Local pricing and specifications confirmed for Alfa Romeo 4C Coupe sports car.

The Alfa Romeo 4C finally arrives locally in February, with the carbon fibre-bodied sports car priced from $89,000.

However, prospective buyers yet to place an order will be faced with a wait, as the initial allocation of 120 has already been accounted for.

For Australia, the all-new 4C will come in two variants - the 4C Coupe and a limited edition $109,000 4C Launch Edition. Only 75 units of the Launch Edition will be available in Australia.

The 4C's 177kW/350Nm 1.7-litre four-cylinder turbocharged engine sits ahead of the rear wheels, which are powered by a six-speed dual-clutch transmission.

An F1-style carbon fibre monocoque, aluminium chassis and composite bodywork combine work to help the 1,025kg 4C achieve a 4.5 second run from 0-100km/h.

Alfa Romeo's 'DNA selector' drive mode selector turns off the stability and traction control in 'Race' mode, and makes them less intrusive in 'Dynamic'. 'All-weather' and 'Natural' modes are for day-to-day driving.

Cabin features in the 4C were sparse when we first drove it in September 2013, with only a basic stero, air-conditioning and two airbags.

The Launch Edition adds race suspension tuning and exhaust, a carbon fibre spoiler, tweaked front fascia, LED headlights and staggered 18-inch front/19-inch rear matte black alloys.

Carbon fibre trim features inside the cabin along with sports seats and red or white accent stitching.

Matthew is a videographer at Carsguide, although he is known to occasionally commit words to the page as well. He spends a lot of his free time watching motorsport, which was great until his partner pointed out that perhaps he should also be spending time with their young daughter. Matt used to spend his days designing housing estates in a job he describes as "playing Sim City, but for real". However, after doing that for too many years, he became bored and decided a communications degree was something he should do (because journalists are successful and rich). Since starting at Carsguide he hasn't looked back. You can follow Matt on Twitter, if you dare.
