    No Albert, I won't until you won't discuss it first, and post the images too.

    I don't think the front works very well in the pictures, but the rear seems quite successful.

    Your turn.

    The other way out, I like the curvaceous front end, while the rear seems a bit...fatty.
    The side view is a bit plain, while the C pillar looks straight from a Subaru Impreza. All in all I like it as I liked the 147 at first, then it grew on me.
    This could so the same.
    I don't like the red lights for the cockpit, I was for the white ones.

    This is the 147 replacement?

    I agree it is a bit BMWish.

    Is it just me or the interior smells of Bravo?

    Not really I think.
    More of bits and bites from th 8C's style, but the Bravo seems to be present only under the skin, in the interior.
    Chassis wise, there isn't much from the Fiat anymore.

    This isn't based on the Bravos platform? Or does it have the C-Evo (which if I'm not mistaken it's destined to underpin the next gen of Fiat C-segment cars)?

    C-Evo, that's right. So it's more related to the D-EVo rather than to the C. IIRC they (Alfa's) said this car has just 10% parts in common with the Bravo/Delta.

    I didn't like it before, but the more I look back at it, the more I like it.

    Hot hatches, other than the GTI, haven't done so well in the US.

    Sure, I wouldn't mind an Alfa in the US again. But I'm not sure how they'll present it to make it successful.

    This isn't a hot hatch, more like a normal premium hatch. There can be hot version in the future though.

    Hot hatch or premium hatch, both aren't really well received here.

    But this is not a hot hatchback. It's a normal hatchback, and it'll have several engine options.
