Will 911 buyers jump ship?

God that makes me so hard.

porsche makes are actually quite good, unless people are in it for looks alone there's no reason for them to get this over a 911

No.

But it deffinately gives peope looking at the alfa 4C a similar option.

911 buyers have brand loyalty

Was the original alpine a pushrod 4 cylinder..?

>>16708776
It looks like a frog

>>16708776
Pricewise, this a Cayman competitor rather than a 911 competitor.

What is that tumor near the headlights?

>>16708776
Would be interesting to see it vs a Cayman.
The 4C is gorgeous but shit to drive, I hope this can compete

>>16708776
Nice Audi TT with fender flares and retarded front lights.

>>16709928
First I've heard about the 4C being shit to drive
I thought people were saying it drove quite nicely, being so light.

complaints about weird steering feel, uninspiring engine and terrible gearbox are the usual and many of the best testers are saying it

>The original A110 was a proper 911 competitor.

It's to make it look like the A110, duh.

Am I remembering this correctly, but didn't the A110 make less than 100hp?

>>16708776
>911 buyers
>buying literally anything else

thats not how this works.

>having learnt nothing about the meaning of weight and handling from motorsports history
>benchracing about horsepower numbers again
By the way until a year ago the base Cayman also only had 275 hp, and the Alpine will weigh much less, 1100 kg according to what info I could find.

>>16708798
911 buyers are also not low income animals who would even touch a 4c

>>16710439
was built for over a decade starting in 64 and came with many engines, top spec was 140 hp

>>16710340

It depends on the model. Early Alpines got 1l 55hp R8 engines. The proper 1100 and 1300 engines (from the R8 Gordini) producing around 100 and 120 hp weren't introduced until the mid 60s.

With 0-60 figures of 9 seconds and a top speed exceeding 120 mph that put it into Porsche territory.

the original alpine was never FWD you cumguzzling tardwagon
Alpines always were MR

>>16712336

RR*

I thought they were rear rear. Or was that just the 310?
Anyway, we're probably not getting them in the US, and Porsche badgewhores won't buy anything but Porsche. It might take away some of it's market though, but it all depends on marketing.

>>16710358
Why does it have so much tilty wheel in the back?

That's a weird looking audi TT

>>16714494
I wouldn't call it loads but it's probably due to the weight distribution with the engine in the rear.

i hate it that it looks like an audi from behind.
Renault designers sucks.

Please tell me this is just a concept and not the production car, because holy shit is it ugly.

Like the worst of late 90s-early 00's automotive design ugly.

Steering is great, people are just whiny bitches about muh 5mph parking lot handling. The transmission is universally reviled, though.
