Design and desire: Alfa 8C Competizione - The car in a nutshell

So, to sum up?
Very fast, very beautiful, very exotic, very dramatic, very Italian.

Essential facts
Top speed 181mph, 0-62mph 4.2 seconds, average fuel consumption 17.9mpg, CO2 emissions 377g/km.

Do ask...
'What's the chance of Alfa building some more?'

The answer is no, but there will be an open-topped Spider, another run of 500 cars, probably in 2009.

Don't ask...
'Where can I buy one?' 'How green is it?' 'Will there be a diesel?'
