WOW! That is one hot Alfa! I wish Alfa would stop teasing everyone with these special cars and put them into production!

During the Frankfurt show, Sniady and Kai, I need you two to cause a big distraction, like race around the show floor in your gtvs while I bust through the ceiling in a helicoptor and air lift this awesome Alfa to my place.

How would I write the sound of all the air being sucked out of my lungs?

Good lord that is one spectacular looking machine!!!!

Brings to mind the Tipo 33 Stradale.

Yes, these guys are really starting to kill me with these extremely desireable cars that I will never posess.

sigh

A few things before you get all too excited......

Its a computerrendering, not a real car - BUT the real car is supposedly going to be revealed at the show. How real it is, remain still to be seen - is it only going to be a mock-up? And whats the deal with the Brera? Are any of them going into production or?

Still, I love the 33/Stradale type headlight - a fantastic idea. Dont like the rear light too much though. Could be incorporated a whole lot better than two round lights.

I Like it! Even though the rear is a bit too much "Lotus Exige"....

I'm not too fond of the rear end either. Supposedly the front should be inspired by the Stradale and the rear by the TZ2. I like the front lights, but the rear lights dont do the car justice IMHO.

Put me down for the Distraction Show Floor Tour! I might have a chance if Sniady gets distracted by all the show floor girls.

Oh yeah, truely stunning concept!

Anthony, if you want this operation to be a success, the general should be the only one creating a distraction with those "models".

Thumbs up

Wow what a beautiful car ! It certainly is a long shot better looking than anything that Maseratti is putting that V8 in.

Thank you Jorgen.

By the way the girl who is wearing the red Alfa Grill is my niece and I am going to take my niece out to dinner as soon as I can.
We are going to talk about her future.
