There’s just no getting round the shortfalls of a blown four-pot instead of something with more cylinders and more purity, and though the 4C sounds pretty fruity on the outside, inside it’s a bit flat and droney. The turbo’s also rather intrusive, and though the 4C is addictively fast – 0-62mph in 4.5 seconds, 160mph top speed – and doesn’t lack torque, it’s nowhere near as seamless in its delivery as, say, the old six-cylinder Porsche Cayman. Its TCT dual-shift gearbox is annoyingly obstructive, and overall it’s hard to have confidence in the 4C. It simply doesn’t drive as well as it should.
