Received an Alfa 4C brochure through the post today.

As the title says really. I received a proper-ish brochure for the Alfa 4C today - seems pretty serious for just a concept car.
I'm smitten with it anyway. Wasn't 100% at first but every line suits me perfectly. Would have preferred engine in front and some mini back seats but nevermind!

Anyone else get one?

[Redmax]

No. Can you scan it and post a link?

Plus one.
I think they're onto a winner with the 4C , it is a beautiful looking car.
Dare I say it but I like it more than the 8C.

[carl0s]

No but I might be able to photograph it later and post. Leave it with me!

Ahh, that the brochure sent out 3 months ago to the list folks I presume. Im not aware of any new ones sent out since then...and seeing as my dealer is on ph Ill give him a kick if it is and he hasnt let me know

It certainly was a very flash brochure, but all the information contained within has been widely known for a while now.

By all acounts the 8C isn't that great, but this on the other hand really could be. There was some talk a while back about alfa going rwd for a good number of future models so hopefully this is the start of something really exciting.

No, nothing new in it I shouldn't think (how could there be something in there that's not already on all the cutting-edge spyshot-grabbing sites/blogs/magazines), but I thought it was interesting that they were sending out brochures. It strengthens thoughts that they will actually produce it! I just hope they don't water it down like they did the Brera.

What list folks do you mean? They only just sent it to me obviously! I wasn't sure if it's because I was an Alfa customer 12 years ago (GTV), or if I'd filled something out on their website regarding the 4C.

Thats sublime,love it!

[carl0s]

I bet the steering wheel bottom isn't a solid slab of metal on the finished article. Looks great though.
Could you get an airbag in that steering wheel?

[carl0s]

You missed the best picture BTW.
There's one of the side in which the rear and bootlid look fabulous.

[madbadger]

Sweet.

I'll be buying the Spider version...

[drakart]

I was under the impression that they have just pulled the plug on the 4c...

[RichB]

Where did you hear this?

Everything seems to be to the contrary at the moment.

-Brochure
-Latest Alfa magazine - Review with design/technical team stating they are aiming for the 850kg zone with 900kg max and lots of talk about the production model
-Big Alfa 4C reveal at the Frankfurt motor show (many expecting the 4C production version to be sat there)

e.t.c e.t.c

[Nano2nd]

got mine too, hopefully it won't be silly priced!

[RichB]

And because it's on a very stiff Dallara carbon fibre platform they should be able to do a Spider version, yes?

You're thinking of the Abarth version.
