New photos of the Bertone-designed Alfa Romeo Pandion surfaces on the web after the car’s initial teaser sketch was released last week.

The Osprey-class Pandion is one of three design proposals being submitted during the Geneva Motor Show as a potential replacement for the Alfa 159. The concept, also developed to celebrate the 100th year anniversary of Alfa, looks like a cross between the Saab Aero X and the BMW Vision EfficientDynamics Concept. Despite this, the four-seat  Pandion sports a bold front end, extensive glasswork and an insane rear diffuser.

The 1000 kilograms concept is reportedly based on the 8C Competizione. This means power will likely be provided by a 4.7-liter V8…

Breaking news from the auto-industry: Alfa Romeo will produce a limited edition 8C GTA.

Similar to the 1965 Giulia Sprint GTA, the 8C GTA will feature modish styling and additional performance. The exceptional exterior includes hood vents, carbon fiber bodywork, and an “ice-white” front bumper with larger air intakes.

As regards to this important factor which is the performance, Alfa Romeo will affix a new ECU module, lower-friction engine components and a revised rev limiter. This would enable the 4.7-liter V8 engine to produce over 500bhp (the standard 8C produces 450bhp). Other fine-tunings include a 150kg reduction in weight, a sportier suspension, and a modified exhaust system with three tailpipes.

Thanks to all…

Alfa Romeo Brera Looks Handsome But Not Powerful At All

The Alfa Romeo Brera is a stunning coupe with sharp lines and a big butt. While the bold styling makes it a certified head turner it is nevertheless a non conformist auto that may not fit everyone’s taste. This auto does not offer enough cabin space much less decent seating space for children. The leather seats are nice-looking but not practical at all as they are set too high making the seating and driving position uncomfortable.

The Alfa Romeo Brera may be a winner in the looks department but unfortunately the performance disappoints. It is powered by a 2.2-Liter engine producing 185 horsepower. It is however equipped with good brakes and…

The Alfa Romeo 159 will bowl you over with its stunning looks and strong engines but there’s one setback—the price. At an estimated base price of $42,000 the Alfa Romeo 159 is a bank breaker especially considering the present economic situation. If you bring an extra load with you whenever you drive your car then the limited space at the back is also a turn off.

Red is a lucky color and you might find yourself lucky with the Alfa Romeo 159’s DOHC 24-valve V-6 direct fuel injection engine with 238 pound-feet of torque at 4500 rpm. The 159 is a three-door coupe with a four-passenger capacity so you might think twice about…

The Alfa MiTo GTA will be unveiled during the Geneva Motor Show.  What’s new you may ask considering that almost all brands are set to launch their new models during next month’s car show.

The Mito GTA is however one hot hatch considering that it will draw inspiration from the 8C Competizione with a sportier appearance. The Alfa MiTo GTA comes in a 1.8-Liter turbocharged four-cylinder direct injection engine with 240 horsepower. With this and other features the Mini Cooper JCW might just get an unwelcome bump.

Just like all the other Alfas, the Alfa MiTo GTA will be wearing a GTA badge. It is touted to be the most powerful auto in…
