The amazing Alfa Romeo 4C wows with a record breaking 8:04 lap time at Nurburgring

Alfa 4C on Nurburgring
And, no, the duct tape on the body gaps doesn't come standard. That's an Italian performance upgrade you'll pay dearly for.
Alfa’s miniature supercar – the 4C – is already setting records. This time it managed a 8:04 lap of the dreaded Nurburgring, which is the fastest ever time for a car with less than 250 horsepower.

At just 240 fiery Italian horsepower from its turbocharged 1.75-liter four-cylinder engine, this Alfa is a very different Italian take on the sports car than most of its competition.................

And when you see this car’s performance figures you know that it floats like a butterfly and stings like a bee. The 4C will scream from 0-62 mph in 4.5 seconds, pull 1.1 lateral g, and brake hard enough to pop your eyeballs out.
