I love the fascia. I really hope this translates over into the lineup/production models. Based on it's shape, this could very well be a preview of a new "Brera successor".
 
Its nice, but I don't think it is as good as the current design theme that Alfra has rocking in the 159 (though it is better than the one that the Mi.To has).
 
When I saw it I instantly mistook it for a Saab concept car, the only thing Alfa about this is the small grille. Seriously its the Aero X!

I much prefer the 8C, MiTo design language. That should be the way the whole range looks. The Brera style also looks good and both styles are very distinctive. This concept looks really generic.

I actually thought I was looking at a BMW.

(waits for someone to say: duuuude... they're totally different... yes, they're different in a lot of ways... but the net effect is the same...)

They are similar, but aside from open window work wrapping around the body (something more and more common with recent concept vehicles), and them both being white in color, their similarities kind of end there.

Both the 8C, and the MiTo take a few small ques from the current design language, and run with it wildly different directions. If a new/redesign 8C surfaces, and this car represents the non-supercar/compact vehicles in the lineup, then you wouldn't have anything to worry about. Just conjecture, on my part however. I don't know what direction Alfa will go in, in the years to come.

You beat me to it... That is exactly what I was thinking.


Its still a good-looking concept, and I dig the glass on the side of the car. Still, it doesn't come off as something that is as "organic" as the current Alfa design. Not bad though, but I'd like to see it toned down to "hey we can build this" level.
 
That design is so awesome. It will be painful to see how much the production version will be watered down.
 
Mandalorian armor works. Clone Trooper does a little better.

Well, the first generation Clone Troopers anyway.
