Alfa Romeo Working On Lightweight Spider Aimed At Mazda MX-5



With the previous generation Alfa Romeo Spider now firmly in the ground, Alfa is looking to the next generation, and reports indicate that it will be a substantial break from the last car (pictured above), based on the stunning but portly Brera sports coupe.



Alfa is eager to fast track the Spider in time for Alfa's 2013 launch in North America. Brand recognition for Alfa Romeo remains high in the United States, thanks in part to Dustin Hoffman's iconic Spider in the 1960 s classic film The Graduate. Power should come from a 1.7L turbocharged 4-cylinder making roughly 150 horsepower and weigh an amazing 2200 lbs. [Source: AutoExpress]
