New Models: Alfa 8C to get GTA treatment

The 450bhp 8C Competizione coupe is about to come to the end of its limited production run, though Alfa is now ramping up to start making the 8C Spyder convertible (already sold out) once coupe production ends. This limited-edition GTA coupe, however, could bring back the hard-top body-style for a last hurrah; 100 only will be made, we hear, and you can bet that the world's wealthy car collectors are already placing their deposits.
