2015 Alfa Romeo 4C Launch Edition

This is not a bad turbocharged 4 cylinder! Fully loaded is the same price as a Corvette Stingray, but rides like the Porsche Cayman! Oh yeah the Launch Edition is the model that will be for sale in the U.S.

I love that car, but I wish the seats were adjustable and the hood didn't require removal of bolts to open (from what I've read). Oh well, I guess you can't have everything.

I'll consider getting rid of the Camaro next year for one of these, depending on the options available.

Wait until the launch release is sold out, get a general release vehicle and save $20k.

I have always owned and Alfa and still have my first car which was is Alfa that I bought in 1986. That said I was in the market for the 4c but delayed launch, and the tap shift put me in the ZL1. I guess I am in the 1% of something.

But it IS a manual - just an automatically controlled one.

All the efficiency of a manual, but never a missed shift.
