Three to be exact. Never seen one this close; next step is to see it even closer.

Sat in a 4c... if only I fit, I may have asked for a test drive.

There is not one single Alfa dealership in my entire province, and only one FIAT dealership :(

Not sure where these are headed to, but probably somewhere in the city, aka not near me.

Yeah, I saw one at first, then was pleasantly surprised to see two more. And I was like, “nifty!”

How’s the interior?

They’re just getting used to being towed. Part of the Alfa factory break-in procedure.

Given their shape and weight, I’m surprised they could be transported on the top deck of the carrier without simply flying off like a sheet of plywood.

Hellcat.

Well my biggest take away was it is small. The top of the windshield frame was right at eye level for me, and my knees where hitting the bottom of the steering column. It’s nicely appointed, leather all over. Did not knock on the dash or anything, but other than size I had no immediate complaints.

A tip of the hat then, to Alfa, for thoroughly testing the car in all circumstances. I doubt many other car companies do this.

They are using Italian magic obviously, :).

You haven’t seen a Hellcat?!

Nope. Sad, right?

Especially since that Challenger has a Hellcat badge.

..... which makes this even sadder because apparently I saw one in the wild and didn’t realize it.
