Worth a read ... I know you like the Cayman R Enzo and it seems to be a great car ..... Should have called it the Club Sport though as an R it isn't ..But still a great car.

Some of the bits they say...Most info came form the Marco Tenco, Alfa's design boss.....Most of the bits we new about but added any way.

They say the 4C was the star of the show

Price is expected to be 45,000 euros plus taxes so would be £45,000 in UK.

It will be a sister car to the Fiat Abarth

The 4C and Abarth has nothing to do with KTM .... The tub may be built by Dallara who also makes the KTM carbon chassis.

It will use the 1750 TBi.

Power expected to be 233bhp leaving room for faster versions later.

The wheel base is 2.4 metres in length with is barely larger than a Lotus Exige .. So a small car.

Show car has carbon fibre body work but this will change to glassfibre for production which is just as light.

If the weight stays at 840kg the power to weight would be around 280bhp comparing well to rivals - Cayman S 237bhp / Audi TT RS 235 BHP.

0-60 sub 5 secs and 155 mph

The car could be made into a roaster with ease ...

Alfa are planning to make 1500 cars a year for all European markets

The interior is purely a concept aqnd will not make production..
