One other advantage of cloth is it holds you in place better. One of the biggest issues with the 4c imo is the crap seats, the car has so much more grip than you do it’s a real battle on track to not slide out of the things! I’d love new seats and harnesses for mine but it is a bloody expensive upgrade.
If you don't already have one, try and get hold of a CG-Lock. Not a harness replacement but definitely holds you better than without as you can really clamp down the lap belt tightness.lawrywild said:

I have searched but seems they’re not really available anymore, if you know otherwise please tell me where to get one

Yeah they aren't manufactured anymore but if you keep an eye on ebay for long enough you can pick one up. I paid £25 for a used and unboxed one and it works perfectly.[quote=jakesmith]Depends what you buy the car for. If you buy it as a functional sports car then cloth makes more sense. Personally to me it’s like a junior / mini supercar as it is so rare and unique looking, and the interior which takes styling hints from Ferrari is big part of that appeal so cloth wouldn’t cut it.

It’s absolutely a mini super car - the attention you get is all good and 0-60 in 4.1 seconds is more than enough with all the bloody cameras and plod about ...

I have leather in mine, with leather dash and a full carbon centre console. It makes the interior a much nicer place to be and does elevate it to more of a mini Ferrari feel. The only thing I really hate are the scratchy plastic door cards and I still intend to get them wrapped in leather to match at some point.

Yeah that’s the way to do it. Stunning.

Get them while you can guys. I have a waiting list of 6 people for these special little things. Finally the UK has woke up to how good there are. Look at European prices!
Prompted by the 4C article in GG last night I had a good look at the European ones as I intend to buy a left hooker.
wow, made my eyes water €72,000 on many then I found the colour I want (Misano Blue) for €82,000 and €88,000.I can struggle with RHD, get a respray/wrap and save a fortune.

Not sure why there is a waiting list when there are cars for sale? Are they all looking for something highly specific?This looks good to me

I couldn't find this link over the 73 pages of this thread so sorry if it's been mentioned but there's a Canadian show called How It's Made Dream Cars on the 4C:

Say what you want about the ride quality, engine smoothness or that it's a poor update to the lovely 33 Stradale, my take-away from the video is that this car was built with as much care and precision as they knew how at the time. It's certainly no Toyota Camry.
They seemed to have brought in a lot of sub-contractors on the car. IMR comes up when they cover the fibre trunk lid etc.
It's an impressive video and reminds me more of the Maclaren than an Audi.

There is a waiting list for certain specs. I’ve now allocated 2 new cars direct to owners.
