I think my Mi.To has found it's replacement before I ever got it...

Meet the new 149.

BRB...

edit: After posting my topic, my signature has changed to what it is :lol::rofl::roflmao:... is this a coincidence?

edit 2: it's a 149, not a 147 as I initially posted :blush:

The front of that car looks like some sort of stupid rat or squirrel.

Ugly as...

The rear is epically aggressive. Front is too 'mi-to'ish
 
I'm guessing i'm going to be in the minority and say that I don't really like it.
 
I don't like it either. I much more prefer the 159/brera way of styling. Proper alfas that. 8c, mi-to, this... not so much.
 
Kinda reminds of of a crossover kinda thing like the Infinity EX (yes, I'll be the one to start it. :p). All cars in general are trying too hard to look tall.
 
ah much more like it, the front of mito was very awkward. This is more flowing and bit more aggressive. So any word when Alfa is coming back to US?
 
Ugh, that's a terrible front end. Don't tarnish the lovely 8C by trying to make everything look like it.

Nice wheels, though!
 
although I generally prefer the more linear and boxy designs, I really like the look of this.

same complaint as usual from me, too bad it's FWD.

I tink it looks kind of awkward. The 159 is much more handsome imo.
 
I think the front end is a lot better than the Mi.To, where the Mi.To was extremely awkward looking, this car seems to sort it out nicely, subtly. That rear end, however, is just... dear lord, it's handsome!

Conversely, I showed the pictures to a friend and he said that the nose reminded him of a Camel :(
 
Looks good!
I specially likes the back end, reminds me of a Punto.
 
Everything is perfect except the front.

I prefer the Brera styling philosophy. The 8C-Mi.To approach just look awkward to me. Alfa should have evolved the Brera's aggressive cues, instead of what I think is taking a step back and making a car that looks like a marmoset.

But that said, it's only the front, that rear particularly looks fantastic.
 
It's awful! :yucky: I'll take the Brera please..
 
I want to like it, I want to love it - and for the most part I do. I'm just not sure about that front. I adored the MiTo when it first launched, but as I saw more photos of it the front became more and more disappointing and bulbous - and that's what I fear this will be like once we get more angles of it.
 
Isn't it just a four door mi.to?.......................

Ok, so the tail lights are different and some lines are changed slightly, but still, if I couldn't see the pictures then I would be thinking it's something completely different by the comments contained in this here thread here.
