Having only a laymans knowledge of Alfa's, I'll ask the obvious questions.
What is it? How much does it cost? Those shots are obviously computer generated....are any production pics available? What drivetrain?

Damn, looks much pricier than that, so I think I agree with your OP.

The day Alfa romeo return to the US, I'm gonna sell my 8 and get one.
Been drooling over the 156 , GT and Brera for some time now.
Dont think they plan on return for atleast another 2-3 years.

That car is clearly a rip off. It has tires, doors, seats, a transmission, etc...all the things an RX-8 has. Who else thinks that car looks like an RX-8?
