Alfa 8C Competizione with 590 bhp
By Steven on Mar 29, 2008 in Car News, Supercars
From the very exclusive Alfa 8C Competizione coupé and cabriolet have only been 500 pieces built each. Because all pieces are long before production sold some people didn’t have the chance to buy the car they wanted. For them, the Italian auction site AutoScout 24 has something very nice online: a 8C Competizione with 590 bhp.
More power and even more exclusivity needs a pricetag and that’s not bad with € 380.000 (£ 300.100 - $ 600.300) which is over double of the price than the standard one. That price is shocking but when you get 140 bhp extra it might hurt your wallet less.

Is that 140 bhp added by the factory or aftermarket by a tuning company?

I would also like to know that, strikes me that it could just have been a misprint!

I don’t think it’s a factory upgrade. From the moment a car gets upgraded it’s tuning for me. And honestly: why should Alfa upgrade one car of their limited version?
