Hmm. Yeah... I think that's also creeping into the top tier Z4 territory too.

No thank you on the vette, don't want a GM. Caymen s on the other hand I have always loved and considered also. But I want something rare and exotic looking and that 4c is sex on wheels.

This is a great sports car also, even before I got the 350z hr I was eyeing the elise which is still in my top 3 cars I would choose.

The 4C and GIULIA are Ferrari influenced. Fiat is Chrysler influenced. They're not being built from the same parts bins. They just have the same corporate management conglomerate.

Great question. Jeremy was driving one on TopGear's "The Perfect Road Trip 2" and more recently The Grand Tour episode five I think. He is absolutely bonkers over it.
