Is the 8C Spyder too sexy?

The 8C Coupe was sexy enough it nearly hurt, then Alfa released this pic.....now it hurts!!

compared to.....

And all 500 £120,000 examples are sold

It's a bit better. If they keep improving they might not be vomit inducing in time

They need to lose the Teledials though

The coupé is significantly better looking.

Dr House · 9 Apr 2008 at 07:22

saw the coupe a few months back in a Car show, really really nice looking car but not for 120k

danza · 9 Apr 2008 at 07:35

£120K for an Alfa?

MADNESS!!

Gorgeous looking machine though. Coupe is nicer than the spyder.

Indeed

Now whats that Old Alfa with the really long bonnet that was in that quiz a few months back? That has to be the best Alfa ever :cool:

Why? It's gorgeous, extremely limited production and effectively a maserati underneath.

I want the spyder

Spyder is great, don't think much of the coupe though.

james.miller · 9 Apr 2008 at 10:17

that car is much greatness. but i keep looking at the roof of the coupe and thinking its not quite finished :confused:

something is missing.

Morba · 9 Apr 2008 at 10:34

the spyder is looking very enzo/boxster/slk mishmash.

I like it though, but then i adore the coupe.

One of the best looking cars ever made, seeing it go round the track for testing was amazing

Modjo · 9 Apr 2008 at 13:27

Engine: 4.7-litre V8, 450bhp @ 7000 rpm
: 480nm @ 4750rpm
0-60mph: 4.5 seconds
Top speed: 190mph (est)

Its the same engine that's in the new Maserati Gran Tourismo apparently, which is a good looking motor as well
