It is all about tight packaging for weight and the edgy handling and power delivery with high and sudden torque on the back wheels. Its hyper character would mean a manual would take away from the experience. trust me. You need both handa on the wheel and 100% concentration at all times or it will try to kill you often 🤣 Most fun you can have on 4wheels though.

I own a 4c spider, it offers a experience that no other car can give you, and it is a monster on track it can keep up with beast of cars that cost 3x as much.

I have driven this car model in the Launch edition. It doesn't need power steering. I have EPAS in my racecar and take the fuse out when I race it. It gives me better feel. I have always had manual racecars for 50 years. I want a DCT. I want it for the quick shifts, I want it for never missing a gear. Strange how all F1 cars, rally cars and road race cars are either DCT or a sequential gearbox. The only real disadvantage of a DCT is the gearbox will not allow you to left foot brake into corners with some accelerator input. This is a car that you get up at 4 am to drive your special mountain section. This is not the car you take to the shops for a carton of milk, that car has power steering and it will be an auto.

I would suggest everyone in the "but it's not manual!" camp first go and drive one before they comment 😂 If you understand and experienced how edgy and nervous the steering and handling is, paired with the low weight (EU specs cars are 2000lb...) you will understand that a manual would detract from the driving experience in this unique case. The rest of the the raw experience more than makes up for the lack of a clutch pedal... You need both hands on the wheel and 150% concentration AT ALL times or it will try to kill you every chance it gets 😂 I drive mine daily. Pure joy. If there was a high revving N/A engine option like a v6 that would work in manual, but having the torque to weight ratio of a GTR or an early C63AMG with sudden delivery to the back wheels when the boost hits... you will want to have all your reflexes and energy focussed on the job at hand 😉 (And I have manual classic Alfas and race cars so not an auto fan)

If it had more hp 350-400. I would consider. IMO a underrated car for sure. Same with a lotus.

You can get these motors up to that power number, but a 4C with 400 HP would simply be too much.

The 1750TBi is such a great engine. I have it in my Alfa Romeo 159 and it's great. Almost no turbo lag and plenty of power trhough the whole register. They have even used it in asias F3 pushed to 270hp. To bad my car sounds like a vacuum cleaner and not even close to the 4C.

Totally agree. Own an RSV4 Aprilia and a 4C Both are death weapons. The 4C is simply a go-kart on steroids.

The engine is not similar to a Fiat 500 Abarth. Its much bigger and shares it with the Giulietta, Brera, 159, 939 Spider. 1386cc vs 1750cc engines

Why would you need power steering? I have had one since 2017 and not once did I think, Boy does this ever need power steering. It is actually better than my Exige or Evora.

Ive loved these cars ever since I sat in one a couple of years back in a dealership - would have bought it on the spot if I had the money then. Buying a new weekend car next year and have the 4C on my shortlist along with: - Elise 111R - Elise Sport 250 - Audi RS5 (V8 version) - Maserati GranTurismo - Porsche 981 Boxter Most raw car on the market though? I would have thought an Elise / Exige/ Caterham would be more raw?
