Review: 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C - LeftLane News
This isn't the first time we've seen Alfa Romeo in the U. S. , and it's not even the first time we've seen the brand in the last decade. Before that, Alfa left the U. S. in 1995, following its last hoorah with the 164. By this time, brands like Toyota, Honda and Nissan had found the elixir to create reliable, functional sedans, leaving Alfa Romeo to take its Italian eccentricities... That leaves 20 years behind us, and 20 years for Americans to wax nostalgic for cars once beloved. Alfa Romeo is counting on both, and the brand is making a big splash this year with the launch of one very noticeable 4C sports coupe. It's not hard to tell that the 2015 Alfa Romeo 4C is ultra-small and ultra-alluring. While the obvious comparisons here might be with Porsche Cayman , you'd be surprised to find the Porsche sitting at over a foot longer from nose to tail. Instead, the 4C shares a similar footprint with the now-unobtainable Lotus Elise, making it feel like a relative matchbox car on American highways. the 4C's chunky rear hides a mid-mounted engine under a glass cover, which more than just hints at the sporting intentions behind this car's.
