New Alfa Spider

Fabritzo · 2006-02-04 00:32:07

I know there's a few Alfa fans about this board, serious wheels have the new Spider up and my first impressions of it are good. There's more about it here http://www.seriouswheels.com/top-2006-Alfa-Romeo-Spider.htm

Disappointing. It looks ungainly, and too much like a chopped 159. Why must all cars from the same company look identical?

Very pretty.

Is it a cloth or folding metal roof?

I think it looks great.

Too bad it's probably FWD.

Quite similar to the Maserati Spyder in profile.

Alll a matter of opinion tbh. IMO the alfa 147, gt, and 159, (i'll agree the gt and the 159 are near identical) are some of the nicest cars around at the moment.

And the brera, thank god they are gonna manufacture that one, stunning car.

Yeah a bit disappointed too. No wow-factor for me compared to other recent Alfas, like the GT, or to a lesser extent, the Brera
