GALLERY: Alfa Romeo 4C Spider – US-spec version

alfa romeo 4c us spec 13

Alfa Romeo has released a slew of new images of its 4C Spider in its US-spec form – the droptop made its debut in Detroit earlier this year and arrives in North American showrooms later in the summer, priced from US$63,900 (RM240,000).

Like its 4C coupe sibling, the Spider is powered by the familiar mid-mounted all-aluminium ‘1750’ turbocharged four-pot with 237 hp and 350 Nm, and the TBi is mated to a TCT seven-speed dry twin-clutch transmission and an Alfa DNA driving mode selector system. Performance figures include a 0-100 km/h time of 4.1 seconds and a 258 km/h top speed.

When it arrives in the US, the 4C Spider will be available in seven exterior colours, including Rosso Competizione Tri-coat (red), Madreperla White Tri-coat and a yellow called Giallo Prototipo. Six interior combination choices abound, and these include black, red and a two-tone combi of Tobacco and black.

Six wheel designs are available, four of them new for the application here, and the 4C can be specified with either a standard or a race exhaust as well as an Akrapovic dual-mode titanium exhaust system.

Also on the options list is a Track Package, which adds high-performance shock absorbers with larger front- and rear-sway bars as well as Pirelli P-Zero “AR Racing” tyres. The pack also throws in a flat-bottom steering wheel with microfibre inserts, carbon-fibre exterior mirrors and a carbon-fibre gauge cluster bezel, plus the availability of black leather performance seats with microfibre inserts and red or yellow accent stitching.

    The 2nd half is cantiq, especially the rear.

    Among all the generations of Waja, the original is the most cantiq.

    Pity we won’t be able to see this model in Malaysia since there is no official Alfa presence here. I can’t even see one on sale through the grey imports either.
