The fake bonnet is designed for cheaper fixing. If you dent your front bumper or your wheel arch, then you don't need to change tge whole front of the car, only the damaged part.
I've got to stop and say, Sam. Your channel has flourished over the last 6 months. The camera quality is astonishing, the content is mind blowing, your knowledge is deep and your personality suits this type of content so well. Thank you for producing some of the best free content on RU-vid; you will go far on this website.
+Seen Through Glass good to know. While I'm here, do you know why alfa decided to weld the bonnet shut? Is there something under it that stopped them putting the boot in?
+Seen Through Glass there´s a nice remap by pogea racing, i think it`s up to 320hp or something like that and a guy here in germany runs with it. 3.9sec 0-60mph that`s so sick!But stock is enough i think! Between, loving your golden rims..reminds me to scuderia and speciale!
The gold colour rims seem to be pretty cool, but in my opinion if you could get them to be grey, black, some where in between there it'd suit the car more. Otherwise great videos and I hope your channel grows real big!
Sam! You deserve way more subs. The way you film and give commentary in your videos is just hilarious and fun to watch. Next year you should come to some dutch Alfa Romeo events like Viva Italia or Spettacolo Sportivo, your 4C would fit perfectly amongst they others! :) Greetings from a dutch alfisti
i got to see a 4c launch edition at a dealer it is such an awesome car also saw 2 f types love them as well but would take the 4c over the f type any day
Time to come to Singapore, my friend. You won't regret it, trust me on that. Preferably during the F1 raceday as Marina Bay is buzzing. We have Millienia Walk where you get like 10++ Supercars a day, it's guaranteed!
Everyone needs to think of some new questions to be asking each video. :P Good vid Sam, you just need the subs to be where they should be, like 200,000 or more.
I'm an Alfa 4c owner, and the front bonnet is not fake. It has wiring in the front. The mechanics take that off and put it on the wall when they work on the car. Also the trunk is not bad at all, I have put over $100 worth of groceries in the back. It's more spacious than it looks.
Incredible car!!! About the bonnet: the car has separated panels so when you crash it is easier and cheaper to repair, other than that there is no purpose of that
+Arthur Sperotto Seats are pretty intense - took a while to get used to them - they are supportive but have very little cushioning so on long journeys can be pretty harsh on the backside ;) ha
I would invest in this car but there are too many downsides. i REALLY hope alfa realizes the beauty in their cars and invest the time and money to make it something closer to, for example 2016 mx-5, in practicality/usability.
Are you talking about film on your body paint? I saw scuff marks on your door interior panel. It looks like your shoe marks. As I am being very careful t time, I still can't avoid not kicking my door interior door panel(where usually a little behind the door speakers location. And I used the GT3RS only in some occasion. I know you live in a big city and a busy guy. Keep a few nice micro fiber towels and a bottle spot clean spray and a bottle interior dressing would help.
+Seen Through Glass haha.. I hope so.. It would be heart broken for you. Tip note: use a gentle approach, You could avoid dirt and scuff if you ask your guest enter your 4c with bare foot. Some people just have no clue to respect other's car. Car, camera, phone and pen are a personal item.
dude, do you know someone want to change the bug-eyes headlights into pop-headlights? I'm in US and I love the bug-eyes better, but there is only pop headlight on USA delivers.
+Seen Through Glass is the car really that loud? :D can you scare people with it? because my cousin has a mercedes cla 250 sport and its pretty loud when we go out on a cruise at the city we scare people all the time :P
THAT was a fantastically terrible Italian accent impression, Sir! Nice work with the gold rims and black side wrap. Please do us a favor (as well as for yourself) and take her to the track! :D
The bonnet is not fake. Only it contains non user serviceable parts of the car (radiator, suspension etc), except the windscreen washer that is. If you must, there is a video by Book Autowerks on RU-vid (Alfa 4C Hood Removal). Don’t, however, do this! That’s for everyone else, as I know you sold yours! Why........???
What bothers me a lot in these kind of video's. Is that you're 'complaining' about stuff that makes it a true drivers cars. No powersteering? Exactly, that's so you have way more feeling of what the car is doing. No pop up cilinders for the bonnet? Alfa's breaking down is something of the past. Nowadays the engine does vroom and that is it. And no room for shopping? Wait, was that you saying that or your girlfriend. But I am done bitching about this video. You have some great content. And actually... I'm kind of loving the 4c more than a lotus elise (which is my true dreamcar...)
+Jochem Kanters Haha please always remember that my videos are mainly based on sarcasm or a bit of tongue and cheek humour. To come back to you on some points, I love the power steering - if you watch my review of the car you will hear me talk about how amazing the feeling and precise steering it gives you. I just know a lot of people are surprised when a modern car has no power steering. With the boot, i was just pointing out that it has a latch rather than pneumatic system like most modern cars and regarding the shopping, people for some reason always ask how big the boot is. As you can see, i hardly ever but anything in it haha. I use it as more of a rubbish bin than a boot. And I wish I had a girlfriend who could complain about the car! haha. Anyway, appreciate your comment and thanks for watching!! I just didn't want you to think I was hating on my own car!!
+Seen Through Glass Dude, I'm sorry for my sarcastic bitching. Because we all know what happend now. When you are a true car lover, your own car means everything to you. I have a crappy skoda from '94, but it's mine. And therefor it's the best. Take care, everything is going to be allright. Oh yeah, what's the adress of the repair shop it's in. In that way I could send the car a get well soon card :P
i hope your making jokes... or do you seriously think these are the reasons for the lack of powersteering and why the bonnet (that isnt one) still looks like one?
Sounds a little like an x1/9, no power steering, can be a convertible with detachable roof, mid engined, Italian, under a ton and the whole being 'unconventional'
