Porsche Cayman Audi TT RS, Lotus Elise, Alfa 4C and Alpine A 110.
The best four contenders of the kind. With some very similar performances. I have a biased preference, as an owner of the Alpine A110. But I long time hesitated between the Cayman and the 4C, I must confess. What would be your preference? Best, Nicolas ...
A tough decision
My heart is with Alfa and Alpine. Had the Alpine been available with a manual transmission it may have been the choice for me. The Lotus is great fun but too hardcore if you need to get a passenger in and out frequently such as a child or your partner. I ...
They’re all beautiful, but….
I made my choice a couple years ago and haven’t once regretted it. ...
Based in looks alone,
the Alfa for me! Unfortunately with a newly built house and a toddler an old Volvo Station Wagon is the more sensible choice at the moment... 😅
It's nice to be crazy over something other than watch 😁🫣
Perhaps once or twice in our life time.
I fully understand
What was the main reason behind your decision in favor of the Alpine?
Impossible to beat that!
I just did the maintenance of my wife's Mini and it was almost double that cost 😬
The Alpine blue is a color i like very much on cars.
A 4C, that to much Alfa Romeo. I like Alfa Romeo, but more the squared sedans like the Alfetta and 75.
The best sport car.
In my opinion the Porsche 911 is the best. Sure, you have more expensive sports cars, cheaper ones… The best passenger car? The Toyota Camry. The most beautiful? Ford 32. But that is how i see it. The Alfa Romeo Montreal, also very nice.
A stupid question
Do you know Chris Harris the car journalist? oh, i made a mistake. I think it is Top Gear that tested an Alpine A110. And a pre production i guess. It is no British car as Alpine is French, so that is maybe why they were so nasty about the Alpine. Ones i ...
Alpine and Alfa.
Only those two are double wishbone suspension. And I don't know if either of them are dry sump! A requirement if I'm going to be driving windy mountain roads.
So hard to say...
Here in USA, only the Alfa has ever been sold. And I have yet to drive the Alpine and the Alfa. On paper, the Alfa sounds like the cooler car with the carbon fiber tub. But the way Gordon Murray talks about how much he enjoys driving the Alpine and that t...
Porsche lovers are an irrational breed!
I was once thinking Porsches could do no wrong. I was a fan. Today, I realize I was a fan boy and that I was wrong in many ways! But! Porsche is making double-wishbone front suspension sports cars now. So, soon, I will be back in love with Porsches!
My True Sports Car Requirements...
1. Double wishbone suspension. Generally no exception to this rule, unless it's a multi-link suspension that is arranged in a method that is similar to a double wishbone. Porsche 2 door models, BMW M3, and many "popular" sports cars are all "McPherson Str...
Oui! Some of my friends say I complain more than the French!
An Alpine would be a wonderful car for me though... Can't wait to drive one. That might be the closest to perfect car in many areas. Another car that meets all of the requirements except the weight requirement is the Corvette - and that's actually somewha...
no, it is a 2013 LE
the very first that were delivered in central Europe. only about 80 made in matt white and with the initial race setup that never made it to any other markets. A year after delivery they reworked the setup with all cars as it was too rude for legal roads,...
Absolutely awesome.
I would love to experience what that original setup feels like to drive. I have one of the 2015 numbered editions for the U.S. market. Such spectacular little cars.
Guess I’ll be the only one choosing TT RS.
Sat in my friend’s 2018 TT RS a couple of months ago. It was a nice and thoroughly enjoyable car.
Superbiased.
I do love the 4C more for it’s design … but the A110 is just such a dream to drive …. . A110 all the way offcourse 😅 ...
Surprisingly, I vote for the Porsche
Have 2 Lotuses now which is more than the number of Lotus dealers within 100 miles. I’m at the point where I don’t want to spend my time chasing parts and working on it myself
