2015-2016 New Cards List For You (Part 2)
Alfa Romeo 4C
Base price: $55,195-$69,695

All-new After what seems like a lifetime, Alfa Romeo
is finally making its return to the U.S. with the 4C. The first 500 to arrive

ingredients that make for a fun sportster, including a carbon-fiber tub and
aluminum-intensive chassis that make it super light and agile.
Avoid Hoping too much for a stick- manual shifting
would slow the car down a bunch.
