But yes the driving experience can certainly make up for it depending on the individual.

Italian cars historically will have nice leathers and wood finishes but have cheap switchgear and overall quality. Seems like they'll never get it right.
Agree, sadly these days seems like to get the perfect car you have to sacrifice some areas. Its no longer a "have your cake and eat it too" situation where you could get great quality and a great driving experience. With the G20 you sacrifice the driving experience for the luxury and quality, and the opposite for the Alfa.
