We weren't completely smitten by Renault's Dezir with a body kit Alpine A110-50 when it came out, but watching it face off against an A110 in the Alps certainly warms us to the new concept.

This leaked photo is the first of the new Renault Alpine concept, due for official unveiling in Monaco on Friday. Under the skin is purportedly a tube-framed Megane Trophy complete with a mid-mounted VQ V6 tuned to 400 HP and 310 Lb-Ft. Dubbed the A110-50, the concept marks the 50th anniversary of the first A110.
