I daily'd 2 different Lotus Esprits for over 4 years. Not an issue. You do it if you want to. First was an 86 and the second my 94 S4. Total fun. Nice way to leave the office knowing you are climbing down and into something fun for a drive home. Made waking up and driving an event.

From having Italian bikes like Ducati and Aprilia, long as it's made Tuesday to Thursday it's fine. Monday and Friday a toss up. Brilliant design and execution with a soul but little things can add up and Italian parts supply chain can be ifffy. I would not rely on a 4C as a DD. For that get the Caymen.

Tested for 1.5 hours the 4C near my place in Germany. Get it and dont listen to those who says its not exotic. One look at the tub and you know it is. Mid engine, all aluminum decent HP and non power steering. Fantastic sound and oh fk yeah an exotic shape. A vette wishes it was that exotic. Please get it, drive it and enjoy it. Those who bad mouth it and not have driven it should basically say ZERO.

Great find DLSTR..that carbon tube is amazing. I would hate to get into an accident with this car..must be crazy expensive to get parts.

Hey, Jeremy Clarkson is in love with the 4C.

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.
