Yes, the Alfa 4C ranks up there as the best pure sports (semi-exotic) car under $200k new. Will say my Viper GTS is probably the most undervalued car on the market today. Sure it has doubled over the past few years (surging even more than most fun cars) but just touching six figures is a bargain for a car that has only a couple thousand produced and is as iconic (or more iconic) than 993 turbos.
Along with my 992 GTS, I have a 2010 Corvette ZR1 I've owned since new, a 2022 Subaru BRZ six-speed manual, and a 2022 CT5-V Blackwing six-speed. They are all awesome cars to complement the 992.
SWEET. I've been looking at them lately. What years do you think are the best in terms of value, performance, affordability in terms of longevity and reliability?
Any known issues with specific years? Years to avoid? Thanks in advance.
Any good sources of information as I begin my search?
@AdamIsAdam Think it comes down to if you want a Roadster, Vert, or Couple. All generations have shown to be pretty reliable. Off the the top of my head, early Gen1's had paper head gaskets that some say should be replaced, if not already done.
There are a lot of buyers guides on the internet that will let you know the basics of buying one. As mentioned above, these cars a still relatively undervalued. Hell, the total Viper production for all years was around 30K units. Main issue is finding some parts for them. If your interested in one, buy the best one you can find!
Nice Launch Edition Alfa 4C. I loved mine in MP White. I just didn't drive it enough, so I sold it when the Targa 4 arrived. The best pure sports car out there south of 200k.
I owned a black coupe. It sounds great and is fun around town but it isn’t very good on the interstate. If I had garage space it would look nice next to my 911.
