Moldcad, I personally do see
some similarities actually in the second picture..mainly with the hood up to the B pillar. Not everyone will agree and that's OK, but I see where you are coming from. Good eye, IMO! If anything it kind of looks like an F80 from the front to the B
It has the intake behind the front wheel well, power dome, and similar proportions like the F8X.
And now I can't unsee it! In fact, bimmerpost members said they are similar here:

Although I feel nowadays, everyone is copying everyone else in some way and some cars in general are difficult to differentiate design wise with all the iterations we've seen. However, I don't feel it's a blatant ripoff or anything, like what Hyundai used to do.
Anyway, this new Alfa is going to be a great car at least from whats shown on paper (fastest 4 door on the Ring, relatively light weight, even if it's sans fluids). Hoping to have a look at the auto show.
