I went and I was FLOORED!! I will sell everything I own to get one of these next year if I have to. I took over 300 high res pics and have a half dozen or so of the 8c that I just downloaded to my computer and they came out awesome.[yeah] No interior shots because you couldn't get close enough but from what I could see, I love it. I also got good shots of the 3 BATs.

I really don't feel like resizing everything. My web site is down so I don't have web storage. Anybody wanna throw me a quick tutorial and a site to post the pics?

As for the 8c, somebody at Alfa finally pulled their head out of their collective asses and got it right. Drop dead sexy styling, front engine, RWD, 500HP, 6 speed. I have heard a lot of "rumors" here but I spoke to some folks at the Councours that were there the day before and saw a presentation Jay Leno gave on the car giving it much praise. They said Jay spoke of how the car would "street" for ~$60,000USD. That sounds much more realistic to me. Now all Alfa has to do is ship them to

Off-topic: I also scoped out the new Maserati Birdcage 75th and that thing is off the hook! Contrary to other lame rumors, it has a v12 and sounds straight up like a true race car. Sounded much better than most of the current Ferarri crop! The word on this car is it too is supposed to also make the leap from prototype to production car for next year. As soon as I figure it out, I'll throw those pics up too if you guys want.
