This cinematography is better than any other car vlogs channel
Do you think they should make a Alfa Romeo 4C Quadrifoglio with the 2.9 V6?
I thought the exact same thing when I first saw the Giulia QF. Would that engine even fit in the 4C?
Gavin Keaty then it would be a 6c
Thats way to much power for a 950 kg car. More realistically they could give it the 2,0 liter turbo petrol from the Giulia to replace this older 1,75 liter.
fundiver198 they can down tune the engine. Lotus made the Exige V6 with the Elise as a basis. Alfa can make a performance version of the 4C like the Exige
Lars Heuchemer it's my dream to do that. Take an Alfa 4C Spider.
Get the latest Pagani Carbon Fibre bodywork (replace the crap CFRP with the REAL lightweight stuff)
Create a carbon Targa hardtop for it (spider is a shitty soft top)
Replace all bolts and struts with titanium / carbon ones just like the Huayra for extra lightness.
Engine: Giulia/Ferrari F154 2.9V6T with Koenigsegg FreeValve and FlexFuel E85 Ethanol ECU. Will make 650-700bhp or more because of their excellent technologies. Engine mounted Longitudinally unlike the current 4C transverse layout
Gearbox: ZF8HP Gen 2 or whatever the best is by then. Steering wheel will stay the same style as the 4C but adopt Giulia flappy paddles. Gauge Cluster will be changed from Digital back to Giulia Style
And there you go! The baby LaFerrari. Yes it will cost shitloads of money but it will be beautiful, special and visceral. Imagine a car about 800kg with 700bhp. That's more power to weight than a LaFerrari!
(How I got to 800kg was take the 4C Kerb of 895kg remove weight for FreeValve, Pagani Carbon and Titanium Chassis, Sound deadening and useless crap like the radio, and add the little bit of extra weight for the slightly bigger gearbox and engine - this is just an estimate!)

Your new camera man is really good! Quality is even better now ;)
IZzelYy I thought some of the shots where the camera moved from the buildings down to the car were a bit OTT though tbh
I like that, it's different than usual. A bit closer to what we get in professionnal car shows.
Matt Mellor - I thought they were alright other than maybe not getting the timing of the pan/tilt correct to get the car in shot at the right moment a couple of times.
It's really nice to see again the 4c... I miss this little Alfa
Content keeps getting better and the different camera angles really makes this channel even more unique.
Glad to see the 4C coming along. Such a pretty car.
Alfa need to make a 12C
Should be a beast of a car if they do make it
They should make a 57C
ThatCarGuy They made a car like that called the 8C.
CinemaUnited they need to rerelease the 8C. it was beautiful.
They should make a 1C so I can afford it
Can tell youre such a genuine car enthusiast, first the 4c, then the abarth biposto - such characteristic cars that show you have some real authentic taste as opposed to others who just like lamborghini aventadors
Exactly
Fix is what Germans do and strip character. The 4c is so responsive, fun, and refined just enough. Magnifico!
Except it has a strut rear suspension and no manual. The car is a complete and utter failure and the sales show this.
Anthony oh yes, a failure because you dismiss out of hand. Struts are bad but manuals are great. Technology is confusing huh? Clearly you have never driven one.
S Schroeder huh? I’m saying the car isn’t as successful as it could have been, mainly because it doesn’t have a manual. The struts certainly don’t help. Carbon tub but not double wishbones all around? Seems like an odd corner to cut after spending money on the carbon tub. You’re the one who’s confused here
I drove a 2015 model 4C last week and didn't experience any steering issues, which I was surprised after reading many reviews. It doesn't have the feel of a Lotus (nothing does!) but still has more feel than 95% of other cars. It's a shame they didn't make these changes before the journalists got their hands on it.
Your visuals are always on point Sam
The quality of your videos is one of the best amongst the car youtubers, and improving!
Have had my 4C LE coupe for a year. The suspension alignment on mine was already realigned before I picked it up at my request. No issues at all. love the car and it impresses every time I drive it. Handles fine. Some people put in some spacers known as Jamies Blocks and swear by them. I know several fellow 4C owners and we track them and they are bullet proof for that.
As far as manual vs. DC....there is a reason why all the exotic car companies are going with paddle shifts. Faster and just as much control as a manual...many companies report that it is very hard to sell manuals and are taking them out of their option list.. Once you drive a DC auto and learn how to use it you won't see much reason to go back to a manual....and I drove one for years both in previous sports cars and SCCA race cars. I look at it like hand cranking your car years ago. When it became dinosaur engineering and was replaced by electric starters I don't think too many people wanted to go back to cranking their cars. When F1 cars, Ferrari, BMW, Lambo, Porsche, etc, use them it is pretty obvious they have an advantage.
Hi, I test drove a 4C last week and the steering was absolutely fine. I really liked it and have decided to buy one later this year. Does Jamie's blocks improve the feedback even further? I see he also offers a 280 bhp remap. Any experience of that?
Three years after this video was posted: I drove a 4C coupe last weekend. It was epic! Dynamic mode was brutal though so I think it was an earlier car. Now I want to drive a spyder!
Holy crap, you've stepped up your UA-cam game once again! Great quality content, mate. Best on UA-cam.
Amazing B-roll Sam. Quality is epic!
I literally lost my mind when I heard "Tuesday" Tennyson and Mr. Carmack are amazing!
If this had a manual gearbox I definitely would have bought one.
Bizarrely, that would have made it more heavy, and the double clutch actually is pretty good. It really feels like an F1 car, obviously of old. Current F1 cars are more like lorries than cars.
That red is such a cool colour. You should consider re wrapping your 540C in red... it would look ace.
He said in another Video that he actually will wrap it in Volcano Red soon.
Red in colour for Italian supercar...sorry but only an Italian car can be beatiful in red...joke
seeing this video is tempting me to go back and look at your older videos.
Dude. Sam, you are the freaking man. I find myself giving your videos a thumbs up just for the amazing intros.
Video by video i'm blown away by the effort and talenf to put in your videos ... One day you'll be on the top and that is getting sooner and sooner
Loving the aerial photography! Look forward to more
Seb Wale lol thanks seb
Thanks for not being a drone and saying DRONE shots. People are so stupid they would call shots from a normall helicopter drone shots. Dislike that upsets with the word drum. You literally watched videos where people will say the word drone 2000 times while talking about there Maverick or whatever are the quadcopter they have
Love the 4c one of my dream cars! The abarth will definitely do for now! Especially as I'm weeks away from upgrading the turbo on it 😁😁😁
Don't you have a 4C now? I adore mine!
Holy crap. Production value just keeps going up! Well done.
Anywhere else in the world I wouldn't even think about driving a 4c but it just looks so good driving through the narrow streets of Italy
Not a fan of the 4C, I am a fan of the filmmaking goodness in this video though !! Seen Through Glass has leveled up, shout out to the new camera man !!
I think the spider eye lights would make sense on the 4C Spyder
Just bought mine as production is over and few new ones are left, gonna be a classic, mine will have patina
Does this mean you have hired your sidekick? Because this camera work is amazing
I always enjoy the way of editing in your videos! Paul Wallace could learn a lot just by watching this..
Appreciate the great cinematography. Alejandro and Wallace need to learn from you and James.
Gosh that car is just so pretty! :O
- I would probably prefer the "glass" headlights over the masked ones.
The third person view is Amazing.
How about selling the Abarth and putting some money on top to buy the Alfa Romeo Giulia Quadrifoglio? That would be perfect to take on long trips and a great car to modify!
You always have the best music man
Wheels and colour of that 4c are PERFECT.
Outrageously good editing! By far on the top list on daily Vlog:s on youtube!
Ahhhhh I saw you! I was riding my bike through the hills training for an incoming race and then the 4C just appeared.....I even yelled something like "open the gas mannnnnnn!!!" Obviously in Italian :D
Cameraman is doing well. Nice angles!
Sam most definitely got a video-grapher.
the 4C needs the new 2.0T at around 300hp.. and offer a manual.. then it'd be a real contender in my books
In one, the answer is "weight"!
Best UA-camr. Enough said.
The music on this vid is chill
Wow, really quiet without the sports exhaust.
Really liked the video. Feels a little more serious than the other ones
The absolute DREAM CAR!
The quality, the different cameras, the information... the whole video was excellent!! but please, let us hear the engine on these twisty roads!!! :D
Brilliantly edited Sam
The music at 5:30 has made me want a cup of earl grey.
STG should have kept the 4C, quite an interesting car. Would have 2X the subscribers by now . . .
Can't wait for the 6C with the 2.9 litre V6 from the Giulia Quadrifoglio.
Ha ha that roof brings back fond memories of my old Series 1 Lotus Elise.... A right ball ache getting that roof on and off lol
Love your vids man, keep up the good work!
Is that a Subaru Crosstrek police car in the background? Wow, that is really interesting if so!
Nice review Sam. I loved the 4C so much I bought one. So much fun.
hmmm....I still love the old one just as good I think! good stuff!
You have the comfiest car vids on UA-cam. love you channel.
Sam. If you fancy a drive in a 2015 Coupe, with KW coil overs, but apart from that "standard", then give me a shout. I am near London. You could video it? That would be cool.
I am waiting for the release of next generation 4c and hope alfa romeo will put what they got right in giulia into it.
Bro. These shots... 😯👌🏼
Reminded me of the days when you drove around in your 4C
I'm with you.....car is called a spider, the "spider" headlights fit it more than they did the coupe
4C, did hit that thumb up button before watching the video 😎 I knew I was going to enjoy the video
Watch out for a less nimble 4C at Modball this summer...
Hello Seen Through Glass, welcome to one and all
Great videography. Italy is so beautiful !!
"Wrong side if the car". Makes me lol
I love Sams content
nice editing as always son!
I hate your channel I always end up watching your clips instead of revising... Keep up the good work!
saw you in KB today! posting on IG now
"the unpredictably of it," how supremely Italian haha
This place is like one of those photoshoot places in gt5 :O
holy film production
O My God!! you have been driving on the wrong side of the road!!! In Italy you must drive on the Right side :)
Great video as usual Sam keep it up!
brilliant editing Sam:-)
Hello from Spain. I saw you yesterday on London with your Mclaren.
the police stop you because of speed limits jajaja
i ordered the car late and got the tan seats instead of the black seats. Still waiting for delivery but can't seem to find any videos of one with tan interior.
Having only ever sat in each one the Alfa Spider is nicer than the coupe as it's more airy and you can see out better but the fact that the the top takes up the entire trunk and AFAIK there's no frunk... Car's got to be somewhat practical.
Been watching for four minutes and no car test--just a Limey yaking away.......get with it already.
Most normal I've heard you say "seen through glass" instead of "glauuuss"
You still are THE Casey Neistat of the car comunity! Love it!
alfa romeo should make a 12 c with a v10 engine with about 600 hp or a bit more with 1000 or 1100 kg of weight and all wheel drive ... man that would be absolutely awesome alfa is one of my favourite cars
This thing would sell like hot cakes if it had an open gated manual. I don't get why they didn't even at least offer it as an option.
Sam, fantastic video love your work!!! :)
Nice omega speed master.
Nice speedy!
Sell the abarth
Invest some more money and get the 4c as a 'daily'
carlcepillo01 the lawnmower beater
Aston Martin I would but the Alfa is way too hard to drive on a daily basis
I own a 4c... if you drove it daily you would go MAD... Its a great drivers car, but not ideal for daily driving.
Aston Martin lmao no
Aston Martin already did that.
the biggest problem with this car is the lack of a manual gearbox
With the corvette being better made, slightly cheaper, and faster. It's kind of in a tough spot in the US. Not a lot of Alfa lovers here. Most don't even know it exist.
This and the red 540c DO IT SAM
So the steering was even more chaotic than that ? I drove the nearly exact same car (reg : EZ-235-DC) from FCA Italy on some Alpine pass. Still found the steering wasn't good for driver's confidence
Would you ever consider getting a second car along the 540c and the abarth like a 4c or a lotus or something sporty and special?
Bloody loved your 4C!
*Has😂
Great video
I hate the number plate on the paintwork, I've ordered a tow hitch one and took mine off the front, had to spend ages getting double sided tape off the rosso comp paint , grr
Correct tyre pressure solves it. Awesome car.
