Now THAT is what I'm talking about! I would for sure drive that ... looks like a very nice update to the classic lines. Sadly, I'm sure it will be nothing like that, but we can only hope!

Also the Abarth will get a modified Alfa engine:

"The aluminium 1750 engine from the Alfa 4C had been hotly tipped to power the Abarth version. However, this engine is considered an Alfa engine so will not appear in the Abarth in this form. Instead, it is likely to have the bore and stroke adapted to give it a unique capacity from its Alfa application."
