The 4C isn't enough for AR to make an immediate impact.
IMO, they should've brought a mainstream model to supplement the 4C, like the Giulietta.
But I read somewhere that 2015 will be a full lineup return.
Can never have enough AR, looking forward to seeing them on our streets.
Maserati, mo' Maserati....

Great looking car, love the idea of a high-strung turbo too. Don't love the $60k USD pricetag.
So much want. Can't afford. =(
On sale this summer, I'm sure we'll see a few in the city.
The nearly 20-year wait is over – Alfa Romeo made its return to Canada at the Montreal Grand Prix, unveiling its 2015 4C two-seat sports car Thursday at the annual Crescent Street Grand Prix Festival.
“What better place to debut an all-new performance vehicle inspired by Alfa Romeo’s legendary racing history, than at a festival celebrating the largest motorsports event in Canada?” said Reid Bigland, president and CEO of Chrysler Canada, in a press release. “With its purposeful design for maximum performance, the all-new 4C coupe is sure to be the talk of the Crescent Street Grand Prix Festival.”
The Alfa Romeo 4C features a 237-horsepower, 1.8-litre four-cylinder engine and a dynamic twin-clutch transmission wrapped in a light-weight carbon-fibre body. It’s sure to go like stink as the little two-seater only weighs 998 kilograms (2,200 pounds). It goes on sale in Canada this summer. Pricing has not been announced but the base model is expected to sell for about $54,000 (U.S.) south of the border.

Dangerously close to Cayman pricing. With Cayman S's starting at $74k that hit 60 in the 4.2 second range (according to Motor Trend), I'd like to see the 4C coming in around $64k well-optioned. That'd be a great price disparity between the two and would really cause me to think twice were I buying a new Cayman.
IMO, that's pretty cheap for what you get!
That is cheap for a carbon tub car.

You guys forget.. This car's width is 78.7". It's over 10" wider than most cars.
A Costco parking space would be like a regular space for this car.
Yeah, the Top Gear episode made it's large width quite apparent.
Still excited that Alfa is coming to Canada. Hopefully we'll see a few of these in the city.
So just park really far away...Originally posted by Disoblige

Edit: It's a cool car don't get me wrong, I'm just thinking of the headaches of driving this car because it's so wide. Have to really think about where I'm going before I decide to take this car out for a drive lol.

Given the trunk space, the car has no business being at Costco in the first place.Originally posted by Disoblige

Haha Calgary roads are more than compliant to width. It's no London side-street where it was built during the 1800s.Originally posted by Disoblige

Everytime you go to the mall, you'll have a laminated note apologizing for taking two spots on the dash.
I was at the Grey Eagle casino last night and noticed how much space I had on each side of my car. Some big ass stalls there too.Originally posted by rage2

It reminds me of a Lotus Evora from the side.
Hahaha. So ironic.Originally posted by Xtrema

May be it's for weight saving but at least give me a carry-on space in the front. As it is, the car is no better than a bike. I can't even do a weekender for 2 unless I'm going to a nudist camp.Originally posted by Disoblige
