I like it, as far as these things go.

So they do, that looks exactly like a brera or spider

Re: Mito Spyder

i do not like the mito hatch at all (going by pics ive seen) - i think it looks way too much like the other mini suv copycat out there.

the convertible tho, thats a whole different thing, cant believe how good it looks

Re: Mito Spyder

I like the look of that! So does this represent the rumoured 'Duetto' Spider that is meant to mark Alfa Romeo's Centenary in 2010?

Re: Mito Spyder

I hope it looks really good, but I will reserve judgement until I see it in the metal.

Has it got a folding metal roof? If it has it might be more of a hairdressers car.

not saying i would have it over a GTA/V6 or whatever - just saying it looks good.

from those pics it dont look 'girly' at all imo. Audi TT's etc etc do.

Re: Mito Spyder

Well I don't think it looks like a hairdressers car! I know 'white' is now 'in' but I would like to see it in the metal and perhaps in red or black. And, at least it looks as though they'll make it! When was the last time Alfa made two concurrent soft tops? The old Guilia Spider and the GTC, back in the mid-sixties?? oopss, where did I put those scissors?

Re: MiTo Spyder is really FUGLY!!

It's not that bad. If you fellas don't like it, that's fine.. judging by what Alfas you drive you're not the target market.

I'd still only consider the tin-top though.

Re: Mito Spyder

Is it a soft-top, or a foldable CC type 'hardy' top then? Looks a cutie, but there again so do the variations available of the 500, difficult choice for mini purchasers.: I'm talking welded roofs of course, as the 500 isn't available as a drop-head, convertible is it?:

Re: Mito Spyder

I posed the question about 2 weeks ago: why don't Alfa make a 4 seat convertible? Loks like they do now!!

If it looks like that, and is priced as they claim, then i'll have one in black please. Its the kind of car i could talk 'er indoors into having, should just about be practical enough as a second car, and i'll finally break my Alfa cherry

You can't beat driving along with the roof down, sun beating down on you (for a couple of days a year ).

I like it, and i'm not a hairdresser

Re: Mito Spyder

I think it should be a two-seater. I cannot imagine a small convertible with enough space for four people and their luggage, no matter how minimal. It would look better too.
