Brilliant review and glad to see a review with a real racing driver who appreciates a car like this. A truly special experience in this day and age. For the price, the 4C is a true bargain. The road presence, the feel, unmatched anywhere near the price. Frankly, unmatched period.
Brian Makse Cool Im from the GTA as well, thats even better than finding an american journalist because there is no canadian automotive journalists that I've ever heard from
i bought a 16 spider in april. im 60. ive had corvettes and porsches and triumphs. ive never driven anything like this. its INCREDIBLE. launch control ? are you kidding ? 0 to 60 in 4.1. thats faster than a 911. and cool looking beyond compare. a baby ferrarri. ive died and gone to heaven.
ive watched 20 reviews. many have nerds and pinheads whinning about this or that... no glove box... loud... really petty stuff. car trolls. lol. this the best car ive ever had. crowds gather all the time... most guys wifes and gf's wont let um have one. gotta have that 4 door thing, for the kids. tisk tisk.
I just can't get around the interior... Wish it had more to it for the price tag, but all in all great review and love the Camera work and music choice. It all really accommodated to the styling of this car. Can't wait for more.
I have a 2017 4c, so much more character then a bmw or Porsche after I took a test drive I was blown away, I drive mine around the back twisty rd as much as possible. Great cinematically first vid I subscribed
How do you feel about the length? I seem to think the 6-8 minutes is ideal. The longer 12 and 14 minute reviews I have seen from other great outlets can become dragged out. We have done some in the 10-12 minute mark but its fairly rare.
Thanks! We'd love to get into more detail but three minutes still seems to be the average attention span on RUclips. Some of our films will run ten minutes, but it's hard to justify longer running films when nobody watches after the fourth minute. Any suggestions?
Brian Makse really good review but not great, yes you could've talked & showed the speedometer since its electronic, you can show the styling lines & shots of the full interior. you can talk about the center of gravity of it since its really low + demonstration. talk about the seats fit for tall & wide people traction control if it has. that was imho missing info of your review that would've made it great. an 8 minute review by you is enough.
Sorry about that mate we were on a mental timescale for this film that was further comprised by the day we lost to the flat tires. We try and cram in as many reviews as possible when we are in beautiful Cali. This should be less of an issue in future as the channel grows and we have greater flexibility with time.
Nick Busato More on flat tires (plural?) Do tell. With no spares on modern cars, we fail to discuss the various stuff manufacturers do to compensate. Does it have a flat / slime /pump kit. I made one for our Elise.
Good the hear manual gear changes and the narrow set tyres I find quite striking. I suppose the lightness of the car overall making wider ones unnecessary
Love the review, one of the best online so far. Definitely in my top 7. What I dont like is how we still present as if Alfa Romeo has taken pages from Ferrari's book. Ex.. you mentioned it is bjilt in Milan as if t say "like Ferrari" Alfa Romoe has a factory there since 1910. Ferrari? 1947. Even with the glass over the engine thingy, like the 360 modena. Yet the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale was the first to sport such a thing. This is not a new market for Alfa Romeo, its the return, awakening or the sleeping giant. I own the last style they sold here in 95, the AR194Q and did not buy another awaiting their return. Its that serious. #WeAreAlfisti
I think Brian does point out that there is a difference between old and modern Ferraris and what similarities carry over. When doing a review one needs to present a way to quantify the cars character to the average viewer. Cheers mate.
We weren't going for a history lesson with this one. If it were the case, we'd have done a thirty minute film at least to tell the story properly. It's a storied marque, as we all know, but to be fair, it is today a subsidiary of Fiat.
Comments by Sidhesh Patil - I think the paddle shifters made out of plastic could be viewed as an opportunity for drivers to customize them to individual liking. For example - glue aftermarket tailored silicon grip on the paddle shifters and make it ergonomic.
Thanks mate, I have been pushing hard to up our game in that respect. This and the Aston V12 Vantage S Roaster I feel are the prettiest films to date. I will also give a nod to the RR wraith review too.
i have #370 of the Launch Edition (USA model). it's absolutely delicious if you're a purist. i wish it had a manual 6, but we can't have it all now, can we? highly recommend!
I have a LE coupe #498. Agreed it is a fantastic car. Came from many other cars and only this one and my old 1969/70 ALFA spider meet my taste for a real drivers car. Stock it is very fast but put some stickier tires, coil overs, and a more track oriented wheel alignment and it is a real track monster.
great review loved it!! but i still have this nagging feeling that there are simply better options like the porsche cayman / boxster, C7 corvette stingray, jaguar F type v6, or even a Mazda Miata. i get that it has "character" and italian styling but these other cars mentioned draw just as much attention (excluding miata) and offer a little more civility / performance as well. my question to you would be if you have 60K used would you pass up these cars for a 4c?
I will agree that the first though I had when I saw the price was that I could get a C7 for the same money. At the end of the day everyone is looking for their own favourite recipe for the perfect desert and the 4C may be it. Driving one is far more of an event that any of the cars listed and for some thats all that matters. Also the cayman when optioned out to the spec you would want to drive home with is likely a sizeable amount more money than the 4c.
Thanks for watching! Depends on how you define "better" I suppose. If your better means a mid engine car with impeccable manners and daily utility, then the Cayman is for you, but if your better means authentic exotic car qualities and exclusivity, then the 4C is the only option.
So you're the only reviewer on whole of RUclips that said that there is no feedback through the wheel, care explaining that? As literally every one of them stated the complete opossite..
That's correct. There's very little feedback from the wheel, like it's reluctant to talk to you. Kind of disappointing actually, but so much of the car is really outstanding that I'm happy to overlook that. As for the why, well, I'm the only reviewer on the whole of RUclips who is a championship-winning racing driver. That might explain it.
Brian Makse honestly i think i've watched them all, even Chris Harris said the feedback is great :) But i guess you don't have any reason to 'lie' :) Awesome review btw
BorisLozac That's the thing! Harris drove the Euro version. I haven't. The difference is hundreds of pounds, for starters. The North American version is massively heavier than the one they sell in Europe. Never mind any other changes that Alfa isn't disclosing for the North American version, such as spring and damper rates, or perhaps even suspension geometry. If I was going to "lie" or mislead anyone, don't you think I'd jump on the "heck yeah there's lots of steering feedback" train?
Brian Makse offcourse not, that's why i said "lie" :) Could be that the american variant is different, gonna check it out myself tomorrow in a racing simulation "Assetto Corsa".. that's why your review bummed me cause i want the good feedback on the wheel :P :)
Great work as usual Nick and Brian. I will have to go with a Cayman on this one, though I will admit that the Alfa is visually stunning and may also be great to drive. I just feel I may get more for my money with the Cayman than this Alfa. Lotus Elise/Exige are not available anymore in Canada, otherwise that would be my top pick for Mid-engined, lightweight sportscars that provide an analog driving experience. Also, if all that weight saving was so important, then they should have considered a manual box over a dual-clutch, but maybe the Alfa customers like the luxury of a dual clutch and an auto mode in traffic. I know I would never buy a Miata or Elise with a DCT as it just doesn't "feel" right for such a focused back-to-basics sportscar.
Chassis/packaging optimization along with better use of boost is likely why its DCT only. You still get that back to basics feel as your mind starts to focus on the other more analog parts of the cars experience.
Thanks! If you're going to daily a car like this, then, sure, the Cayman's more practical, but if you're looking for a more special motoring experience, the 4C is brilliant. As for the gearbox, this thing works really well as it is and we were never wanting for a manual. Love this car.
I own a 2016 coupe white exterior and red leather interior it’s a very unique car that stands out on the road. Would I buy another one absolutely lol. 0-60 in 4.1. Turbo boost can put ya in your seat. I’m a 26 year old female and seeing anyone in one of these is rare let alone 26 year old. Oil changes are easy if ya do it yourself. Good gas mileage. Nimble. Raw. Reliability has been good so far. Full exposed carbon fiber tube. No muffler or power steering your in full control. Hand built only so many made coupe wise. Overall Not much to complain about other than not driving it in the winter lol. If your looking for creature comfort it’s not the car for that. It’s basic inside all driver oriented. It’s basically like a cross between a Ferrari and a Lotus Exige the best of both worlds I guess. Not to mention Alfa’s rich racing heritage. Is it the fastest car no but it’s a rocket kid ya not wouldn’t advise dissing it cause it’s a 4 cylinder it’s a beast. I’ve raced and beat 2 hemis and 2 mustangs. It’s quick in dynamic mode push it in 3 gear and hold on lol.
brian. id love to. but im still a bit of a technobarbarian, and dont know my phone that well. besides, spending all my time in the garage w baby. ive already waxed her, polished rims ( beautiful 10 spoke aluminums) and blacked out the tires. i tuck her in each night. lol.
It's not a daily car but for a guy (with the right driving experience) is the best "affordable" car; only much more expensive supercar can give the same driving pleasure and performance.
I think the 4C is cool but, everyone is waiting to see the all new (one size larger) car that is coming soon. It will share it's platform with a new Dodge to fill the size hole between the Challenger and Dart. It may be called Cuda or the new Avenger. It will be the first completely new car thoroughly developed and released by the FCA merger. I can't wait to see this new sports car. I loved my 1970 Cuda I had back in High school years ago. We shall see. ;o)
Nick Busato I understand your frustration. I just feel there is so much secrecy about this car that it must be worth the wait. I've been following the comments of Ralf Gilles and Sergio Marchionne, as well as release dates of upcoming Alfa Romeo/Maserati new models. I believe the Dodge variant of this car will be a twin turbo V6 sports car available in hard top and convertible for the 2016 model year. FCA isn't fooling around anymore they're investing $60 billion, that's with a "B" over the next few years back into the company. I expect the new car to be a world beater in performance and value. I have to wait and see what happens. ;o)
I'm 6' 2" and probably would feel claustrophobic in the 4C as a daily driver. I'd get a Challenger before the 4C. I just really would like to see the 100% new from the ground up model coming. :o)
Jerome Burrasca Sorry I got two cars confused. I was interested in the next generation giulietta as I love my hatches and wanted to own my first italian car. Anyways with regards to the 4C I am about 5"11 and my seat was not set all the way back. I think someone at cars and coffee was your size fit decently but getting in with longer legs can lack elegance.
I would buy a 4C over any other car in its category based on looks alone. I find that photos and videos don't do this car any justice. I've seen it in person and this thing is low and wide, def on the same calibre as your supercars when it comes to looks.
Actually the Mastretta MXT has a carbon monocoque, and it's way cheaper than both the Alfa and the McLaren. And this isn't product placement just cause I'm Mexican. :P
enrique3402 Hate to nit pick but the Mastretta definitely does not have a carbon tub. Its a lot closer in design to the Lotus Exige. Even the BMW I3 does not technically qualify as a true carbon tub, though it is cheaper.
But its so light that its as fast as any other supercar so it doesn't really need that... I agree it could have more power and it would be immensely fast but then it wouldn't be so cheap anymore. Thats the reason why Alfa gave it a small engine.
Brilliant review and glad to see a review with a real racing driver who appreciates a car like this. A truly special experience in this day and age. For the price, the 4C is a true bargain. The road presence, the feel, unmatched anywhere near the price. Frankly, unmatched period.
It’s an incredibly special thing. Distinctive and full of character.
I'd like to buy one (if I can afford it) and put it in the living room as an object of art. It is stunningly beautiful.
Awesome review. Went out and bought one 2016 4C Spider. I truly enjoy the car and I drive it almost everyday. One badass car by no means!
Brilliant! Congrats!
I bought one here in Dubai... its epic... the low speed cruising sounds are just sublime
hard to find an american who does good automotive reviews. great job you've earned yourself another sub
Adam Othman Thanks Adam! I have to burst your bubble: we're not American.
Brian Makse oh really? where are you guys from?
We're from Toronto, but we obviously spend a bit of time in the U.S.
Brian Makse Cool Im from the GTA as well, thats even better than finding an american journalist because there is no canadian automotive journalists that I've ever heard from
How funny is that! Thanks for watching! We're glad you like our stuff!
Thank you. Your video helped me a lot. This is my next car.
Mine too.
i bought a 16 spider in april. im 60. ive had corvettes and porsches and triumphs. ive never driven anything like this. its INCREDIBLE. launch control ? are you kidding ? 0 to 60 in 4.1. thats faster than a 911. and cool looking beyond compare. a baby ferrarri. ive died and gone to heaven.
Me too Cliff... 60 and just got a Spyder. Had several Boxster S's and this is a beast compared to them.
ive watched 20 reviews. many have nerds and pinheads whinning about this or that... no glove box... loud... really petty stuff. car trolls. lol. this the best car ive ever had. crowds gather all the time... most guys wifes and gf's wont let um have one. gotta have that 4 door thing, for the kids. tisk tisk.
+Cliff States Why haven't you filmed your own RUclips review yet?
I just can't get around the interior... Wish it had more to it for the price tag, but all in all great review and love the Camera work and music choice. It all really accommodated to the styling of this car. Can't wait for more.
The bare carbon makes up for any shortcomings. Massive cool factor. Thanks for watching! We've got great stuff coming up every week!
One of the best video about 4c on youtube!
Fun car. I bought one last summer when I moved to France. Looks good. Sounds good. Eye catching.
Lovely car for France...but I'd be so tempted to try an Alpine 110.
Right?! Also a beauty!
This car just went on my bucket list
Great video
Thanks for watching! It's a very cool car.
Excellent Video!!! Loved It! Just got my 4c
This video hits hard in 2024. Crazy. Whats the sound track Brian?
I have a 2017 4c, so much more character then a bmw or Porsche after I took a test drive I was blown away, I drive mine around the back twisty rd as much as possible. Great cinematically first vid I subscribed
Cool, thanks!
Great review! Keep it up and make more frequent longer reviews PLZ

You're quite right, it doesn't need any more tire.

AlfaEricWashDC Agreed. I believe that Enzo Ferrari, who 'cut his teeth' at ALFA, once famously referred to ALFA Romeo as the Mother of Ferrari.
It's not made in Modena only assembled at Maserati in Modena . But it's made in south of Italy
Comments by Sidhesh Patil - I think the paddle shifters made out of plastic could be viewed as an opportunity for drivers to customize them to individual liking. For example - glue aftermarket tailored silicon grip on the paddle shifters and make it ergonomic.
Nice review.
Just discovered this channel: subscribed!
78glaurung Thanks! More great stuff to come!
Forget the car: excellent photography.
Thanks mate, I have been pushing hard to up our game in that respect. This and the Aston V12 Vantage S Roaster I feel are the prettiest films to date. I will also give a nod to the RR wraith review too.
So did they announce a stick for this car? Awesome review as always !!
No and I don't think there ever will be. Honestly I think a manual would ruin the engine response.
Thanks! No, and the tub is clearly designed for the dual clutch. Plus, I think it drives better with the dual clutch.
Nice review
Thanks - and thanks for watching!
i have #370 of the Launch Edition (USA model). it's absolutely delicious if you're a purist. i wish it had a manual 6, but we can't have it all now, can we? highly recommend!

shivers... Great video!
You can have your shivers, mate!
good music
Great work as usual Nick and Brian. I will have to go with a Cayman on this one, though I will admit that the Alfa is visually stunning and may also be great to drive.

Ok I stand corrected you said Modena, not Milan.
How does the Alfa 4C compare to a 2005-09 Lotus Elise? I'm betting the Elise would have a better brake feel and way better steering feedback.
Don't know. I've never driven one. The company arrived on death's door when I started reviewing cars so I've never been able to test one.
Nice town Moderna :)
Great video!!
Thanks!
where in Michigan are you filming this
+Louis Sullivan Cali
very nice review
great music-where can i find it?
Good stuff
C7 grand sport or this???
That's completely a personal preference thing. Watch our GS video and let us know what you think.
Brian Makse i saw one of these in person and wow. Beautiful car and it sounds incredible... Taking one for a test drive for sure.
I own a 2016 coupe white exterior and red leather interior it’s a very unique car that stands out on the road. Would I buy another one absolutely lol. 0-60 in 4.1. Turbo boost can put ya in your seat. I’m a 26 year old female and seeing anyone in one of these is rare let alone 26 year old. Oil changes are easy if ya do it yourself. Good gas mileage. Nimble. Raw. Reliability has been good so far. Full exposed carbon fiber tube. No muffler or power steering your in full control. Hand built only so many made coupe wise. Overall Not much to complain about other than not driving it in the winter lol. If your looking for creature comfort it’s not the car for that. It’s basic inside all driver oriented.
It’s basically like a cross between a Ferrari and a Lotus Exige the best of both worlds I guess. Not to mention Alfa’s rich racing heritage. Is it the fastest car no but it’s a rocket kid ya not wouldn’t advise dissing it cause it’s a 4 cylinder it’s a beast. I’ve raced and beat 2 hemis and 2 mustangs. It’s quick in dynamic mode push it in 3 gear and hold on lol.
Were those races on the drag strip or a road course?
brian. id love to. but im still a bit of a technobarbarian, and dont know my phone that well. besides, spending all my time in the garage w baby. ive already waxed her, polished rims ( beautiful 10 spoke aluminums) and blacked out the tires. i tuck her in each night. lol.
+Cliff States Are you talking about a woman or a car?
lol. Is there a difference ?
+Cliff States Isn't it obvious?
Not so much... Both are trophies.
It's not a daily car but for a guy (with the right driving experience) is the best "affordable" car; only much more expensive supercar can give the same driving pleasure and performance.
That's an old vid, but I'm pretty sure that's what we said.
great
I think the 4C is cool but, everyone is waiting to see the all new (one size larger) car that is coming soon. It will share it's platform with a new Dodge to fill the size hole between the Challenger and Dart. It may be called Cuda or the new Avenger. It will be the first completely new car thoroughly developed and released by the FCA merger. I can't wait to see this new sports car. I loved my 1970 Cuda I had back in High school years ago. We shall see. ;o)
Trust me I have been pestering my friends at FCA about that car since last Feb. I gave up waiting for that car and just bought an Abarth instead.
Nick Busato I understand your frustration. I just feel there is so much secrecy about this car that it must be worth the wait. I've been following the comments of Ralf Gilles and Sergio Marchionne, as well as release dates of upcoming Alfa Romeo/Maserati new models. I believe the Dodge variant of this car will be a twin turbo V6 sports car available in hard top and convertible for the 2016 model year. FCA isn't fooling around anymore they're investing $60 billion, that's with a "B" over the next few years back into the company. I expect the new car to be a world beater in performance and value. I have to wait and see what happens. ;o)
I'd say buy a 4C while you're waiting!
I'm 6' 2" and probably would feel claustrophobic in the 4C as a daily driver. I'd get a Challenger before the 4C. I just really would like to see the 100% new from the ground up model coming. :o)
Jerome Burrasca Sorry I got two cars confused. I was interested in the next generation giulietta as I love my hatches and wanted to own my first italian car. Anyways with regards to the 4C I am about 5"11 and my seat was not set all the way back. I think someone at cars and coffee was your size fit decently but getting in with longer legs can lack elegance.
the beast
I would buy a 4C over any other car in its category based on looks alone. I find that photos and videos don't do this car any justice. I've seen it in person and this thing is low and wide, def on the same calibre as your supercars when it comes to looks.
You should drive one.
@@BrianMakse Looking to buy one actually! They're quite limited in my country so i'm waiting for the right one to go up for sale.
Sweet
5/5
I like Brian's reviews, but those "NEW" badges are clickbaits.
Any time you have the time to update the thumbnail images, let me know. We can use another volunteer!
Matt Farah with a goatee/beard. haha Anyway, nice review!
Actually the Mastretta MXT has a carbon monocoque, and it's way cheaper than both the Alfa and the McLaren. And this isn't product placement just cause I'm Mexican. :P
enrique3402 Then riddle me this - where can I buy a Mastretta MXT today?
Brian Makse Fair point. But, at least in theory it's still cheaper. lol.
enrique3402 In theory, I can also buy a McLaren F1 with $6 million in Monopoly money.
Brian Makse That'll be the day. Better start saving all that rent I charged from Boardwalk and Park Place.
enrique3402 Hate to nit pick but the Mastretta definitely does not have a carbon tub. Its a lot closer in design to the Lotus Exige. Even the BMW I3 does not technically qualify as a true carbon tub, though it is cheaper.
price
60k
This car can take much more power, over 300 no doubt
***** Eurocompulsion will be tuning these to more than that in no time.
But its so light that its as fast as any other supercar so it doesn't really need that... I agree it could have more power and it would be immensely fast but then it wouldn't be so cheap anymore. Thats the reason why Alfa gave it a small engine.
A lot of a car's character to me anyway ~ comes from manual transmission.
It wouldn't work in this car.
look like old toyota MR2 Spyder so it look cheap
Nice review
