Did they really name it that?

Enorme brutta testicoli

Look at that, Kwilk got a car named after his testicle.

Would own for many reasons. Sadly, it's not available in the US.

Isn't that a Brera?

Well, they have cars called "Smart" for people who think they're smart, so I guess they could have a car like this too

As I clicked on the thread, that was word for word what I was thinking.

+1. Just can't get over the name!
You are not a true petrolhead until you have owned an Alfa.

I saw the 8C the other day... had under 600 miles on it... some guy bought it and brought it back to the dealer to sell on consignment...

For some 'amount of money > amount of sense'.

Every guy I've met who drives one is a wanker.

Somebody out there will say that about BMW, Porsche, Ferrari, etc... as well.

It's a run-of-the-mill Alfa Brera. See them every day here...that one is from March-September 2008. Where does the testicle bit come into it?

Regardless of what Jeremy Clarkson says, one thing is true: everyone I know who owns an Alfa (currently two, so it could just be coincidence) has had various mechanical and electrical faults. They do have nice interiors, though, and a great engine/exhaust note for a little 4-banger; the V6s are probably even better.

Why no American version then?
