Like Alfas? Ecstatic about maybe owning the only italian sportscar under 6 figures? Are you over 5.5 feet tall? Well too bad. You can’t fit in here, so it’s not happening. Sorry.

Kinja'd!!!

I’ve been inside smart cars. I’ve been inside 500s. I’ve been inside the new Miata. I’ve even been on those shitty crampt bus benches that have no leg room. And you know what? Every single one of those other options has more interior space for humans in it than the 4C. I don’t think human legs were meant to fold that way, but you can’t operate the car with the doors all open. Sacrifices had to be made.

Kinja'd!!!

Now I know why FCA hires shorter models to show people the car; it’s made for them, not you. If you want an italian sportscar that won’t break you and your passenger’s legs, you’re going to have to keep at it with those lotto tickets.

Well, to be fair, I think those jump seats in the back of the Model S were intended for the wee ones, otherwise that would be an extremely cramped fit.

I’m 6’ and somewhat large, and I managed to fit in the back of one.

Alfa logic: Is it going to break down all the time? No? Well, it needs some other crazily endearing inconvenience then.

Huh.

I know a bunch of people (myself included) that are 6’2-6’3 that can’t get in the back without slouching, even with the pano roof. Those few inches must make a difference.

It’s part of their thorough and extensive weight loss programme.

If you're over 5'5" then you're too heavy to be a part of the car...

Thankfully, I am 5’5, and the tallest I’m supposed to be is 5’8, so his means I have a chance.

And I'm OK with that.

I’m 6’1 and I fit in the driver seat. Not much room left in any dimension but it’s fine.

The passenger seat is the problem. If you have any more than stubs for legs, your knees will bang into the A/C control panel. The passenger side dashboard will also be uncomfortably close to you.
