With the flurry of activity surrounding the US reveal of the Alfa 8c Competizione yesterday, we thought readers might be interested in seeing the car a more primal guise.

This footage of the Alfa testing on the Nürburgring shows the car in pre-launch trim, running the gamut of speeds from “all-out” to “getting passed by the A-class.” We’re sure that the Competizione’s fellow lappers appreciated the favor.

I don’t know which I want to get inside of more: the car or the model standing next to it.

Nice to see the Italian Supercar passed by an Opel. The horror.

Two things:
1. I agree with Andy.
2. Just so everyone knows… this car is pretty sexy. :-)

While the car is indeed beautiful, the vid did nothing to indicate it is a serious competition machine. It has more body roll than a double decker bus.

perhaps it having excessive body roll and not seeming terribly fast is why it’s being tested at the world’s premier track for suspension tuning?

just a thought.

The 8C sounds surprisingly like a Ford V8. Which is to say, it sounds marvelous!
