I can see TZ1 & 2, Canguro, Disco Volante, 33 Stradale and the 6C - 8C models of the past in this car's bodywork. The tail overhang is a bit too short to pack the thing with enough luggage to take a good long road trip with my significant Sweet Thang, which is surely the best use of a car like this. I used to think the 550 - 575 Maranello was the coolest car that had come along in years. Not any more. Hey Alfa! Lose the supercharger and I'll buy one.

r u telling me this is not an alfa, or a rip off pontiac? just look at the 1967 Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 Stradale and then say to me again Adrian, that this is a pontiac/bmw rip off and that it doesnt look like an alfa.
 Too long?

What are you talking about man? This car has one of the shortest overhangs I've seen. Where do you want the wheels to be? Right in the freakin grille? Jeeze...now I'm no expert on Alfa so you may be right about it not looking like an Alfa should. I however, think it looks gorgeous, and has a bad ass blown V-8. Everything is fine if you ask me, especially those front overhangs.
 Alfa, you've done better ... so whatsup?

Swoopy curves and daring design motiffs but Alfa has done better jobs with their production cars so this is frankly a weak effort. The front overhangs are too long. Making this look more American than Italian. In fact its almost a Pontiac rip-off. The front also looks like a cetain BMW roadster from Chris Bangles' recent Halloween outfits... The rear is a blatant cut-and-paste from a TVR car. Yes, Alfa, good effort but your designers aren't getting original here. An Alfa that doesn't look Alfa and instead looks like everybody else' body parts? That's it for me.
 Another Amazing Alfa

Alfa Romeo just keeps churning out more fantastic looking cars and with 298kW it looks like theyll perform well too. I can see Alfa Romeo's future with this car- their line-up should consist of: 147, 156, 166, GTV/Spider (as a softer coupe/cabriolet), Brera (as a luxurious touring GT coupe), Sprint GT (as a small 4 seater 'pose-mobile') and the 8c Compitizione (as a hard-out sports car). Now all they need is the Kamal SUV and their line up is almost complete!
 Alfa...please make more sportscars

The Alfa 8C Competizione looks good although I still think the Brera is the best Alfa in years. If they come out with this, I hope it only means that they will start making thoroughbred sportscars again. Alfa needs to go back to its roots to relive it's legendary name again. Then I hope to see them back in F1 someday. Alfa, come back to greatness!!!!

"Competizione looks alike 33 Stradale and this is good news. 33 Stradale was an exraordinary attractive car, but it is so rare that only real Alfa enthusiasts know something more about it. Competizione looks very... ""drivable"". I hope that it handles well. Very curious about interior - let it be like Brera, this would br fantastic. I would like more real Alfa engine, rather than Maseratis, and finally, hoping that it would not be just one succesful exam for someone in Centro Stile."
 WOW!

Well, i thought that Alfa Romeo had done their best when they brought out the Brera, but i guess i was wrong. they've definetly outdone themselves this time. and it's also great that they've brought back the heritage of the 8C name. congrats alfa, u really got the job done this time!!!
