Alfa Romeo 4C
Gorgeous car. Sex personified imo Quote:
Wonder what price this could come in at? I'd buy one if it cost around $30-$40k |

DROOOL
i love alfas i miss good looking alfas 8c being the exception ofcourse, whereas the brera while it was awesome little car it was after all a 3 door wagon (civic :p) lets hope it gives the 86 some competition and drive to make both cars better (hell i might even buy it over the 86 if the price isnt too outrageous) and DAMN its SEXY (the gurls are 2 )

Alfa Romeo 4C
Was confirmed this week that Alfa is coming back to the US next year. Ignoring that their relaunch over here is as mobile as the GT5 launch was, the good news is they're bringing the 4C. 1900 lbs, 200+ hp, 6-speed, MR..only problem is the price tag

$60k for a car with a 1.75L engine....
Not to say that Lotus didn't do something similar and I'm definitely not saying that this is slow in any way. I hope it sells well. I have a soft spot for Alfa's....as any automotive enthusiast probably does so I'm still excited.

I don't think it will do well - but we'll see.

Similar price as the Elise/Exige. It will do just fine... if it's not notorious for breaking down.

the exige and elise arent doing just fine so why would the alfa? in fact, they arent even importing the elise or exige to the states anymore. basically everyone who wants a sub 2k lb car already has one. this is why lotus is changing the whole entire build philosophy. it is going to be a gorgeous car and if the funds permit, i would at least cross chop that to some of my other choices

Alfa Romeo 4C
The Alfa Romeo 4C is featured on the cover of _Car_ magazine (August 2011).
Engine: Turbocharged, direct-injection 1750cc. 232 hp/251 torq. Vehicle Weight: 850 kg. It can be done, sports fans. It could even have been done with an N/A engine, if they had set their minds to it. |

Uh huh, sure. *rolls eyes* I'll believe it when I see it.
It's great that manufacturers can claim anything they want for power and weight of a concept car that almost never back it up. I think the non-stop train of concepts for the FT-86 has now jaded me to the point that I trust no concept car to represent future reality.
