This week we peal back the covers on one of the most distinguished lines of cars ever produced: the Alfa Romeo.

There are only a few car brands and logos in the world that invoke the emotion and recognition that Alfa Romeo does. Its history dates back almost a century to 1910 and is littered with accolades from racing professionals and awards for its technological prowess and unrivalled engineering. Alfa Romeo is not just a company, it is a lifestyle and for many car enthusiasts, an institution. Alfa Romeo will no doubt be a car to watch for on the roads of Oahu this fall with Test Drive Unlimited.

Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

A pure expression of precise engineering, the 8C was unveiled at the Frankfurt Motor Show in 2004. The 8C is a perfect model of breathtaking design and performance, boasting 0-60 in 4.5 seconds. This two-seater comes equipped with 4.2 litre V8 (90°) turbo engine with a volumetric compressor. This autumn, when Atari delivers Test Drive Unlimited players can race this awesome machine at top speeds all over Oahu.

Alfa Romeo GT Coupe V6

Alfa Romero calls their GT coupe a perfect balance of passion and rationality, emotion and safety. We simply say “superb.” Under the hood lurks a luscious 240 horsepower engine with a six-gear manual transmission. Its 0-60 time is 6.7 seconds with top speeds at 150 mph. This is a truly magnificent car to cruise Oahu in!
