Auto Insurance Comparison - Alfa 8C Spider vs BMW Z4

Again, we have a pair of very powerful cars, personally I would go for the Z4. Mostly based on its looks.. but tell me what you would choose?

Right lets get started:

Alfa 8C Spider
















Average inurance for middle-age man, safe neighbourhood: $1200/month 

Tuning house Novitec has strapped on some form of superchargment and intercooling contraption to the 8C Spider's 4.7-litre V8, persuading the cylinders to expel 600 horses instead of 450. The torques have similarly read a Playboy issue, because they swell from 346lb ft to 434, and this means the wet-lettuced 8C now sprints from 0-62mph in 3.9 seconds (down from 4.2).
BMW Z4
 











 
Average inurance for middle-age man, safe neighbourhood: $1000/month

There are three engines to choose from and all of them are straight sixes. The new 35is with twin turbo technology is the highlight though - the 4.8 seconds 0-62mph time is about all you could want for. The other engines are a 2.5-litre and 3.0-litre.
 
I like both of these cars, but what do you think?

Enjoy !
