Did someone really order this Alfa Romeo 8C with a General Lee paint scheme?

Yup. Someone has apparently taken it upon themselves to slather the slinkiest of Alfa Romeo models with the bright orange paint and stars and bars of the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazzard. Why? Because if you have enough cash to park an 8C Competizione in your expansive garage, you can paint it in whatever livery you damn well please. Details are scarce, but our source says the coupe is real, and it rocks the appropriate "01" numbering on each door. We're hoping there's a horn capable of whistling Dixie under the hood as well, and we'll award bonus points if the doors are welded shut and there's a cage inside.

We'd love to know who ordered up this particular color combination. Our source, John S., says this photo was clicked near Balocco in Northern Italy (presumably adjacent to Alfa's test track facility there), but for now, we'll just content ourselves by wondering how you say "Daisy Duke" in Italian.

At least someone is enthusiastic about the 8C. That car has all but disappeared from magazines and talk on car sites in such a short time. I thought it was a nice looking design when it first came out but then it had that eye watering price and the performance was not all that great so it disappeared really quick.

I remember when I was a kid in North Carolina seeing chargers with the orange Dukes paint scheme, I thought it was the coolest thing along with the with "Smokey and the Bandit" black and gold Trans Am.


A golfer named Bubba Watson recently bought a reconditioned original Dukes Charger used in the show, it would be hilarious seeing him pulling up to a televised golf tournament in a General Lee.
