Sam i am loving watching the american vids everyday looks like your having a great time. Nice cars, excellent editing and sound as always. Cheers from midlands UK !
The air intake on the driver's side is to cool the transmission. The rear bumper thing is to meet some sort of crash requirement I've heard. The US 4c is also heavier because it has more structural components to pass crash testing.
I live in New England and I have seen 4C's with the carbon headlights and in fact the show I saw them at is happening again this weekend. It is an Italian themed show and at the last one there were 6 Aventador SV's a Zonda, TDF's Speciale A's, Enzo and so on.
The "extended" bumpers are called 5-mph bumpers. They are to help pedestrians survive in case of getting run over. Although I'd use it to park by ear since that would be the first thing that the car touches and not the whole bumper.
Need to visit my garage in South Carolina a black on black and blacked out trim Jaguar V8S convertible and a pearl white alpha Romeo 4 C spider share the same garage. Difficult choices to make on a daily basis. Both are just awesome in different ways.
Do a detailed review on the car wraps you & SOL got installed at DUB customs and how many layers etc.....the wrap material brand...and what protective coats are added
Please, please, please do NOT get a Mustang!!!! In de US and in Mexico (where I live), there are more Mustangs than people and they're just not so cool. Get a 570s
In Europe you guys park super close and need all the space behind each driver as possible... in America.. we have a lot of parking space and so we have cars with wider bodies, extended bumpers etc.
I enjoy your videos and this one most of all.... I have an Alfa and a friend of mine has that jag and we go at it all the time and this video sorta makes the argument. Have you moved to the US or r u still just visiting. Come to DC. WE HAVE TONS OF EXOTICS HERE.
I think the bigger bumpers are too do with crash regulations in the US, I remember with old Porsches they used to have extension to the bumpers for the slow speed impacts.
@Seen Through Glass - Your editing skills, footage and music choice are damn good! Keep it up! Guy on youtube called joe knows best has a similar style :)
I feel your pain because i owned a WRX STI 2011 and a WRX STI 2005 and i sold them to be able to afford an EVO IX tuned with 550 bhp and i miss my Subies.
The shape of the plate is different . The bump outs are to protect the plate, but now it is mostly artistic design and to illuminate the plate. The ones on the Alfa are wacky. Maybe to be used as a support for GT3 aero? Looking at it again, it looks illegal, the plate is covered by it , at different angles.
Hey Sam! The extra intake is a duct to cool the transmission, why it's only on the american cars idk. Maybe because they weight a bit more and put a bit more of a consistent strain on the trans?
Hi, first of all thanks for your work on this channel and this new video, which has been a pleasure to watch. Would it be possible to know how much of negative camber Matthew put on the front to have the 4C so much less "frantic"? And, if I may, have you felt this "night and day" difference, as he says, thinking back to yours?
Thank you a lot Matthew! I'll keep that in mind (I hope to order a 4C in a few months...fingers crossed). The improvement is more significant on rough roads, right? Driving on smooth Swiss roads won't probably require it, but Italian ones definitely will! Thank you a lot again for your answer and, most of all, for displaying (part of) your great car collection! :-)
That 4C looks like heaven in that spec, love it.
Would love a 4c. True drivers car right there 😍🚗
Dreaming In Cars If your an hairdresser
Roy Leijten 😅 fair play
Roy Leijten 😂
The F-Type is great but man that 4C is sexy.
The 4C is just beautiful! Im genuine in love with it!
My new favourite colour on the 4C. Big surprise for me as I always loved that dark metallic red

Legend says that if you're early no one gives a shit..
is it true?
You have stepped your game up so much the last couple of months, good job and loving the content.
That Jag and 4C look absolutely immaculate!
The V8 F-Type sounds incredible, cargasms everytime!
got to be the Alfa 4C for me looks stunning in the black spec
These cars look so much better with no front plate!
F- Type is the coolest car ever. I love it, and that Color is amazing
4c all the way!!
The air intake on the driver's side is to cool the transmission. The rear bumper thing is to meet some sort of crash requirement I've heard. The US 4c is also heavier because it has more structural components to pass crash testing.
I walked in to buy a 911 and walked out with an Alfa.... love it
C'mon, Sam. Do a collab with Alejandro. That'll be fun to watch.
Puff Of Smoke the Dodge Viper "ACR"
the black is the killer color for that alfa
It's a bumperette: U.S. bumper requirement to reduce low speed collision damage.

As always your editing and filming skill is beyond words, I enyoy your channel very much!
@Seen Through Glass you should think about the new GT350R mustang as your new car...Its a beast on road,great handling and Pure sound ;)
+Γρηγόρης Κωστάκογλου I've heard great things! Trying to check one out whilst here in US
Γρηγόρης Κωστάκογ
Please, please, please do NOT get a Mustang!!!! In de US and in Mexico (where I live), there are more Mustangs than people and they're just not so cool. Get a 570s
Umm... Challenge Stradale
Γρηγόρης Κωστάκογλου they're only LHD, it'd be a bit of a pain
Sam you video work is really solid man. Editing is great, audio & music is always solid!
0:10 Shiny
The American guy looks so worried every time he's asked a question
Only in California they have that awkward bumper I think. I heard something in a Wheeler Dealer(I would recommend this show) episode addressing it.
Glad to see you happy sam! looks like you had a stellar time buddy!
- Mike
Sam do you ever have a preference as to what colour your cars are? Your last two have been Red so would you differ on your new car?
All 4Cs have the extra cooling vent now.
The Alfa 4C for sure!!
love your content ....your recent uploads are very entertaining .
plus i am also a watch fan and love your Omega speedmaster .......
seen through glaaaaaaaaas
In Europe you guys park super close and need all the space behind each driver as possible... in America.. we have a lot of parking space and so we have cars with wider bodies, extended bumpers etc.
Almost 200k !!! Great job sam! Keep it up!
Euro spec 4C headlights look so much better.
+Juan Pablo Rivera I agree :)

The owner is such a nice guy!
damm i love that jag..
YOU HAVE THE BEST CAMERA SKILLS
Haha I was just gonna come to this channel and look for a Alfa video... and yes there it is!
Having driven neither myself, I'm fully qualified to give my opinion in that I'd want the Jag myself
You should get a Vantage GT12 to piss off Tim lol
Ahmed Gafar maybe you should give him the cash to afford one
Ahmed Gafar way to expensive the value has raised so much
@Seen Through Glass - Your editing skills, footage and music choice are damn good! Keep it up!

LOVE YOUR SLOW MO SHOTS
I feel your pain because i owned a WRX STI 2011 and a WRX STI 2005 and i sold them to be able to afford an EVO IX tuned with 550 bhp and i miss my Subies.
Holy Tan!
The 4C and a cool daily
Legend says that if you're early STG will reply.
We will see...
Im the future seen through glass
Joef Magat I never said that!
Legends ask themselves what's so special about that?
ouch.
Wtf did I just see a horizon edition M4???

+Fahren Mintah Ha ha!
Lmao
Fahren Mintah that's what I said
Ftype for sure

btw love the following shots!

ooh nice, missing a 360 Challenge Stradale though!
I think you mean the left side, not right side Sam! (yeh I just wanted an excuse to comment, so...)
You are forgetting he is English gentleman.
Adam Martin is
what?
Wow. LA is almost like driving in Nashville or Tampa.
Hi, Sam love your vlog and can you share your BGM list? really love those songs
Hi,
first of all thanks for your work on this channel and this new video, which has been a pleasure to watch.
Would it be possible to know how much of negative camber Matthew put on the front to have the 4C so much less "frantic"?
And, if I may, have you felt this "night and day" difference, as he says, thinking back to yours?
Giuseppe Jacopo Guidi I went with -2 in the fronts and -1.5 in the rear. It really made a big difference.
Thank you a lot Matthew! I'll keep that in mind (I hope to order a 4C in a few months...fingers crossed).
The improvement is more significant on rough roads, right?
Driving on smooth Swiss roads won't probably require it, but Italian ones definitely will!
Thank you a lot again for your answer and, most of all, for displaying (part of) your great car collection! :-)
The US 4c bumpers are extended so that they can fit lights to illuminate the number plate
Anthony ouellette It also has to do with the strict safety regulations.
you should get another 4C, i am looking at pricing after this short text for myself.
the 4c is such a great car and I would love to own one.. well not enough to buy one but they are great :-)
Alfa Romeo 4C 👍🏻
Very Nice video as always! And For me THE F type r Please!!!!!
Oh that Alfa...

Air intake is transmission cooling, primarily for hot weather markets.
I'd have the 4C
