Alfa’s 8C Competizione To Be Released In US

Sure, “Gorgeous” is one word, but if it had a middle-name, it would be Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione. Many car enthusiasts in 1995 were upset at Alfa’s stop to exporting cars to the US, but can now pop a cork at the fact that they are coming back. The first model is what you see below, first unveiled in 2003 and has hardly changed… a very good thing.

Offered here is a 4.7-litre V8, pushing out 450HP which slides the 8C right into the supercar category. 0-60 performance is not known, but it doesn’t matter. If you are in this car, you will want to go as slow as possible to give people a chance to stare. Start saving up your pennies now. All 20 million of them.
