Beautiful
not an 8 but its absolutely stunning nonetheless...
wish it goes into production..... http://www.cardesignnews.com/autosho...ompetp9928.jpg http://www.cardesignnews.com/autosho...ompetw2050.jpg Alfa Roemo 8 Competizione Concept |
WHY does it nearly always take an Italian carmaker to really turn my crank?! The last Japanese cars to do this to me were the NA Miata and the FD Rx7.. THIS is the direction I wish Mazda would take! Timeless, classic, looks good 30 years in the future, or 30 years ago.
The last American car to do this to me was.. the original Stingray. Wow, talk about a dry spell.. I want this Alfa. I want it. RWD, 4.2 liter v8 (could it be the Ferrari/Maserati 8-banger?) Sell this for 60,000, Alfa, and you'll pull a fast one on BMW, Porsche, etc :D |
Very nice, I like it.. I see hints of the Enzo and RX-8 in it.. Can't go wrong with that combo. :D
|
WOWWWW
|
It looks like bat-mobile. :D
|
cars so damn tight, id love to see it in the states
thats one of the things Italy does better than anybody else, make things beautiful ________ Problems from depakote |
Have not seen new cars emerging the market with this kind of curves for a while now. This car looks really really good, sexy! I hope it would make it to the production line.
|
Those curves remind me of the Dino
|
That is definitely stunning.
I love the voluptuous curves of the rear quarter panel. |
|
Very briefly mentioned, "powered by a front mounted 400bhp, eight cylinder engine"
|
|
Wow. It looks computer generated.

Beautiful, but ..... it's an Alfa Romeo .....
|
whats wrong with alfa romero
|
Like all italian cars, not reliable, a lot of "visits" to the garage, it lost very quickly their value (I don't know how it's said in english, sorry), expensive maintenace, ...
the only good thing of the italian cars --> very good exterior design, thats all. and... it's a Fiat :( |
hmm.. not really.. the newer alfas (156/147)are quite ok in reliability.....
its the older ones which are quite unreliable.... (might as well say that Ferrari is a Fiat) |
Yeah
Ferrari and Maserati..... each 2000km to the garage and 3000 euro in maintenance. |
That new alfa is bvasicaly a restyled Maserati with a ferari engin in anyhow.
A 4300gt or whatever. Oh and Alfa's are anything but reliable, as are fiats. Alfa's selspeed gearbox and 4 cylinder engines are awfull, aswell as brakes, suspension and transmission. Their V6's are schweet tho! |
zaskar
How can you say that Have you ever even owned a Italian car |
yeah, hes from spain
a carzy old guy a know, thats been riding on 20's since before it was kool, used to have an alfa spyder, thing was frekin gorgeous but was in the shop like every other week ________ Ebony Webcam |
owned a Maserati 3200 GT (twin turbo, 370 CV)
and a friend has a Ferrari 348 GTB and a Lamborghini Diablo VTS and we know what kind of fucking cars are those italians. Very beautiful, good design, etc.. but not reliable at all. Sorry, but I hate italians cars (not italian people :D ) |
good because I'm Italian
