The Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione was first presented as a concept at the 2003 Frankfurt Motorshow. Designed by Wolfgang Egger at Centro Stile it is a nod to the Alfa Romeo cars of the 1950's and 60's. The production version was shown at the Mondial de l'Automobile 2006 receiving 1400 orders, for the limited production run of only 500. ). The production version is very similar to the concept, differances include a rear hinged hood, the use of Xenon front lights, a standard wiper system, a mesh side vent and its wheels which had a design that mimicked the cloverleaf logo. The carbon fibre body is fitted to a steel chassis, made by Italian company ITCA Produzione. Final assembly took place at the Maserati factory in Modena.

 

The car is powered by a Ferrari/Maserati derived cross-plane, wet sump V8 engine of 4691cc assembled by Ferrari with an output of 450 PS (444 bhp) mated to a six speed transaxle gearbox with computerized gear selection by means of paddles on the steering column and a limited slip differential.
