At least epoxy resin & carbon fibre can't rust.

Yeah... should be good having it bolted, I mean assembled by the Maserati guys.

At least they do that same type of manufacture (high end stuff like expoxy, carbon fibre) day in day out so it should help the quality.

Can't wait for it to land in Oz.....should boost the brand if the media & scribes jump on board.

Still not sure about those headlights though!

I couldn't care less about the headlights...it's lightweight, powerful and rwd. Now I just have to figure out what I can sell to afford one.

Article on pistonheads about the 4C.

Should be a nice addition to my 105's in about 15 years (after Alfa depreciation has taken hold and tapered off).

Can't believe I have only just picked up on this thread again.

I vote 1 for Sheldon - Colin would be smiling at the 4C (got Enzo again)!

....and bonded alloy tubbed chassis not even mentioned in previous musings. Hope the 4C can excede an Exige but doubt it.

Here is an interesting stat, via Sniffpetrol twitter feed

@sniffpetrol: The Alfa 4C is 17mm wider than the new Range Rover and 101mm wider than a Rolls-Royce Phantom. Staggering.
