The new Alfa 4C

Some of the pictures I took at Geneva MotorShow.

Parrot entertainment system?

[Paso 239]

I've noticed the Parrot too! I think that the reason is because of its clean dashboard design, nothing else.

[ALXege 75]

It is a dedicated HU, when turned on, the display shows the Alfa Romeo logo.

I dont hate the headlights, but for me the mirrors are a huge spoil, the stem is so huge like a freaky mushroom. And the steering wheel is a bit fiat-derived, especially the center piece.

Another disappointment for me which I only just noticed are the old fashioned heater knobs. These are the 916 phase 1 type of knobs, while the 156 introduced once that were also used on the 916 phase 2/3 are much nicer...

The heater is from a fiat seicento.

It is light but also a strong heater mechanism.

All about weight..

I read rants about the heater knobs, etc... But people obviously misunderstood the concept of the car.

yeah, this are just small things, overall this car will be great, hoefully a big success. It took a while when they turned from hatchback-producer to their usual coupés/spiders (where is the spider?)

No thanks guys. Apart from some design issues ( headlights ) it is mainly the price that bothers me. 60K in the Netherlands. I think Alfa should focus on bread and butter cars. Where is the 159 replacement? The Mito and Guilietta are also not that fresh anymore. Alfa should focus on the fundamentals, before you introduce something like a 4C.

 

I remember the time of the 147, 156, 166, GTV and Spider.....Every corporate driver wanted a 156. 

 

I am sorry to say, that I do not see this happening in the near future. Rebadged Dodge's and Chryslers will be the future.

 

That is why I love my Spider and Delta. Even the newer Spider suffers from lack of passion. I will even go as far as, the worst car I have ever bought.

If you search well enough, a 360 Spider should also be possible. A 4C launch edition is a whopping 68K over here.
