Although we're unlikely to ever see the 8C in production, it's wonderful to witness Alfa Romeo experimenting with previously successful design elements in modern form. After all, the brand has such a deep and rich heritage to pull from it should never run out of 'new' ideas.

With such a rich history, it's great to see Alfa Romeo modernizing successful classic designs. (Photo: Alfa Romeo)
