Hi all - first time joining a forum so take it easy on me if I'm doing something I'm not supposed to hehe.
I'm from Malta (Europe, 60 Miles south of Sicily, Italy) and am awaiting shipment of my new MY21 Stelvio Veloce Ti. It's a brand new model introduced with the MY21. As I was drafting the specs I want to get a quote from my local Alfa dealer, I was torn between whether or not I should go for the Active suspension option. I decided not to go for it since it was a 5,000 Euro option and all it basically gave you was an option to firm up the suspension and a Limited Slip Diff. Not really concerned about the firmer suspension (roads here aren anything but silky smooth), but every now and then I start wondering if I'd done the right choice not getting the LSD.
My father has a MY20 Lusso Ti with the same 2.0 280bhp that mine will have, and it handles incredibly, so sometimes I'm not too concerned, but other times I can't stop thinking about it.
Any heads up on whether it was a good move or mistake? It's too late now anyways, but just wondering if it ACTUALLY does make that much of a difference.
Nevertheless, extremely excited and can't wait till it's here! First one on our roads supposedly, and feel like it's gonna look great - Anodized Blue, Red Calipers, 20 inch Diamond Cut Teledials, Carbon fibre V/ mirrors/ interior trim, QV half leather half alcantara seats, and sunroof
Thanks in advance!
