I'm in line with you!..........
The brera is beautiful, but in its current iteration, woefully slow at 8.6 0-60 and it's heavy at 3200 lbs. Supposedly it will get a bigger v-6 and will be lightened before it gets here. If not that ugly-*** 135i will be a nice alternative. I've sadly come to realize that looks aren't everything.

the 2.2 Brera is 8.6 seconds...the V6
is something like 6.8 seconds or so...
but yeah, i've heard the same things as you...a tweaked V6 and a lighter weight before it comes here....actually it's more than 3200 pounds, it's like 3400 pounds or something! EEK!
there should be a GTA version too...which will be pushing 350hp or more! but it's gonna be $$$
the 135i is great! i think the looks are pretty good actually, reminds me of those late 60s compact coupes (Fulvia, 2002, Alfa GTV)

The Brera is a beauty... but it may just come down to looks, though
because at its price point I'm not sure this car can really compete with German cars in the same category.
