Is the tri-coat a big improvement over a standard paint job?

Oh this is a huge no-brainer. No way do you want to select the plain old (stunning) Afla Rosso Red like on my Giulia.
The plain old red avoids the $2200 extra for the tri-coat. Your friends will think you are a cheapskate like me!
The plain old red is gorgeous bright red in the sun (deeper red in the shade), no speckled spots and attracts folks from miles around like flies to gawk!
The plain old red looks especially awesome with the yellow brake calipers. Folks will mistakenly think it is a Ferrari!
You will have herds of screaming young chicks asking you for a ride.

PS: White would be great as that is the same exact color as 95% of the BMW's on the road!

Nothing wrong with Alfa Red. Now, I will say the Rosso Comp is a bit schizophrenic. The sun is shining on her she thinks she is Alfa Red super bright then the shade comes in and you get this Monza red. She does sparkle in the sun so now who does not like sparkles.Oh this is a huge no-brainer. No way do you want to select the plain old (stunning) Afla Rosso Red like on my Giulia.

Now I do have to say we have red calipers on the QV so she probably isn't as much of a stand out. But...when she blows out of the lights who sees the calipers in my rear view mirror. Yep Yellow calipers will draw your eyes to the brakes but then everyone notices the carbon ceramic and go wow look at those drums like they saw something they have never seen before. So no yellow for now. Maybe later.
I usually like white cars and I like it on the Giulia too. But I just feel red is more "Alfa", similar to a red Ferrari. I like both reds but decided to go with the more subtle Comp. It doesn't pop as much as Alfa Rosso, but when it's clean and under proper lighting, it's quite special. Until you see a Mazda driving by with the same color and ask yourself why you paid that much for a standard color in other brands.
