How does the 8C compare to modern Alfas?
While the Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione from 2007 to 2010 is a different era to Alfa Romeo’s current lineup. The 8C was a limited production GT car, with high performance, and modern Alfas like the Giulia and Stelvio are aimed at competing in mainstream luxury segments. Powered by a naturally aspirated V8 and carbon fiber body against turbocharged engines and more conventional materials found in current models. Both old and new are committed to style and driving pleasure, however. Comparing these Alfa Romeos prompts examination of the brand’s maturation, the sacrifice of exclusivity for mass appeal, and if any trace of 8C spirit remains in the current model range. It also encourages discussion about where Alfa Romeo is headed in the future and whether we’ll see another halo car such as the 8C in the coming years.
The modern Alfas are in a different league to the 8C. The new stuff is more mainstream luxury, while it's a proper exotic. The Giulia Quadrifoglio is a beast, but it doesn't have the same special sauce as the 8C, don't get me wrong.
