The Alfa flagship the 8C Competizione was launched last week at teh paris motor show. Here are some official pics. Doesn't it look tasty?

4.7 liter V8 - 450bhp and 470lb.ft of torque. Rwd transaxle layout. Carbon fiber panels 0-100 in 4.2 secs, top speed 290km/h. Price 133,000 Euro.............My dream car!

Wow! That's gorgeous. Its refreshing to see some curves, and WHAT curves!

Got to disagree on the back end "ucscsades". I think its a really clean look for a car, and I like the simple oval approach. Beautiful!

Alfa will be back in the US by 2008. 50 8Cs are coming your way (through the Maserati dealers I think). Full range will follow.

At last I think they have 'proper' management that will do their great cars justice!
