The Alfa Romeo 4C Concept was the talk of the town at the 2011 Geneva Auto Show. The Italian speedster looks similar to its cousins, Ferrari and Maserati, but is smaller in size with a frame that is less than eight feet long. The Alfa Romeo 4C Concept is super light. Made out of carbon fiber and aluminum, the car weighs in at less than 850 kilograms. Even though the car is just a concept, there are talks of putting it into production and bringing the supercar to the North American market.
The Alfa Romeo 4C Concept's 1750 cc engine offers over 200 HP and can go from 0 to 100 km/h in under five seconds! The red paint looks killer with the chrome wheels and black accents. You would definitely look fly in a summer car like this!
