The car is absolutely gorgeous, if it only came with a manual transmission. With only 50 or so coming to USA I definitely think every one will sell. Why the big price difference between a few though (300K - 329K)?

All of you naysayers will be even more shocked when you see what this car will trade for in 20 years. This car will definitely be a collectible.
As most know on this forum, I'm not an Italian car fan by any means, but I've spent some time checking out the Alfa 8C (a friend just bought one) and it is beautiful. It's an exercise in design aesthetics, and even though it's performance is garbage, as Jeremy Clarkson pointed out, it doesn't matter when a car is that beautiful. Art does not need to serve a functional purpose.
It's like asking, would you rather have 1 Ferrari 250 GTO or 20 Enzo's?
A smart collector and true connoisseur would definitely say 250 GTO!
I love functionality, like the amazing machine that the GT2 is. But for Sunday cruising, the 8C would make a great choice.
