ACAPULCO AL 2 Report post Posted July 12, 2011 it's not due until 2013 now, let's hope it's a looker. some of the early renderings were a bit gruesome tbh, thank god marchionne told them to go back to the drawing board and make it more 'alfa' anyone got any more news??

jhc 28 Report post Posted July 13, 2011 Are there any 'official' concept pics? I imagine a giulietta with a boot... which could work, the new styling is growing on my the more I see it. Saw a giulietta in the flesh the other day and photos don't do it justice, its a lovely looking beasty up close. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WTI 59 Report post Posted July 14, 2011 Dont think any official concepts were relesed and have to agree with AL some of the renderings were shite The giulietta does look good in the flesh saw a black one parked up and was impressed I do hope the giulia looks unlike the mito and giulietta though.

jhc 28 Report post Posted July 14, 2011 That would do nicely I think the mito/giulietta front end was always going to be a bit of a let down. They got it sooo right with the brera/159 that it was almost impossible to follow that with an improvement. I highly doubt the sharp edges of the brera front would have fared too well in the pedestrian friendly safety crap though Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

divadiva 15 Report post Posted July 22, 2011 Having previously owned a 159 before (which is a glamourpuss of a motor) can honestly say I love it and would consider one of these as our family car Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Smaky 73 Report post Posted October 2, 2011 I've been following this in the alfa trade net and it's been delayed again, ealiest production run will start in Nov 2012, following the ceasation of the 159 Super (2.0 JTDm) run in sep 2012, not in granite but it's the current word on the street, The images above were thought too Volve S60 ish for Alfa and it is nothing like that in reality at the back, there are test cars out and about and if your near Arese you may see one in the blankets.

Anjenha 44 Report post Posted January 20, 2012 Seen the most recent concept this morning. Unfortunately I can't capture the image on my phone. I doubt the car will come out anything like it, it was very pretty but out of Alfa's current style direction. Long bonneted, much like the current BMW Z4. Styled in a way that at standstill it looked like it was moving, very fluid. But I can't capture pics so thus was a pointless post. There's info on delays here though Http://www.carmagazine.co.uk/secret-new ... 2-scooped/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
