    This is apparently what the new Alfa Romeo 149 which goes on sale in 2008 may look like:

    It looks like the love child between a Porsche Cayenne and a 147 imo. :eek: :eek:

    Any opinions?

    I usually like new Alfa shapes, but that's not hectic.

    The lights look gammy.

    It reminded me of this beauty at 1st glance :eek:

    I like it, except for the front lights. Hopefully they won't make it to production

    the back end looks like a testicle

    Chauffe, Marcel, chauffe!


    Don't like the front lights. Will hold judgement until the final version is released

    I think the front light are alright. Design generally looks quite good. I think the worst part is the rear quarter panel which looks like a big expanse of metal and makes the back wheel look tiny.

    I have never been a fan of the 147's styling (esp the post facelift) so would probably prefer the 159.

    I second the cross eyed look. Back looks fine to me, don't have a pic of the back of the Brera handy but looks similar?

    Is that their take on the McLaren SLR look? :D
