My local fiat/alfa dealer has a 4C in stock. It is pure sex. Even better than in photos. I sat in it but didn't drive it. I'm not sure what all the crying at GRM was about. Its really not that hard to get in and out of. You can never see out of exotic cars as well. I guess I just don't feel as old as you guys. The fit and finish is not good enough for a $70K car and there are definately better choices for the money. But when did good decision making come into play for a car like this?

I took my (then) 2-year old to go see the one at Fiat of Tacoma. The salesman asked him "do you know what kind of car that is" (in his best "little kid voice").

To which my son replied "Alfa"

They wouldn't let us sit in it though. I'm insanely jealous and yeah, the brain has little to do with Alfa ownership. There are other parts of the body that are responsible for that sort of stuff.

I saw one on the road here in Metro Detroit about a month ago, took my breath away how beautiful it is. I wouldn't kick one out of my garage

Our local dealer has a few as well, all red or black. They are breathtaking in person.

This thread made me head over to my local dealer's website. It says they have five in stock, starting at $64K. I might need to go kick some tires...

They wouldn't let you sit in it? Wow. I remember an Audi salesman inviting my 13YO son to sit in the first R8 that the dealership ever got. I can't afford that car and probably never will. But years later, it's still my son's ideal of a supercar, and I'm sure if he becomes a tech hotshot, the Audi dealer is the first place that he'll go. If they'd been snotty about it? Not so much.

The salesman said they have already sold 4, and we are in a relatively small market. This one the dealership was keeping, I assume the owners car. If he hadn't let me sit in it I would have told him to go berklely himself, heck a new diesel truck is almost this much.

I saw my first one on the road this morning. Man, they look better in the flesh than in photos. Sounded good too.

yeah the proportions don't really show themselves accurately in photos. They are very unique in person.
