Alfa Romeo 8C Spider

Alfa shows off its 8C Spider, ahead of its Geneva launch

Alfa Romeo will be unveiling its 8C Spider at Geneva next month. Only 500 units will be made, as with its stunning 8C Competizione counterpart, and the car’s expected to be sold out within days.

The Spider users the same 450bhp 4.7-litre V8 as in the coupe, and power is channelled to the rear wheels through a six-speed paddle shift gearbox. A dashboard-mounted button drops the twin-layered fabric roof. Alternative roof colours can be chosen to personalise the car.
