J. Hansen gets a most honorable no-prize for reminding me of new developments concerning my other obsession:

The ItalDesign-styled [Alfa Romeo] Brera concept coupe that was shown at Geneva in 2002 was such a hit that both this new 2+2 coupe--the successor to the GTV--and the new 159 ape the styling.

Assuming Alfa ever makes it back, everyone is now saying they'll be bringing this thing with them. Unfortunately the rumored price point (around $40,000) will put it far out of my range. Still, I can dream, can't I?
