It misses Sub-zero because it's a new Alfa, and new Alfa's & reliability go hand in hand in the way water and oil do.... so being stranded on I-95 in your 100k italian car is not cool...

This being said, it's arguably the best looking car since the DB9 came out, every girl on earth would jump in with zero hesitation despite your appearance, it sucks at what it was designed to do... which is be a sports car which is uncool and you look like the italian version of James Bond stepping out of one




It's a solid cool

I'd say the reliability is quite better than old Alfas, I haven't heard of any issues with the 8C. I have heard how amazing it is and how cool of a car it is to even see.

I agree with everyone else, sub-zero for sure.
