Dimensions and aerodynamics
The compact dimensions make this car with 2 bucket seats truly unique amid its competitors: it is just under 4 metres long, 200 cm wide, 118 cm high and with a wheelbase of less than 2.4 metres. These dimensions serve both to emphasise the compact size of the car and to accentuate its agility. What’s more, owing to the designers’ excellent work, the car achieves maximum aerodynamic efficiency levels, recording a negative Cz (downforce coefficient) which, as in racing cars, contributes towards achieving increased stability at higher speeds.
The new Alfa DNA selector with Race mode
The Alfa 4C also sees the d̩but of the new Alfa DNA selector which not only features the three standard settings available until now РDynamic, Natural and All Weather Рbut also a fourth mode: Race, designed to enhance the driving experience on a race track even further.
Acronym 4C
the power /weight ratio of an authentic supercar, less than 4 kg/HP, yet focusing not merely on the maximum power delivered, but on limiting the weight to guarantee maximum agility and top performance. To this end, the Alfa 4C uses technologies and materials derived from super sports cars (including the Alfa 8C Competizione) – carbon fibre, aluminium, rear-wheel drive – and technologies from the latest standard models from Alfa Romeo, but updated to enhance the sports appeal of the new car even further. This is demonstrated by the new 1750 Turbo Petrol all-aluminium engine with direct injection, the sophisticated Alfa TCT twin dry clutch transmission and the Alfa DNA selector with the unprecedented Race mode.

a copy and past off the last email i had from Alfa.

2000 std, 2000 spiders, 2000 GTA(or sports)
i could be wrong though and its 2000 a year, but details still a little sketchy
just had a quick look for the info i had about the 500 per year and cant find it so might just be getting confused.

Wouldn't surprise me Miles, they're pretty keen on re-estabilshing the sporting credentials. Bit of a loss leader to perk the brand image up especially in the states.

WOuld like to see the interior as that was stunning in the concept but looking at the seats through the front windscreen they look a little boring.....

you dont hold the metal part tbh, because of the setting your legs are quite close to the bottom of the wheel, so you end up just holding the leather-ed part. i supose if your driving it around a track u might need to hold the metal area...

Fair enough. Still not looking high on my list of desirables. Not enough cylinders, too small etc etc.

each to there own :) i do like it, im not a Huge fan of turbo'ed engines but think i can live with it, you get almost no lag the gear changes are smooth as silk, its not a Quite drive by any means but tbh ive driven nosier.

my thoughts at the moment are to run the car for 3 years then look at selling it but well see how things go, Oh and on a additional thought. when im at Geneva in march i may well be signing on the dotted line for a QP.
