Read two first drive reports on the Alfa 4C.

 

WANT. Not much slower than a Stingray, MUCH lighter, and will be a heck of a lot more unique (1000 cars a year MAX production worldwide).

 

Production car without a muffler, partially built using hand laid carbon fiber, same materials and methods as F1 cars. Do you need to know more?

 

Oh wait...no back seat....CRAP.

Pass. Tiny Italian car with a tiny engine. Magazine reviews comparing it with the Jag F-Type and equivalent Porsche (Caymen?) have it not competing. The F-Type is sex on wheels and the best looking Jag in decades, I'd take one of those in a heartbeat over the Alfa.

It should be better, its 20K more.

Whatever. If there's anything more risky than buying a British car it'd be buying an Italian one. There's a reason none of the mainline Italian brands lasted over here.

FERRARI

 

Probably the most consistently appreciating maker with some of the highest selling prices...and epitomizes Italian sportscars. The single largest market for them is the states.

 

Aston Martin British cars are solid values and continue to appreciate at surprising rates.

You know I'm talking main line/common brands. High line stuff like that or Lambi is it's own world.

So going off topic, yall know of any way to remove the smell of lighter fluid from my truck toolbox? I had a bottle and it fell over and spilled out and now every time I open it I get hit by the fumes. Do you thing a couple boxes of baking soda would absorb most of the smell?

Wouldn't hurt. Leave the lid open for a day or two.
