This just looks stupidly cool

Doubt its anywhere near as fast as it says it is becuase the standard 3.2 is dog slow by virtue of the fact its so heavy. Apparently you cant get anywhere near the quoted 0-60 time.

Still, the power should at least make the car usable now, as you cant argue with the looks :)

standard 3.2 alfa, dog slow? really.........
 
What is the claimed figure? AutoExpress got 60 in 6.7s from a 3.2 J6 i believe,not sure if its the same setup/weight but its hardly slow if it is..
 
It is a very heavy car, both that and the Brera are seriously lardy (1650kg for the Brera V6 Q4, 1710kg for the Spider I believe) which is pretty poor IMO.

They both have the GM-based V6 too, they canned the old Arese V6 due to emissions. Autodelta seem to have once again made them the cars they should have been, the Brera J5 is a lovely bit of kit too:

My Alfa comes back from Autodelta in 2 weeks ;)
 
There aren't that many V6 3.2L N/A cars that are that quick to 60. Between 6-7s is pretty usual for the size of cars that it goes into. Even the R32 is around 6 or so seconds. It's a different type of engine characteristic anyway, more linear torque delivery and generally more useable power.
 
saw this on PH the other day, looks amazing, standard spider looks brilliant anyway, but this thing just has that added beauty, and of course the extra power is a nice bonus.
