I think it reminds of the old Ferrari in front and rear.

Alfa Romeo Returns! 8C Competizione in America in 2008

After being absent from the US market since 1995, Alfa Romeo is finally coming back to America one year from now and they are returning with a bang! The opening salvo from Alfa will be the 8C Competizione, which has been appearing in Europe for several years now. Alfa is only building a grand total of 500 8Cs for the entire world with less than 100 of those coming here, and they will be the last of the series.
As part of the preview for this weekend's Meadow Brook Concours d'Elegance, Maserati North America boss Jim Selwa unveiled the 8C for the first time in North America in final production form. Befitting such a low volume car, it will command a commensurately high volume price. In Selwa's words, it will be "somewhere north of $200,000." The carbon fiber bodied Alfa has a 4.7L V-8 with 450 hp passing through a six-speed paddle-shifted transaxle. Needless to say, there is no wrong wheel drive silliness here.
Under the glass rear hatch resides some custom fitted leather luggage, including a special briefcase in it's own slot at the back. The 8C will be offered through a limited number of Maserati dealers with the highest rated outlets getting priority. After the 8Cs are all gone, the Alfa renaissance will continue with more mainstream models coming over in 2009. According to Maserati NA PR manager Jeff Ehoodin, the models that will be available will be announced at a later date. For those with a taste for Italian style, the 8C is a wonderful way to start.

Calm down dude. The search button wasn't working for me earlier today. Every time I'd go to the advanced search it wouldn't load. Look at my track record here, I ALWAYS post in previous threads if they exist.

I didn't have to use an advanced search to find it, just a regular search by typing "alfa romeo."
Yes, I've noticed your recent active activity in this forum. There've been some instances where I'd referenced the links to your threads whenever I saw a repost. If the topic already exists in the database, then I will point to it without holding a prejudice to a thread starter. It's not about who starts a thread but keeping it all organized.

I never use the regular search... I always use the advanced search so I never really thought about it I guess. Anyhow, it's resolved.I didn't have to use an advanced search to find it, just a regular search by typing "alfa romeo."
