Well, the last Katie's Cars & Coffee of the year was certainly one to remember. Unfortunately, the only Lotus representation today was Mick in his Exige, and me in my Seven. The last picture teases one of the previews I gave for today... --Bob Collum

As promised, Alfa brought out a Giulia Quadrifoglio. In addition to the dealership's car, a new owner brought his identical Quadrifoglio. The key facts - a 505hp Ferrari-derived twin-turbo V6, and a $79,000 list price. --Bob Collum

Here's the other part of the promised visitors to Katie's today - The LeMay Museum from Tacoma brought some old American cars down, on their "Drive Home" winter driving tour. The cars that made it to Katie's were the Chrysler 300 G, the '57 Chevy, and the 1917 Crane-Simplex Model 5, originally owned by JD Rockefeller. (The Mustang had transmission problems, and was laid up for repairs in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.) Here's a link to the LeMay Drive Home blog: Read it on blog.hemmings.com

The initial Giulia shipments started arriving to dealerships on, I think, Dec 19 or somewhere around then. What did you think of it after seeing it in person? Does it live up to the hype?

Kevin:
The Giulia Quadrifoglio looks pretty good, and 505hp must be exciting, but $80,000 is over my limit.
