Does this even have a snowballs chance in hell of making it state side? I would love to see what the production version would look like because it has alot of nice things going for it but it is clearly a concept car. The front is alittle odd to me but the rest is perfect. I like the S2k like minimalist interior as well. It seems like car makers are trying to cram your entire home electronics into your car and it is nice to see a nice clean interior so I hope that doesn't change much. Bottom line I hope we start seeing some of these other car brands making it over here. We need some new blood.

^^^ I believe Alfa was involved with the Fiat / Chrysler merge thing that happened a couple years ago. Which is why the Fiat 500s are out and about state-side. Alfa Romeo is on the same boat, just hasnt released any cars over here yet. (From my understanding this is what happened)

So to answer your question, yes there is a snowballs chance that this will make it state-side.

Well in that case bring it on. The one thing I don't like is that I would have to go into a Chrysler dealer to look at one. I would also like to see what kinda of reliability these will have and if they are going to jack you on parts costs becuase its "Italian." Still the convertable/roadster market is dieing here in the US and this could be a good way to get other companies to consider the segment again.
