The fake bonnet is designed for cheaper fixing. If you dent your front bumper or your wheel arch, then you don't need to change tge whole front of the car, only the damaged part.
I've got to stop and say, Sam. Your channel has flourished over the last 6 months. The camera quality is astonishing, the content is mind blowing, your knowledge is deep and your personality suits this type of content so well. Thank you for producing some of the best free content on RUclips; you will go far on this website.
+Seen Through Glass good to know. While I'm here, do you know why alfa decided to weld the bonnet shut? Is there something under it that stopped them putting the boot in?
+Seen Through Glass there´s a nice remap by pogea racing, i think it`s up to 320hp or something like that and a guy here in germany runs with it. 3.9sec 0-60mph that`s so sick!But stock is enough i think! Between, loving your golden rims..reminds me to scuderia and speciale!
The gold colour rims seem to be pretty cool, but in my opinion if you could get them to be grey, black, some where in between there it'd suit the car more. Otherwise great videos and I hope your channel grows real big!
I'm an Alfa 4c owner, and the front bonnet is not fake. It has wiring in the front. The mechanics take that off and put it on the wall when they work on the car. Also the trunk is not bad at all, I have put over $100 worth of groceries in the back. It's more spacious than it looks.
i got to see a 4c launch edition at a dealer it is such an awesome car also saw 2 f types love them as well but would take the 4c over the f type any day
Time to come to Singapore, my friend. You won't regret it, trust me on that. Preferably during the F1 raceday as Marina Bay is buzzing. We have Millienia Walk where you get like 10++ Supercars a day, it's guaranteed!
Sam! You deserve way more subs. The way you film and give commentary in your videos is just hilarious and fun to watch. Next year you should come to some dutch Alfa Romeo events like Viva Italia or Spettacolo Sportivo, your 4C would fit perfectly amongst they others! :) Greetings from a dutch alfisti
Incredible car!!! About the bonnet: the car has separated panels so when you crash it is easier and cheaper to repair, other than that there is no purpose of that
I would invest in this car but there are too many downsides. i REALLY hope alfa realizes the beauty in their cars and invest the time and money to make it something closer to, for example 2016 mx-5, in practicality/usability.
Everyone needs to think of some new questions to be asking each video. :P Good vid Sam, you just need the subs to be where they should be, like 200,000 or more.
THAT was a fantastically terrible Italian accent impression, Sir! Nice work with the gold rims and black side wrap. Please do us a favor (as well as for yourself) and take her to the track! :D
The bonnet is not fake. Only it contains non user serviceable parts of the car (radiator, suspension etc), except the windscreen washer that is. If you must, there is a video by Book Autowerks on RUclips (Alfa 4C Hood Removal). Don’t, however, do this! That’s for everyone else, as I know you sold yours! Why........???
dude, do you know someone want to change the bug-eyes headlights into pop-headlights? I'm in US and I love the bug-eyes better, but there is only pop headlight on USA delivers.
+Arthur Sperotto Seats are pretty intense - took a while to get used to them - they are supportive but have very little cushioning so on long journeys can be pretty harsh on the backside ;) ha
Are you talking about film on your body paint? I saw scuff marks on your door interior panel. It looks like your shoe marks. As I am being very careful t time, I still can't avoid not kicking my door interior door panel(where usually a little behind the door speakers location. And I used the GT3RS only in some occasion. I know you live in a big city and a busy guy. Keep a few nice micro fiber towels and a bottle spot clean spray and a bottle interior dressing would help.
+Seen Through Glass haha.. I hope so.. It would be heart broken for you. Tip note: use a gentle approach, You could avoid dirt and scuff if you ask your guest enter your 4c with bare foot. Some people just have no clue to respect other's car. Car, camera, phone and pen are a personal item.
+Seen Through Glass is the car really that loud? :D can you scare people with it? because my cousin has a mercedes cla 250 sport and its pretty loud when we go out on a cruise at the city we scare people all the time :P
What bothers me a lot in these kind of video's. Is that you're 'complaining' about stuff that makes it a true drivers cars. No powersteering? Exactly, that's so you have way more feeling of what the car is doing. No pop up cilinders for the bonnet? Alfa's breaking down is something of the past. Nowadays the engine does vroom and that is it. And no room for shopping? Wait, was that you saying that or your girlfriend. But I am done bitching about this video. You have some great content. And actually... I'm kind of loving the 4c more than a lotus elise (which is my true dreamcar...)
+Jochem Kanters Haha please always remember that my videos are mainly based on sarcasm or a bit of tongue and cheek humour. To come back to you on some points, I love the power steering - if you watch my review of the car you will hear me talk about how amazing the feeling and precise steering it gives you. I just know a lot of people are surprised when a modern car has no power steering. With the boot, i was just pointing out that it has a latch rather than pneumatic system like most modern cars and regarding the shopping, people for some reason always ask how big the boot is. As you can see, i hardly ever but anything in it haha. I use it as more of a rubbish bin than a boot. And I wish I had a girlfriend who could complain about the car! haha. Anyway, appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!! I just didn't want you to think I was hating on my own car!!
+Seen Through Glass Dude, I'm sorry for my sarcastic bitching. Because we all know what happend now. When you are a true car lover, your own car means everything to you. I have a crappy skoda from '94, but it's mine. And therefor it's the best. Take care, everything is going to be allright. Oh yeah, what's the adress of the repair shop it's in. In that way I could send the car a get well soon card :P
Sounds a little like an x1/9, no power steering, can be a convertible with detachable roof, mid engined, Italian, under a ton and the whole being 'unconventional'
i hope your making jokes... or do you seriously think these are the reasons for the lack of powersteering and why the bonnet (that isnt one) still looks like one?
You may have seen this already Sam, but it's a great article, and you might enjoy the video halfway down the article too! www.evo.co.uk/news/evonews/289849/alfa_romeo_4c_tech_rundown_and_video.html
No power steering, no electric boot, no bonnet, this car makes me think of 1950s italian racing cars. Absolutely fantastic!
Great video Sam. Loving the camera quality man, makes you different from all the others
+7thejoey Thanks for watching - glad you enjoyed it

Fantastic video again. Love the shallow depth of field you achieve with your camera gear
+Mumbo Jumbo Cheers buddy - no plans to remap any time soon - car is fast enough as is for me - might kill myself any fast haha

Jeremy Clarkson has one... that has to be a plus

+Sapphire Thanks for watching! The wheels were actually originally a dark gunmetal grey and i changed them for gold ha - differing tastes :)
+Seen Through Glass Ohh okay, well don't worry too much. Those go well with the car too ;)

Started following the channel when you got the 8c. Quality of the video is great, but quality has gone up massively since then, great work sam!
Sam!
You deserve way more subs. The way you film and give commentary in your videos is just hilarious and fun to watch. Next year you should come to some dutch Alfa Romeo events like Viva Italia or Spettacolo Sportivo, your 4C would fit perfectly amongst they others! :)

+Gertjan De Haan Thanks mate! Really appreciate the feedback and glad you enjoy the videos! Would love to come over at some point :)
Get an F-Type!
Get an F-type Sam
JUST DO IT!!!
+Supercars of London I disliked this
+Seen Through Glass Have you considered to change your headlights with the new version of it?
+Supercars of London Yes, there are plenty (around 4 or 3?) Citroens more powerful than that, but Citroen makes high torque engines.
I love the carbon fiber tube, but it isn't easy to get into the car because of it. I was able to sit in the spyder at IAA, loved it!:D
More vid from the 4c please. I love this little fucker.
The 4c is a work of art man it should be worth 100k it's beautiful!!
Incredible car!!! About the bonnet: the car has separated panels so when you crash it is easier and cheaper to repair, other than that there is no purpose of that
Bro what a wonderful piece of automobile industry you own God bless us all
MORE 4C Videos!
Cheers!
sam, you should have included the fact that if you hold the drive select button it turns into race mode and the traction control turns off
+Mohamed Haji Ali Yes! However I did include that in my full review video :)
You always find a way to make me laugh or giggle xD
brilliant videos ! this is what a blog should be , not like paul sol lately !
hi Sam, would love to see you doing new car reviews i think you got what it takes..top vid btw
hope the manufacturers are reading this
Paul from SOL this is thee quality video we want from your channel on the Lamborghini, make it seem like you care! (I know you do)
When you think the Bonet isn’t a bonnet on this it’s where the bumper and the fenders attach
Didnt realise it had a carbon fibre tub! Thats badass! Love your videos man you so funny haha
Is it a Panerai on your wrist? In my opinion, alfas and panerais fit perfectly together. You seem to have a great taste!
that guy is a natural in front of the camera
Would love to see more "Idiots Go _______". Always hilarious!
and u forgotten to mention about the "HamsterBox" hahaha
Simply brilliant thanks for uploading, good jobb stg
+Shaeed Ghaffar Thanks mate
I would invest in this car but there are too many downsides. i REALLY hope alfa realizes the beauty in their cars and invest the time and money to make it something closer to, for example 2016 mx-5, in practicality/usability.
Do a video of your watch collection ;) would love to see that as well as the video above, funny stuff, keep it coming.
Actually the boot is quite big, compared to a Lotus Exige MK2 or Vauxhall VX220.
later that day he got it damaged feel sorry for him after seeing the other video. Anyone watching in 2018?
Everyone needs to think of some new questions to be asking each video. :P
Good vid Sam, you just need the subs to be where they should be, like 200,000 or more.
Show more video's of the 4c. like them!!!!!
Hey Sam great video plz can I try to do daily vlogs and videos like Paul cos ur content is awesome thanks!
Love it, Sam! Made me laugh when you squad and almost poop. Good camera angle.
THAT was a fantastically terrible Italian accent impression, Sir!
Nice work with the gold rims and black side wrap. Please do us a favor (as well as for yourself) and take her to the track! :D
+H Kone Haha! My accents are always horrendous!! Yes, track day is on the horizon
Funny video love how u can point that things out with no problem at all hehe

Great video, Sam! How are the seats? The seats on my S2000 look awesome but they are surprisingly unsupportive.
+Arthur Sperotto Seats are pretty intense - took a while to get used to them - they are supportive but have very little cushioning so on long journeys can be pretty harsh on the backside ;) ha
good stuff! :) nice to see your channel growing! love the 4c.
Are you talking about film on your body paint? I saw scuff marks on your door interior panel. It looks like your shoe marks.

+Frank Kwok The marks come straight out with a wash...the car was just dirty - i think you were seeing dirt rather than scuffs
+Seen Through Glass haha.. I hope so.. It would be heart broken for you. Tip note: use a gentle approach, You could avoid dirt and scuff if you ask your guest enter your 4c with bare foot.
Some people just have no clue to respect other's car. Car, camera, phone and pen are a personal item.
you should make a 17 day long episode and i would watch it in one go
+MongoMango Haha good plan
Now that super cars of london is doing modball 2016 will you ?

+Jp singh Thanks for watching!
Great video as usual! Gotta work on that Italian accent though... ;)

Fiat 500 door mirrors and Alfa Romeo Mito rear lights
Seen through glass
In Denmark it costs 130.000 pounds :( thats a bit more than expected

You're hilarious ... man seriously 😂😂
+shamida kotibhaskar Ha thanks mate
I got to say its more comfy than an Aventador

You might not know, they made an edition called the "Idiot'o edition" and it comes in red and gold wheels ;)
+ThatGuyNamedScott. C Haha suits me perfectly then :)

Re watching your videos: Do you miss it?
Is your exhaust stock? cause it's loud af
+Jake Kia Ha its the race exhaust - stock for all launch editions - everyone is always surprised by how good it sounds
Seen Trogh Glass WHATS UPP! Bro

MiTo rear lights!

It's not about HP dude....its about the feel. Even i give u 800HP car if you dont feel it , u cant beat it the 240HP!!!
Sam, Is this video the end of the love with the beautiful 4C? LoL
How much is this car worth?
i have a matching car red launc edition 4c

+Benedict Clarke Thanks

Why couldn't they have put additional storage in the front instead of creating that fake line.
+Vincent Chung because the car is meant for track and curves not holding your groceries wtf
You're surely feigning myopia, right?
i hope your making jokes... or do you seriously think these are the reasons for the lack of powersteering and why the bonnet (that isnt one) still looks like one?
Nice Rolex Daytona though :)
+FireFire Ace Thanks! From watchesldn.com/
+Seen Through Glass what happened to your Daytona? Haven't seen it in any of your videos since this...
I’d love to Wrestle that steering wheel
Bronze wheels awesome do you have any other fast cars
