Huge, major props to Alfa for using proper shifting paddles that are NOT attached to the steering wheel.
This is how all cars should be done; it's not only better but safer as well.
Lastly, I absolutely love the QV and would not hesitate to get one a few years down the road if they're still around. I made the mistake of driving a 4C and fell in love with it, but alas practically does play a role in my life
