The profile doesn’t look too exciting but I’m really curious to see what it will be like, hopefully a 4C that drives more convincingly and for a good discount

Is the new Alpine mid-engined? Or rear-engined like the original? (Rear-engined things ftw!)

I’m sorry to report it’s mid-engined

It will look pretty much exactly like the Celebration concept:

Which is to say, really really cool. Should be lightweight too, at around 1200kg IIRC. Sounds fun!

The front half almost kinda has a Porsche look to it from that angle.

The front looks a little bit last-week but it does have a good looking bottom

I really like this. To bad I will probably never be able to own one.

Alpine has been coming for a long time. Will believe when I see.

I do want them to come though. Bad.
