Just love this

I now we have all seen pics before but everytime I see one of these I just go weak....For me it looks better than the Coupe.

Love the car,
looks stunning with the roof down,
but don't like the red against the black windcreen surround when it's up.

 

[Andyk]

Didn't notice that....you're right.

that is an absolute beaut, we all know its a Maser really!

Shame they priced it so high, Alfa could have cleaned up at £60k a pop.

 

[Andyk]

From what I've read it's a better car than the coupe....I think they listened to feed back on the coupe and put what they learnd into the Spider. Dread to think what the price is.

Got to be a couple of hundred Andy dont you think?

 

[Andyk]

Yep 200k I would think or not far off...Coupes are 150K used...

On the other end of the scale..I do like classic Alfas...Needs work but so little money for such a pretty shape.

Andy at that price its very good value. Ok the interior is tatty, but you could drive that round for 3 year, put 40k on it, and still get you money back.

Now that's sensible motoring.

It just looks so pretty. Perfect proportions and just the right size to throw around...Lovely.

I have always maintained that if Alfa were to bring out a rear wheel drive sports car with a bit of get up and go offering at least Gransport performance and the looks of an 8C, at around £50/60 k they would clean up. It is what Alfa enthusiasts have been waitng for. It is a shame that the 8C was done as more of a PR job for the Mito, which for me is one of my least favourite Alfas. I know the front end is supposed to be modelled on the 8C but thats where it begins and ends.

Agree, you coud never make a small hatchback look like an AC.....I will say I do like the Mito though. If you look at whats available in the sector surely is the best looking hatchback out there....It certainly adds some colour and flare to an other wise dull market sector, which is what Alfa seem to do so well.
