Alfa Romeo officials have said that this <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/production-alfa-romeo-4c-now-rumored-to.html">may happen sometime in 2013</a>, but with the Italian brand, one can never take these statements for granted – Alfa's on and off return to the U.S. market is a prime example… Well, while we're waiting for the Italians to give us a date on the only interesting model it has in store for us , a driver in Italy spotted a camouflaged prototype of the 4C coupe -ahem- stranded on the side of a road. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/12/oh-oh-someone-just-ditched-alfa-romeo.html#more">Read more »</a>

The Giulia that was launched in the early 1960s is one of those cars. Weighing just 1,000 kg (2,205 pounds), it was powered by an alloy DOHC four-cylinder petrol engine in 1.3- and 1.6-liter displacements with power outputs ranging from 74 to 100HP, coupled to a four or five-speed manual gearboxes. At the time, the trend of updating models nearly three years after launch and then releasing a replacement in another two to three years was non-existent. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/10/memory-lane-classic-1970s-alfa-romeo.html#more">Read more »</a>

Which is probably why the VW Group has showed such an interest in the firm. Too bad the Fiat Group never really allocated the sources or the time to rebuild and refocus the famed Italian brand as a real premium automaker.

With a brief to design a car that would be “insensitive to the wind”, Touring’s designers created the now famous, <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/search/label/Alfa%20Romeo/">Alfa Romeo</a> 1900-based C52 Disco Volante racing concept back in 1952. Commemorating the 60th anniversary of the impressive concept, Touring Superleggera unveiled the Disco Volante 2012 at the <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/02/carscoop-to-z-guide-to-2012-geneva.html">82nd Geneva Motor Show</a> which will be produced in a limited number. <a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZnzlmgFq6Gw/T1fznp10fOI/AAAAAAAG9-c/rosNcFZXVKA/s1600/Alfa-Romeo-Disco-Volante-2012-1.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5717306114542173410" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-ZnzlmgFq6Gw/T1fznp10fOI/AAAAAAAG9-c/rosNcFZXVKA/s200/Alfa-Romeo-Disco-Volante-2012-1.jpg" style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; Border: 1px solid rgb(51, 51, 51); cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 133px;"></a>It’s a two-seater coupe with a front-central (i.e. placed behind the front axle) engine and a transaxle drivetrain. The new Disco Volante features an integrated front bonnet and wings and a distinctive rear end, while at the same time borrowing some details from the 1952 original like the partly covered front wheels and the pronounced waistline. <a href="http://carscoop.blogspot.com/2012/03/touring-superleggera-dances-to-tunes-of.html#more">Read more »</a>
