Nice one and not before time.

 

[Dan!]

Sounds fun, in excess of 250BHP in something weighing roughly the same as an Elise!
Look forward to the unveiling

 

[conaero]

Praise the lord!

Get it right and they will sell a bucket load. The only thing I dont like is the weight sounds like it will be a VX220 and that is not what I want from an alfa. I would rather it be heavier and have a V6 slung in the back...now your talking!

But, less of the negatives, lets see what little gem they come out with.

 

[ADM]

this would be amazing.

 

[ENZ525]

Excellent..I recon they have been reading a few forum threads

 

[Dan!]

Just imagine if it turned out to be this.....

For £30k I'd put a deposit down now!

 

[conaero]

Hum, shame is, that its not aloud to be faster than a Mas or a Fezer!

So 800kgs and 275hp on tap, that is 345hp per tonne so a 0-60 should be sub 4 seconds, cant see it happening, there is no way that Fez and Maz would allow it.

Probably the case Matt, though the 8C did sneak through, so you never Know? Here's hoping..............

 

[conaero]

I suppose it is a very different car to the Maz and Fez, light weigh and probably this would mean that it will be low on creature comforts, like carpet.

Here hoping it will be a success!

This is great news from Alfa, looking forward to this new car.

Well shall see but either way we should praise the lord for RWD.....

Not sure if the V6 thing bother sme as we are slowly losing these engines due to the greens...........BMW are binning one of their all time great the staright 6 that has graced many an M car since 1994 and going back to a 4 pot with two turbo chargers...Sure many will follow................As long as the Alfa is fun, fast and sounds like an Alfa then that would be fine by me.

 

[Andyk]

Was just reading on EVO web site that the styling cues for this car will come from the 8C...Thats must be a good thing...

 

[GransportFan1]

so it wont be ugly then.

 

[Andyk]

Not sure there is an ugly Alfa.......

 

[GransportFan1]

146??? 145??? they are ugly.

 

[dem maser]

they aint ugly adam.....

 

[Andyk]

Not a chance Adam........Not ugly......Even the 33 isn't ugly....The reason for that is because its an Alfa............Beauty is in the soul......

 

[GransportFan1]

they are not pretty though are they????
