Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione
A renaissance moment for Alfa Romeo, the 8C represented a return to rear-wheel-drive with a premium sports car.
Styling was reminiscent of great Alfa sportscars of the past: circular tail lamps, long bonnet (hood), fastback coupe shape, and famous heart-shaped grille and flanking mustache-shaped inlets.
Power came from a derivative of the premium FIAT division - Ferrari/Maserati. A vee-eight of 4.7 litres, 450 PS (331 kW) and 354 lb.ft (480 Nm).
Production was limited to a strict 500 units. Styling themes were continued into various volume production Alfar Romeos, the MiTo, Giulietta and 4C.
This Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione coupe has been built miniland-scale Lego for Flickr LUGNuts 76th Build Challenge - 'Viva Italia' - celebrating all things Italian and automotive.
Bella Machina!
