Former Alfa service manager, I;'ve driven at least a dozen of these and Doug, if anything, understated the driving experience compared to everything else Italian. The steering is impossibly direct, the tight suspension and the noise make it an incredible car to pilot. With a tune and an exhaust these things are absolute weapons, 300hp this car is untouchable for value for money. Cons: regular services are very expensive compared to a regular vehicle, an oil change at my location was $495 and took about 90 minutes due to all the fragile panels that had to be removed to access the engine. Factory wheel powder coating was known to melt under track conditions, saw it several times. purchasing experience was not great for most of the dealerships my customers went to, limited availability and douchey salesmen ruined purchasing this car for a lot of owners I met.

@wardenfiddyblunt
@wardenfiddyblunt 2 года назад
@@tye9713 when it comes to cars like this you need to consider the cost benefit ratio, when you are putting 2-5,000 miles a year on the car so you are changing the oil once a year it's acceptable for an annual cost of ownership for what you get out of the driving experience. Cars at this level don't make sense when you only look at the numbers, get behind the wheel and make the decision for yourself.

In the same light if you want a reality check, see how much Nissan charges for an oil change in an r35.

They aren't unreliable, it's just the whole Alfa stigma they got many, many years ago. They put that same engine in numerous other, more daily-driveable Alfas and it was fine. I drive a 20 year old Alfa 156 (which was gifted to me and I doubt I ever would've went for it if I was buying a car myself) and it shocked me how good and reliable that car turned out to be. I don't even wanna go for anything newer as it does everything I ask from it, including long road trips. I was never an Alfa fanboy, but my experience has been so pleasant I do believe my next is also going to be an Alfa.
@jacobhaagerup7816
@jacobhaagerup7816 2 года назад
You're absolutely right. They aren't unreliable. The thing is that they do not take kindly to deferred or lacking maintenance and if you don't change the oil when you're supposed to etc. they will punish you. But that's your fault - not the car's.
@pete3198
@pete3198 2 года назад
Agree. I had a Giulietta QV with 6 speed manual (which has the same basic motor as the 4C), and it was the most reliable car I ever owned - a list that includes a Lexus, a couple of Fords, a Subaru, a Mazda MX5, and my current Mercedes C-Class. My only criticism was that that car was a little TOO accomplished - it was a great car to own and drive, but lacked the Alfa charm I was used to. I also had a 147 GTA for about 5 years and honestly, for most the time I had it that thing was also surprisingly reliable. I was regretfully in a pretty bad financial state when I bought that car, so for a number of years the car failed to get the maintenance it deserved, and yet it was till very realible. That only ended in my last year of ownship where the ECU failed and had to be replaced. Despite my inability to properly maintain the car I absolutely loved the thing with all my heart, and was thrilled that it was bought by a true Alfa lover who was willing to spend the money and time to bring it back to it's former glory. The only Alfa I owned that game me major issues was my first one (a 147 GTA Twin Spark with Selespeed gearbox) - and I think you can already understand why. I loved the car a bunch, but despite the car being in outstanding condition (and having very low mileage) when I got it that Selespeed eventually started to have issues, and when it did it was a bit of a disaster. But I dont really blame Alfa for that because that basic gearbox design has been used in everything from Maseratis, to Ferraris, to Lamborghinis to Aston Martins.
@facex33
@facex33 2 года назад
Unfortunately i was not so lucky with my Giulietta. Absolutely worst car ever when it comes to reliability. I had to replace the engine with ~70k km, 3 times i had to replace the door handle, the gear knob is also cutting my fingers (surface is slowly peeling off), button on the tailgate had to be replaced including the rear breaking light and many, many more issues. But i still love her, that's my "problem", cause driving is still top, direct and still top notch. And now i need to drive it even longer to get all the money that i put in back. But it will be my last new Italian car (also as there is nothing that would fit at the moment my needs) And yeah i have/had enough Italian cars (still owning a '77 Alfetta GTV 2000)

The 4C looks a lot like the 8C but they're very different otherwise but i'm glad they kept a lot of the Design of the 8C when making the 4C. I always wonder if they made the 4C because they were surprised by how fast the 8C sold out and how popular the Design was, anyone here can shed light on that? Prost & Cheers from the Bavarian Alps

I used to have a 2016 4C Coupe with every option. I learned some stuff watching this video lol. I can confirm you get a lot of attention driving this around town. I put on over 1,000 miles a month when I had mine. It was always a visceral experience driving it. You can hear the transmission go into gear when you put it in 1st. Doug forgot to mention the carbon fiber headlight housings. At the end of the day, it wasn’t for me. I think I got unlucky and ended up with the worst example ever made with an absurdly long dealership service history for a 4 year old car and the dealerships and customer service were an absolute nightmare to deal with on warranty work.

@@yungboicontigo9278 yes i get that, they also have racing slicks, etc. But those are race cars not cars built around the joy of driving, and even though race cars arent six speeds they are certainly not changing gears with a dodge dart automatic. Ive driven a few 4c’s. Transmission is the #1 reason the car failed. Based on looks, heritage, chassis, the 4c is an all time great. But not having a six speed doomed the car. Put a gated six speed in the 4c and it is a 100k car.

Too bad Doug didn't mention that...I'm guessing "race mode" makes it so you can get the rear end loose while drifting around corners better? Or does it affect the shifting too?
