I have a Birkin S3 and live in Arizona. Can confirm my feet get quite toasty in the summer. No rain, lots of sunshine, but people drive like crazy.
In order of best value (my opinion) Honda S2000 CR, Toyota GR Supra, Audi TT RS, C8 Corvette, Nissan GTR, Audi R8 V8, Ferrari 360?
Engine swap K24 - turboed to give 350kw at the wheels
🎉
I feel like today this is a great value used car.
The question isn't why? Rather Why not?
Thats a very good point! We didn't you could make a ballistic missile any faster... we were wrong haha!
Best car ever made and they'll have to pry it from my cold, dead hands.
Well said!
Awesome vid …no one should own this as a daily driver. I absolutely love my 4C. Most fun on a weekend drive ever. Would never want to drive it into the office. I really love your review. Thanks for posting. Cheers
@@madisonmc glad you enjoyed the video! Appreciate you taking the time to leave the comment !
I know it’s been a while but the series 3 lotus is far better as in 2021 versions defo more torque in the last editions
Absolutely agree, pretty much a completely different car !
i have a 2015 spider 4c. love it!!!
Bravo!
930kg 😬.gonna be almost 1100kg with you two in . Elise is the proper lotus before they got ffat , 690kg - 750kg , start making it lighter ,try get 50kg off it and add 50hp . 👍🏻
Corrrrr, feel very seen with the estimates on weight 👀 🤣
@@NaturallyAspirated i'm a proud weightist + hightist 😂 being 50kg + 5ft7 i personally hold bigger people responsible for over built cars lol 🥸°°gawd dammn 6ft 100kg lads ruin everything! ...👍🏻
@@TheCraigy83 unfortunately we are all roughly around those figures, so please hold us accountable haha! You should see Olly getting in and out of the cars with his glass back.... serves him right 🤣
@@NaturallyAspirated glass back 😆 my m8's 6ft2'' 17st
I used my 2 Caterhams for 8 years as a daily. Then i had an Elise for 8 years as a daily. You don't think, i can't do that with this car, you think, how can i do that with this car.
Love to hear this!
One handleswell,the other one doesn't
I’m currently in the market for a “toy”. Torn between the V6 Exige and a 4C as they’re about the same money. Any thoughts?
Very different cars ! Would say the Exige is more extreme and the 4C more characterful, Italian and also cheaper to run!
Exige surely...
Exige S3 is streets ahead of 4C in performance terms; it’s a raw beast & is far more super car in performance. 4C is more A110 than Exige.
Did the issue reoccur anytime after doing this?
@@abrahamgonzalezdelgado1717 not to our knowledge !
What do you guys think about the gearbox?
@@pablouvedoble it was good, very short geared but made the car very fun and engaging to drive !
@NaturallyAspirated Thanks a lot! I was concern about the Suzuki drivetrain. Best!
"naturally aspirated" reviewing a supercharged Caterham Seven is a bit funny tbh :D
Glad we made you chuckle!
i admire the 4c for its looks, but when its about driving it has to be the exige.. if i want a sporty daily i would go for an a110
We REALLY want to get our hands on an A110! Would love to compare!
You guys should try the Alpine A110 R. Of the sports cars you have tested, read, there is no better car.
Would love to! If you know where we can get our hands on one let us know 👀 😂
@@NaturallyAspiratedto test against the 4C that is!
@@arjanvandenbrand2070 absolutely! we still want to get our hands on one!
2 Fantastic CARS 🥇 TK🇳🇴
We love them! Glad you do too!
The Guy getting in the Yaris was actually me getting in my VX220........
You should see him get in the 4C and the Exige... Like folding MDF
@@NaturallyAspirated 🤣
I’ve had many much more expensive sports cars than my 4C Spyder. But my little Alfa is an absolute EVENT every time I take him out and puts the smile on my face that the others couldn’t. ❤
Sounds like you love the 4C as much as we do!
spot-on!
This car is giving Tomorrow Never Dies Vibes!
Great video gents! Love both of these cars. As coincidence would have it, I also uploaded an Exige S2 video - if you wish to check it out. Anyways, hello from Scotland
Will make sure to check it out! Seems like it is Exige season! haha
Great video, new to your channel. I think this was put on my feed as I have literally just finished editing an Exige video myself.
We will make sure to check it out ! It seems like there is a lot of Exige action at the moment!
@@NaturallyAspirated cheers and there certainly is
Lotus for me, as its manual, Toyota power and less money. Good review thanks.
Agreed!!
Thanks for the comment! Glad you enjoyed it !
Drove both before buying an Alpine A110 which i felt was a better all round car than the Alfa, and the Lotus, the Alfa is stunningly beautiful, having owned a Lotus before, the unreliability and build quality put me off, despite assurances they no longer have quality issues.
Ooo! Would love to experience an A110 alongside these two as well to see how they line up!
Thank you, enjoyable video. I like the front end of the 4C, it's a lovely car, but the Lotus would be my choice.
Thanks for your comment, glad you liked the video!
Both awesome cars, i’ll take the Exige! Incredibly reliable and so easy to upgrade
Good to see you have good taste! Considering upgrades at the moment…
Toyota power giving the power and reliability!
@@NaturallyAspirated heck yes, my turbo Elise has been booster for over 10 years, 370whp on e85!
@@edduerden9257 absolutely, love my turbo Elise
@@Drifty325i Damn! Thats a madness!
Having done 100s of km in both, the Alfa beguiled with its Italian looks and instant torque but was skittish and unpredictable due to odd suspension kinematics combined with unpredictable boost. The Lotus is just a pure, sorted sportscar - no buts or exceptions, the car literally disappears around you when you drive it. Sorry Alfa.
Our 4c has had the suspension modifications to help solve some of the issues but it’s still a handful. Can’t imagine what they are like standard! Ed is loving his Exige! You can’t get more of a pure driving experience
@ Ours had all the suspension mods too. Some improvement but replaced with Exige that’s just a class act. Never looked back.
Did you replace with an s2 or s3 out of interest? I think an s3 might tempt me out of the 4c!
@@NaturallyAspirated Replaced with late S2 240 S. Sadly we didn’t get the S3 this far south in Africa ;)
@@nadavravid1242 did you do any modifications to your Exige?
Great to see this video! I own a 4Cand I like very much to see owners of these car enthusiasts of owning them, use them ,love their defects and enjoy! ❤
We couldn’t agree more!!
Bringing a cayman into the discussion near the end was interesting. Would like to know how an A110 compares to these
Take all 4 to the track please! 🙏
We would love to get our hands on all 4 at the same time!
I’m biased for the 4C but still love the Lotus as owned Lotus in the past also. Great stuff.
Thanks Andy! Can't help your biases 🤣
That exige under load sounds goooooood
Exige or 4C?! Let us know below!
Don't make us choose!
Exige.
do you want a peak sports car driving experience, or do you want an Alfa driving experience? That’s the question being asked.
4C
The sound of that Exige 🥰 I do miss my old one!
Great looking car! Congrats! 😊👍🏻 Enjoy the heck out of it!
Can't wait to compare them on track next!
Reving it out from cold 🙄 Great bit of road for testing the Elise 😀
In mine I have the carplay USB port in my 2016 l405
As long as you have “wired” CarPlay it should work !
Does this work with 2016 l405
Watching the channel in the car - what's not to like!?
Can't lie, handy bit of tech that! Hopefully it helps others as well!
Good bit of tech!
no way this is stock exhaust? did you take the cats or mufflers out
Completely stock! The start up was exceptionally loud as was a fairly cold start and it resonated massively off the walls of the garage. Sounded good though! 🤣 Hope you enjoyed it!
I have had mine for 8 years and as mentioned in the video use Alfaworks. Get and remap and maybe a bigger turbo then the car goes really well!! The car is not a daily but if you pack well with hooks on the back seat for suit / clothes holder then a European trip is not out of the question. We have been to Italy and Croatia in the car and the attention it gets is always positive.
What about 0-100 and top speed?
0-62mph - 4.7 seconds Limited top speed 174mph
@@NaturallyAspirated I always wonder if their acceleration might be improved with 2024 spec rubber, it's a real battle with traction off the line.
@@davidedney2323 Yea more than likely ! The owner of this one always has very tasty rubber on his car!
@@NaturallyAspirated I'm using ContiSportContact7s on my XKR and Michelin PS4S on my XJ Supersport. It still comically easy to do massive slides everywhere 😀
Naturally aspirated? That cars blown?
Yep! Just a channel name…
The P-Zeros designed for the car are truly terrible, especially in the wet. Don't mod it in any way. (4C owner since new, in 2015)
Awesome that you’ve owned from new! What tyres are you currently running out of interest?
@@NaturallyAspirated Goodyear Asymmetric 6. They aren't so outright grippy, but are very progressive. As a motorcyclist that's important to me. Plus they are head and shoulders better in the wet. I have nearly span 3 times on wet roads. Once in France, where I was total passenger heading for the big ditch on an "N" road. Luckily the lip curb saved me.
@@NaturallyAspirated BTW, they stop the scrambling for grip, and tramlining. I do have KW coil over suspension all round.
I have to agree about the p zeros being useless in the wet after a very rainy track day.! I find in the dry they are quite grippy when warm and the road is smooth enough. I think I’ll go Michelin when it’s time to replace. How do you find the coilovers?
@@NaturallyAspirated The coil overs are very good. But I always thought the standard suspension was quite competent. I am not a track day person. Every time I have motor raced, I have been (very unfairly) black flagged, as I believe in the Senna saying, "if you stop going for the gap, you're no longer a racing driver". And the footage of the Nuremberg ring scares the s*** out of me. Driving ability isn't as high as one would hope! The Asymmetric 6's are truly excellent tyres. The never ending search for grip can be counter productive.
But the Giulia QV is Not naturally aspirated!
Nope! Just the name of the channel! 🤣
