Coat) - 3 layers; base, metallic and a tint coat
Ocra GT and Verde Montreal are Tri Coat. There is a base color and metallic flake under a layer of tint or something else.
Tri Coat is more expensive.
Verde sparkles in bright sun.
So far Misano is leading but Montreal is messing with my head as it is so unique and my wife likes it a lot. A friend sent me hi-res pics and it’s gorgeous.Stay with Misano Blue! It looks so much better in person, in the sunlight!
I tell ya, I'm one of those darn individualists!Well you clearly like to be different, and created a whole thread about how you’re different. I haven’t ever met you, so my statement still holds true 😆.
Have you seen the “translations” for the Tonale colors shared with the Hornet?No idea. And some colors use the Italian word such as Alfa Rosso while others use English such as vulcano black (although I'm having none of it anymore!)
Fun. I don't get the Bimmer reference though?I tell ya, I'm one of those darn individualists!
I suppose you're much more mainstream, which is why you drive that new BMW model, the "Giulia". That's fair I suppose. No one wants to be too different.

No but unless Alfa will let me pick a Tonale color there’s no need, i am just glad I am getting the mean ‘Tonale’ eyes with matrix LEDHave you seen the “translations” for the Tonale colors shared with the Hornet?
BMW is the mainstream option. It's the performance sedan "everyone" prefers (along with MB and Audi). Even in-person!Fun. I don't get the Bimmer reference though?
I guess I get your reference now, but considering there are probably 15 green QVs sold (and 200 QVs period) in the United States per year, it's not very mainstream.BMW is the mainstream option. It's the performance sedan "everyone" prefers (along with MB and Audi). Even in-person!

Ocra and Verde Montreal…super mainstream and basicI guess I get your reference now, but considering there are probably 15 green QVs sold (and 200 QVs period) in the United States per year, it's not very mainstream.
Anyone who buys an Alfa likely does not consider themselves to be part of the crowd.
People who don't like Verde Montreal in-person: extra-super unusual. And discerning in their taste.Ocra and Verde Montreal…super mainstream and basic(sarcasm)
I would agree 23 years ago when I had an E46 M3 but if you gave me a BMW now I’d sell itBMW is the mainstream option. It's the performance sedan "everyone" prefers (along with MB and Audi). Even in-person!
