They have only made 8 so far and 7 are driven as everyday cars.  I'm 80% sure I want one.
Gull Wing doors, 4sec 0-60, 650kg, cheep as hell to service and run.

pah come on when have I cared how a car looks, the MR2 looks like a frog.  The downforce that front and rear make is incredable, it grips the road like it was glued to it  s:) :) s:)

That's exactly what I was thinking when I bought mine  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Doesn't really matter, since I don't have to look at it when I'm having fun IN the car...
Sure you can live without 500hp, but it\'s languishing.

So true!

I almost ignored the car after seeing the first pics, but then I started to see rave reviews about it in the net...and after a testdrive I just had to get it.

hmmm, kinda looks like a (slightly!) more sensible 340R   s:D :D s:D
and only 22K as well - the choice of cars gets harder!!   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  
the silver one on the site looks a little like a zonda (or is that just me?   s:lol: :lol: s:lol:  )

EDIT: Hmmm, resizing that avatar has made it looks really shite and blocky   s:? :? s:?    s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:

Looks like they started the design at the back working forwards and ran out of paper, paint or money.

Have to aggree.  I'm sure the DZ is a great car but I'd be going for the G4 every time.

Besides, there is only one car out there that I desire, just one and it's this:






Now that's a pretty car.
[size=75]Porsche Cayman - Curvy (almost) perfection
Juno SSE-CN - Bonkers track thing
Mercedes 190E - Das Uberbarge still going strong[/size]

It's called the 8C.  Not as nice as the Brera though.  I wonder if it will make it into production.

That Alfa is gorgeous, but not sure its a gorgeous as the Brera, which is going to be the next GTV, albeit slightly modified. I hope they don't wreck it..........stunning thing........

Sorry John, I have to disagree with you.  The Brera will not be the next GTV.  The Brera will be a £100,000 supercar (if it ever makes it to production).

However, irrespectively of whether it will make it to production or not, it's styling will be cascaded down to the rest of the range, as can be seen in the new 156...
