Friendstar Supercharged September 16, 2010 Share September 16, 2010 (edited) hey.... I've been hearing raving feedback from my friends on how amazing and wondrous the Alfa 8C and Merc SLS AMG look. but when i spoke to them on a personal basis... they told me that their impressions have been highly influenced by the car magazines, esp those from UK and US. Imho, i think these two rides look horrendously ugly. I've no doubt that these two cars will give you the ride of your life, but aesthetically, they don't look appealing to me. As compared to mercedes SL. and Alfa Brera. vs ================================================================================ ================ vs Your opinions?

SimonTan 2nd Gear September 16, 2010 Share September 16, 2010 Things that are unreacheable are mostly lust after. Just ask those millionaires who owned Lambo and Farrari, they might not think that SLS or Brera is great, as they can afford it. And is entitled to think one step more then normal people. For me..if anyone can give me a SLS, I will suck their body part for one full year! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cerano 1st Gear September 16, 2010 Share September 16, 2010 (edited) to be honest... i think the murcielago looks like crap compared to the gallardo. btw Simon, SLS is in same league as Ferrari and Lambo but ya i think SLS looks terrible compared to the SL Edited September 16, 2010 by Cerano Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As compared to mercedes SL. and Alfa Brera. vs ================================================================================ ================ vs Your opinions? I love the looks of both the SLS and 8C over the SL and Brera (to be honest I even prefer the 159 to the brera exterior looks wise). The SLS is damn retro looking yet with a modern touch Its like the ba$tard child of a GTR and old gullwing 300SL As for the 8C, tell me if you prefer the car in my pic over your pic of the IMHO pudgy looking brera I take it you don't really like retro looking stuff though, coz thats what both the 8C and SLS do have in common looks wise.

Roh96 6th Gear September 16, 2010 Share September 16, 2010 I prefer Alfa overall look. I find SLS front grill and headlamp don't blend very well, one is retro and one is modern. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hub_n_mona 1st Gear September 16, 2010 Share September 16, 2010 beauty is really in the eye of the beholder.. like TS, I also think the merc SL is better looking than the gullwing SLS which somehow looks to be an 80s retro car I like the looks of both the alfa but actually prefer the 8C look more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Etnt Turbocharged September 16, 2010 Share September 16, 2010 IMO 8C looks better in real life than in the pics. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrispie 5th Gear September 17, 2010 Share September 17, 2010 (edited) too bad 8C is fully snapped up round the world liao.... you can still buy it from EA. there are 2 units in singapore that are available for sale. But being LHD, usage is limited. As for look wise.. i like any of the cars TS posted.. and yes.. the 8C looks a lot better up close... have time, do visit EA to molest them.. heard the rims alone cost nearly 18k EUR.
