Extra large pics just for you!!!

Alfa Romeo at Geneva’s 78th International Car Show

Alfa Romeo once again unveils its new models onto the world market at the Geneva event. Indeed, following on from the Alfa 159 and Brera in 2005, the 159 Sportwagon and Spider in 2006, and its Personalisation Programme going by the name of “Alfa Unica” in 2007, it is now the turn of the alluring Alfa 8C Spider.
Undisputed centre stage on the stand, this new car inherits its coupe sibling’s winning formula that shook the motoring world. Put together by Alfa’s Centro Stile and production limited to 500 cars, this new open top immediately entices with that unmistakable “Italian elegance”, a unique and inimitable style that hints at its typically sporty Alfa handling.
Under the bonnet is a powerful 8 cylinder 4.7 litre engine producing 450 HP, matched to a 6 speed robotic gearbox, the new Alfa 8C Spider is truly beautiful, powerful and rock solid, where its gracious lines and dimensions gel perfectly with typical Alfa Romeo engineering and drive-ability. Needless to say, alongside this attractive Spider is the Alfa 8C Competizione, the epitome of Alfa Romeo’s innovation in the fields of engines and engineering, heightened competitiveness and continuous technological research.

I hate convertables, but I think this one looks better than the hard top. I still dont prefer the styling of the 8C in general though. If I had the money it wouldnt be on my list. The Brera is still the best looking Alfa by far in my book

True, looks better than coupe but... (everybody keep saying thats is so beautiful and i don't know if it is because they think so or rather because people all around are saying that)
sth is wrong with front lights and wheels. It is stunning but sth is still misssing...

Something's missing? This car's got everything! Looks, power, exclusivity, heritage, sound... It's beautiful as beautiful should be. Classic proportions, curves and lines in harmony. And what's wrong with the wheels? They're classic Alfa design (reinterpreted).

I usually like coupes more, but this spider looks nice. I'd like to see it in a titanium color though.
