The supercar 8C got canned as well...
The 4C coupe also got canned cause it wasn't selling very well...
To be honest if the 4C had a 6 speed manual I would have bought one and so would many other people I know...they had a sports car focus vision 6-7 years ago but the execution of their stupid management stuffed up everything.
Now they are turning their back on sports car and onto SUVs and perhaps EVs...boring
I will never buy any car from them going forward...their track record shows they are unable to commit to making exciting sports car which really was their true heritage.
