I would love to have those same qualities in a sexier package.

Agreed. Not to mention an interior that wouldn’t make grown men cry and epileptics have a seizure.

One more thing though…Petrol engines up to 230HP instead of 155, from a 1.8 Turbo engine yet to be launched this year in the new Lancia Delta.

I love the MPG of the Mini and the driving dynamics. I would love to have those same qualities in a sexier package.

Subaru Tribeca grill
So is that an outdoors 69? ;-)

Hot little car. I like the reference to the Competizione C8, and it looks much better than the angular look some alfas (147, for example) have.

Well it’s already got the new T-Bird taillights, inverted Subaru Tribeca grill and a front-end underbite. I guess it’s almost ready for the U.S. Add in legendary Italian build quality and maybe a few Pontiac fake scoops & strakes and you’ve got it.

Very nice, except the name…

Especially liking the view from the side.

Alfa has been playing with plans to return to the U.S. in the next few years. This car would most definitely be on sale here if it actually comes to fruition.

Detroit1701,

If either of the American car companies or Cerebrus were to slip any part of their corporate tallywacker into this car, it would be the kiss of death.

Hey Cerebrus, you have no desirable product in your pipeline. Make a deal, get this thing imported, and at least draw some foot traffic into your morgues, I mean dealerships.

That’s a sharp little ride. I’ll add it to my list of cars I’m disappointed we won’t get in the US.

I think Alfa could make a bologna sandwich sexy..

Very nice! But let me guess…. won’t be available state-side?

Alfa needs to come back to the United States “pronto.” Alfa probably needs a partner in the U.S. Ford? GM? Alfa could make the body, ship it to the U.S, and maybe one of the big 2.8 could supply the market-specific engines and other components.
