I`ve got a theory that BMW and Porsche are the most similar to Alfa Romeo, compared to most other brands. They are more driver orientated than say Mercedes generally. Like you chaps I also own a BMW (E36 318i manual) plus W202 C200 MB (my business car) and have owned a 2002 tii, and a E28 520i.
The only thing though is all the BM`s I driven have still lacked that character and appeal (to me) that Alfas have. If you look at a Giulia and compare to the contempory BMW-the Neuwe Klass saloons, there is no contest, even compared to the later 02 coupes-Alfa with its eager performance, great sound and vice free handling beats BMW.
