Baby Italian Stallion

What is Italian for Mini? Well if you ask the folks at Alfa Romeo they would say “Mi.To.” That is the name of their BMW Mini Cooper killer. Looking to compete in the premium subcompact segment dominated by the Mini, Alfa designers took inspiration from their 8C Competizione beauty.

And if drop dead gorgeous looks were not enough, this bad boy Mi.To makes the Toyota Prius green(er) with envy over the little Italians estimated 49 MPG. Don’t look for the Mi.To on the streets of the U.S. anytime soon, but for the rest of the world…Mama Mia, that’s a spicy meatball!

Alfa Romeo Mille Miglia

Do you know how many times Alfa Romeo won the legendary Mille Miglia race? That's right, eleven times, that's why this special edition of the gorgeous Brera will come at an extremely exclusive 11 units.

The Alfa Romeo Brera Mille Miglia Edition is not so different from the one you drive every day, it simply features a special plate placed between the two seats, and a special interior with Black leather upholstery and Red stitching.

The Quadrifoglio sign proves that this is an all wheel drive version, powered by a 260hp 3.2 liter V6.
