For R870 000, this ‘affordable supercar’ Alfa Romeo 4C can be
yours. Fully imported from the Maserati factory in Italy, the mid-engined 4C can
be ordered from seven dedicated dealerships in SA and Namibia, including
Umhlanga. The price includes a three-year or 100 000 km warranty and maintenance
plan. Alfa said its TCT 6-speed gearbox with a dual dry clutch combines the
instant power of a sequential shift with all the convenience of an automatic,
enabling a zero to 100 km/h run in less than five seconds. Only 30 models of the
4C will be imported to South Africa a year, and the first shipment is already
sold out. Dealer principal at Fiat and Alfa Romeo in Umhlanga, Naseem Moosa,
said this batch is only expected from October, and any Alfisti who also wants to
own one of these already collectable supercars will have to express their
interest early.
