Porsche Cayman Audi TT RS, Lotus Elise, Alfa 4C and Alpine A 110.
The best four contenders of the kind. With some very similar performances.
I have a biased preference, as an owner of the Alpine A110. But I long time hesitated between the Cayman and the 4C, I must confess.
What would be your preference?
Best,

A tough decision
My heart is with Alfa and Alpine. Had the Alpine been available with a manual transmission it may have been the choice for me. The Lotus is great fun but too hardcore if you need to get a passenger in and out frequently such as a child or your partner. I did agonize quite a bit about the evora. The 5 pot in the audi is a peach, sounds almost as good as the v10 alas they stopped offering stick a long time ago. The r8 v10 spyder with stick shift is one of my all time favorites, carreraGT thrills for a fraction of the price. So that leaves the relatively porkier flat6, offered both as a coupe or convertible, pdk or stick shift, in a varied range of trims from base to GT product. Not on your list but as an open air drop-top aficionado I would take a boxster, new or used, with the flat6.
The R8 and the Carrera GT are boxing in another category, my friend. The Boxster with a 6 Cylinders is a good one, or even better, the Cayman GT4, RS or not.
They’re all beautiful, but….
I made my choice a couple years ago and haven’t once regretted it.
Based in looks alone,
the Alfa for me! Unfortunately with a newly built house and a toddler an old Volvo Station Wagon is the more sensible choice at the moment... 😅
Yes, I totally agree, but in terms of price, there is a huge difference. A difference which is more than the double, with taxes...
It's nice to be crazy over something other than watch 😁🫣
Perhaps once or twice in our life time.
Of course, my philosophy as well. But what would you choose, an hyper prepared Alpine A110 for 90 K Euros, or a GT4 RS at 180 K Euros?
