Based on the Brera Concept from 2002, it's going to be unveiled at Geneva next month, and will (I guess) replace the GTV.
I think it's one of the best looking cars to come out in recent times, don't you agree? :D

Not as bad as other new cars no, but I do not like that thick C-pillar, I drive a Peugeot 206 and its C-pillar is relative thin compared to other cars now but the rear-three-quarter visibility in town with bike-riders, right-turns and reversing out of crowded supermarket parkinglots is very unpleasent.

Btw was the Brera the one designed by the danish design-student or was that the car that led to part of the 147?

Nice, but it would have been even nicer with the Maserati 294kW 4.2L V8 powering it. :) (like in the concept version).

Bye bye cramped GTV. :wave:

Looks awsome, but I think an Alfa GTA V6 motor would be enough, or one of their diesels even.

Our golf has a decently thick C pillar, so far I haven't found a blind spot with it.
