This has just been announced. I'd go for one over the new mx5 if I'm honest.

Nice. Shame it was supposed to be the new Alfa Spyder. Looks really good and it's the same base as the MX-5 so can't really go wrong.
Why are 4C's still so expensive here ($100k+)
I'm glad they brought the name back. My old flatmate had a very early 70s 124 sport. Lovely car for the era. Twin cam, four wheel disc brakes. Unheard of back then and even still not standard well into the 90s and '00s

4c's are expensive because they have a fiberglass body. And to that Fiat, my Gf is leasing a 500 right and when the 241 Roadster gets released she might be able to seemlessly transition to it with just a small extra payment. That means I might be driving it too soon

The Fiat version looks a bit shocked.
Abarth or bust!

They always do more tame looking versions but I do get her point.
no idea maayte. If an Italian company makes something that isn't JDM i'll let you know. It might have a sticker or two so it might be a deal breaker. It might have 'alloy wheels' too.
So I'm a lucky bloke today.
Went to see an apartment, got in traffic, was on a hill..brakes gave way (just thought it was me being slack!)..thought nothing for a moment..started driving, used brake and it was grinding and could smell burning.
"Ok Google".."Find me the nearest garage" lol...Turns out brake pads had totally gone....And I was about to go on the M1 so a very lucky man!
...£45 fitted...dunno if that's good or bad.
That Mechanic lad has a meme worthy face there lol

Have you guys seen this video series?: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLGSOZAHg1yQEatqhWza_ae83e313-GLTO
Pretty amazing what these guys achieve without any crazy expensive equipment imo. I've been following their project for a while and I find it very interesting and entertaining.

Seeing as DC motors are the most powerful motor in the world this doesn't surprise me nice video though
It's the instant power delivery, but what I like is the guy's reaction on the bike
