In this video I talk about the good and not so great feats of living with an Alfa Romeo 4C Spider. It has been a little bit over one year of ownership and I thought I would create a review of how it's been so far!

That's the thing. It isn't better than a Cayman on track. I drove both on track and have proof (look around on my channel) and the 4C just gets destroyed by a Cayman in the corners. The 4C has a light front end and understeers a lot because of that as there's not enough grip. I hear you I too wish it was an amazing track car but there are better for less. Still beautiful and I still love it

Snowcat_srt I am an Alfa Romeo technician here in America( I would like to point out I absolutely love Alfa romeos line up and their cars in general). This is a track car built for the road. Everything was built with that in mind. A carbon fiber bucket, the small door cards, the lack of creature comforts, the bucket seats. Everything. I am bothered with the lack of positives pointed in this video that the car does actually have. It’s an amazing car and does exactly what it was build for amazingly.

Enzo954 Also a 4C owner too, lifelong mid-engine car owner, with MR2, X1/9, and Lancia Scorpion/Montecarlo in my current stable. Most of the complaints are simply life with almost any mid engine car. If you’re focused on how much better it could have been, Italian cars probably aren’t your thing, they’re all like this; your money went into chassis and engine, not to helping you get in and out of the trunk more conveniently.

Alfa Romeo ensured pure Alfisti and die-hard traditional motormen will purchase a 4C and understand, and integrate, with Alfas purposely designed and built 4C. A fully integrated carbon fibre monocoque, only in supercars. I don't have one, would love one, but did have the 'luxury' of driving one, and I was amazed at everything the 4C offers, my Giulietta 1750QV felt like a limousine and placid in comparison after climbing out the 4C into the GQV. With the 4C, less is more, In leaps and bounds, hats off to Alfa Romeo for producing such a masterpiece. No other manufacturer would have the balls to do so. Cool video.

It was extremely reliable. I already sold the car as we don't have roads where I could properly enjoy it. I miss it but didn't have a proper garage to store it during off season. Looking back it was a great car with so many good memories. There's not much to break down in that. I think the weakest link was the gearbox but I have a friend who has had one for several years and still no issues. Would be best to ask other owners to get a broader spectrum though! Have a nice day

The USA cars do have leather pockets for you wallet and phone between the seats and the doors. And for 2019 it does have back up camera. But even the 2016 cars have rear parking sensors. You should try them.

I think it would be fair to point that out is all.

Admittedly, I started getting a little upset because for a while, it just seemed like you were "bitching" about it..... but I did watch it until the end, and I appreciate the way you emphasized its beauty and strong points to close out the video. I have every intention of purchasing a 4C Spider within the next year..... in white. I know full-well that it lacks creature comforts, has a poorly designed and cheap interior, and should by no means be used as a daily driver. But... for the money you get an incredibly sexy car, that performs extremely well on the track. THAT.... is its purpose, and I'm ok with that. I am interested to hear if you've had any mechanical issues with it. Alfa isn't exactly known for "reliability", and I expect that to a degree.... but it would be nice to know if you've had any unexpected repairs or issues with it. Also... what do you use to care for the cloth roof?

Thank you! A lot of people don't watch till the end and get frustrated. No mechanical issues whatsoever! The roof is maintained with a car wash I go to so I don't know the exact products they use. The car is good on track but definitely needs more rubber than it gets from the factory. It has little to no mechanical grip from them and the aero doesn't work neither. If you're looking for a track car I would recommend getting a Cayman as it's more suitable out of the box.

@@Snowcatsrt I have been an early 70's Porsche 914 fanatic since I was in my late teens (and I've owned/built several), but the recent price hike in classic Porsches, plus reliability issues, plus lack of A/C, plus low horsepower..... it's just not feasable anymore. I do understand the shortcomings of the 4C, but fortunately, I do all my own building, restoration, and mods. For me.... the 4C and the Exige both capture the "spirit" of the 914, while still having modern comforts like A/C and reliability. The Exige (for some reason) is highly overpriced, and I "suspect" that is because it's compared to the Elise, and hence, justifiably higher. Great car.... but not "that" great. The 4C is much sexier, with significantly better technology. Even with all it's shortcomings, it's the perfect car for "me". By the time I get my hands on a piggyback ECU, some decent coilovers and swaybars, and a sticky set of tires.... I'll have it performing the way it should.

I've been working on a car for my brother which is a Karmann Ghia first version convertible with a modified Porsche 356 engine and a 911 manual gearbox. Never been a huge fan of Porsche however I didn't get the opportunity to drive any of the earlier air-cooled models other than the 964 which was a blast to drive! Also check out the Jannarelly that I overviewed in a video. I was invited to their factory for a drive but with the latest circumstances I have to put that on hold.

It seems like you bought the wrong car with all your gripes with the 4C. It is a sports car focused for driving not for family runner around, taking the wife out or buying her chicken. This is a weekend sports car for a slim sort of person. However some points about the boot being heavy is valid along with some of the flawed interior design concept

@@chrisd8458 so far so good to be honest. It lacks one thing that Italian cars have issues with. Electronics. You're just looking at driving modes and traction control. One thing you really need to consider is comfort. I'm 5 foot 9 but any taller than that people begin to struggle. The car is super engaging which is fun for a weekend drive and track days but still doable on a daily basis. What gets me are the seats. They're not very comfortable for longer commutes and when I took it out for a whole day I could really feel it in back

@@Snowcatsrt I really really want this car. I'm worried about things being costly. Things are fine as is financially with the RT, but 41-43 mpg sounds really nice. That cuts my gas usage in half. Another worry I have is the turbo going. I've heard that has happened to a few people within 3 years. Acquisition of parts at reasonable prices plus labor down the line. My last Challenger lasted 5 years before it was destroyed with zero issue until that unfortunate day it was rear ended. If I have Challenger levels of reliability, I want this car indefinately. I'm also a RWD pro at this point. All weather. So I can handle those quirks day in day out aswell that others couldnt handle. I dont know if I'm being overly critical of Alfa because of the past or if things are really different this time. I'm worried no one but the dealer will be able to fix it too. Shit looks complicated and not straight forward at all.
