What did you do with your 4C today?

Did you drive it? How far and to where?
Did you wash and wax it?
Did (GOD forbid) park it in the garage and ignore it?
Did you do service work or some modification?

Me? What I did to my 4C today was to be active on this forum and live vicariously through others while dreams of the day (year?) I can order my 4C filled my head and clouded my vision.

Lars you maniac; do be careful! The 4C doesn’t quite have the lock to lock for this type of arrangement.

I know I for one would be in the midst of grabbing a second part-rotation of countersteer, only to put my hand straight through the wheel. I get chills just thinking about that scenario

Well, good news is that most of the time it’ll be just fine!

Seriously it looks awesome but def watch out.

I think the banana would fit perfectly to replace the missing part of the steering wheel.

Unfortunately not. BUT if we'll wait for a week or so it'll turn color to similar as carbon fiber 🖤

More importantly, will you be able to get it in yellow carbon?

Finally replaced my 8yr old pzeros today. Got some firehawk indy 500s on sale, had them road force balanced, and holy cow what a difference. Everything feels way better. So glad I went for it even though my stock tires only had 8k miles on them.

Just wait until you replace these Firestones with some REAL tires!
:D
I bought a set of Indy 500s and took them off the rims in disgust a few hundred miles later. Very unimpressed.

Haha I was mainly looking for something decently priced and just better than my old crap. I have a big road trip coming up and didnt feel confident in the pzeros, they had some nasty vibration at highway speeds despite being recently balanced.

In a month or so my group buy Teklas will be here and those will get something a bit more special. And my stock wheels with these 500s will just be backup and used if I ever track it. :)

GMS Rear Control Arms (Sport) installed today.
Alignment booked for 1st June….it’s going to be a long wait. With AW Race Blocks also recently installed, I’m itching to take the car for a hoon…😁

Thanks to Rudi @GMS for the great support, fast delivery and extremely high quality parts:

The rest of this year budget will be spent on track time…and maybe pads and tyres 😁

I’ve been getting to stare at pictures of my newly bought 4C, as I’m still overseas working (my dad went to go check it out (as the wife is not too car savvy). He loved it so I transferred the money over and just gotta wait 2.5 more weeks 😢.
