I’ve lost track of how many times other drivers have given me a thumbs up or a nod at traffic lights. It's a secret club, I guess.

I couldn't find the cap when I filled up the windshield washer fluid the first time. It's actually hidden under the hood emblem it turns out. I took way too long to figure that out.

I have owned a 156, a GT, and now a Brera and I'd say the Brera is the most 'modern' feeling of the lot. It's not as raw as the older Alfas, but it's more livable day to day.

I have had a 147 GTA and now a Brera. The Brera is very much more of a cruiser. All the same, it doesn't have that hot hatch feel, but it's unique. Plus, it turns more heads.

The Brera is a lot more reliable than my old 166. While it still has its quirks, it’s not the electrical nightmare that some older Alfas can be.

I want my old GTV back. The Brera is beautiful, but it’s heavy by comparison. It's not the Alfa experience you're used to, there's more GT than sports car.

My 159 gets way less attention than the Brera. Great cars, but the Brera just has the extra something in the looks department.

The Brera, coming from a 4C, feels like a luxury yacht. It is comfortable, it is quiet, and it’s easy to live with. Less exciting, but more practical.

I have had a 75, a GTV6, and now a Brera. Among them, the Brera feels the least 'Alfa-like' to me. It’s good, but not quite the old Alfa magic.
What is the Brera's design's most underrated part?

It’s so sleek the way the taillights wrap around the rear. It’s not as in your face as the front design, but it really completes the car.

I think interior design is underrated. It looks really nice the way the center console flows into the dash, and it feels like premium materials.

It has the perfect profile of the car. Just chef's kiss how the roof slopes down to that short rear deck. It's all about the proportions.

A neat touch are the hidden rear door handles. They’re clean without losing practicality. I love that it's a small detail.

It is iconic front grille design. It's aggressive without being too aggressive, and it immediately says 'Alfa Romeo' without the need of a badge.

The exhaust tips which are now integrated into rear bumper are appreciated. It’s a clean look you don’t see on many cars, much less from the late 60s.

Subtle is the way the hood bulges slightly to fit the engine but helps the car look muscular. A nice nod to the power underneath.

The alloy wheels are a perfect match within the car's lines. It’s hard to be distinctive without being flashy, and they are.
Is the Alfa Romeo Brera a pretty face or a true driver's car?
30 January 2025 09:23
I’m a Brera owner and can confirm it’s a lot more than eye candy. The sound out of the V6 is fantastic and it pulls hard. It may not be the sharpest tool in the shed, but it’s a great all rounder for daily use and weekend fun.

I've driven the Brera and the 159 and the 159 just felt more nimble. It's a gorgeous Brera, but it's a bit of a porker. Cruising is great, carving corners, not so much.

It’s a driver’s car, just not in the same way as a 4C. It’s a little bit more of a GT, comfortable for long trips, but still fun when you want to push it. Pure Alfa is the steering feel.
