Alfa Romeo 4c/4c Spider

Anyone here have seat time with this ??

Very intriguing to say the least.
Seems like a legit car with more of an analog feel most of us e9x guys like.

I was recently considering Porsche as a 2nd and DD my e92, but this seems like a great option.

I actually called the local dealer, I hopefully will get some seat time this saturday!

I really like what I'm seeing of this car. I would be tempted to give this a go versus a Boxster or Cayman. Some KWs, forged 18" wheels, and an Akrapovic exhaust and you'd have a sweet machine on your hands.

I think this will be my next car. I'll need to wait a few years.

Had some (limited) seat time today.

This thing is amazing. My ONLY complaint is no manual. But the car is so awesome I can forgive it. Handles like a dream at speed. Really amazing quality for 60k pre tax.

Put the deposit down today!!! I do have to decide whether to keep the e92 or trade in and get another DD though.

Handles even better than the cayman/911 if anyone is wondering.

Thanks for posting. Finally saw a couple in person and looks much better then pics. I actually fit, which is nice. Sounds louder than I expected. Car has presence. Dealing with the Fiat dealers is the only downside. Would love to get back into an Alfa after many, many years.

Considering it weighs 500lbs less, i would hope so. The Alfa 4C is more of a middle ground competitor to the Elise and Exige.

Damn...because of all of you, I'm going to have to go check this thing out...
I've seen that Alfa intends to release several new cars (Giulia etc.) here soon and re-establish themselves back into the North American market...
I too have roots in Alfa...had a Spyder back in the day...and drooled over my friends GTV...yes, Lincoln was president back then
