    Hi Jim,
    I had seen the picture on Jalopnik and only this morning it don on me!
    I said to myself I bet it is Jim's 8C.
    I knew it :)

    Enjoy.

    Wonderful car Jim, great complimen to your P4/5. I recently watched Jeremy Clarksons latest DVD "Thriller" where he stated that he really disliked how the car drove, have you seen the clip and can you comment on it? Or let's put it like this, what are the key things you think Alfa could've done better?

    I like it very much. What Jeremy thinks about anything really doesn't interest me.

    Damn, Nick. I was out of town recently, you mean to tell me there were TWO 8Cs on the truck that stopped by on Wednesday?! I guess that'll teach me never to leave town to further my sales career :)

    The 8C was on the DVD. Jeremy has never driven P 4/5 nor will he ever drive P 4/5.

    The car looks amazing, congrats Jim.

    One question though...are we going to start seeing Alfa dealers around the country, or are there already some that I just don't know of?

    The 8C will use a few select Ferrari/Maserati Dealers. In the NY area that's Miller Motorcars. Remember there will only be 70+ in the US.

    8C is an absolute knockout both inside and out (imho and only from the pics and videos I've seen). The sound is incredible on video I can't imagine how great it must be in person! What an experience it must be to drive, owners of this machine sure are a fortunate bunch.
