2014 Alfa Spider a loser

Post by spidernut »

With Alfa Romeo talking about their return to the US with the Alfa Romeo Spider, I keep hoping that they'll revive the Fiat Spider here. Alfa showed their revised concept for the 2014 Alfa Romeo Spider which is based on the Pininfarina 2uettottanta concept car. Which do you like better the production version or the concept car?

I'd be interested in the concept car but not the production version that looks like a grocery-getter.

Id have to agree here. It kinda looks like the last t- bird.

front looks like an Audi, rear a Miata. a more retro style would have been way cooler. like a redone Duetto.

Would like to see the guys from TopGear (UK - BBC) get a hold of the production version. The concept car is much more alluring. MAYBE... just maybe... they're holding the concept version for Fiat! (I can dream, can't I?)

The concept car looks cool, the production car not at all. I'd rather get the 2014 Miata.
