Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

In case anyone from Alfa is listening, I really, really want an 8c Coupe - and if the waiting list has been reopened, can you please tell us about it!

(Now, just to arrange the old second mortgage, and we'll be in business!)

Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

Has the 8c been mentioned on Top Gear at all?

I so want one of these!

Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

im kinda surprised theres only a few crappy quality phone cam looking videos available of the 8c.. there were about 16? Sakiss.. proto-production models that were sold to a lucky few... somebody needs to get one of those things to Top Gear.. :P

Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

Absolutely stunning Alfa.

It looks like the designer had the opinion that all the music you need comes from the engine and the exhaust, otherwise he would have integrated the radio in the design: http://www.hellfire.it/raduniegare/2...s/image46.html

Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

Just back from our annual Italian holiday where we were lucky enough to find this 8c being filmed. It was being driven up and down the road through this village so we managed a few photos. The Brera's gorgeous but this looks even better. Sounded amazing too with the noise echoing off the buildings close to the road.

Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

Bigger pics please!
Perhaps through photobucket or something similar?

As they are now - they are cruelly teasing

Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

www.photobucket.com provides a free photo hosting service.
Its pretty straightforward to use, and resizes the photos for you easily.

Your photos in your post above are at 100x75 pixels in size, and 32K so are pretty teeny

But you can upload larger sized jpegs (the originals) to photobucket and just link to them from here.

As an aside: if you put image links in a post in the Image lounge, it will display them automatically, whereas in forum lounges like this viewers you have to click on the link.
(there is an insert picture icon on the advanced edit dialog that you can use to do this)

You pictures looks so good I think we should see a bit more detail

Cheers,
TB

I'm not a doctor - but I really do recommend braking later

Re: Alfa Romeo 8c Competizione

Thought I was doing well last year seeing disguised Breras out on test but this was something else.
Have put some photos on the following link:

Hope it works !
