Eric and Michael completed more than 2,200 miles and in the process, they learned a few things:
1. Cloth tops are best for short journeys.
2. They share a love of softback notebooks, deer-skin gloves and mid-century modern architecture.
3. The Alfa Romeo 4C is a fantastic little car made for carving up the back roads but equally at home driving full tilt for hours a day.
Ultimately, the guys give a tremendously positive review of the car. More positive than they ever thought they would be. Now go find it and win.
The Hunt is on.
Here’s the story: We’re going on an epic road trip in the new Alfa Romeo 4C. And when we’re done, we’re going to leave the car somewhere between Los Angeles and New York. We’ll post clues, hints and tips for all to see in the Hot Laps newsletter, the review videos and in social media: Facebook, Twitter and Instagram.
This is a contest, a game of skill. The skill here is working the clues, getting up off the couch and going out on the road yourself to find the car. The first person to find the Alfa Romeo 4C and prove it by crossing the prize claim line, tweeting a photo of themselves with the Alfa, with the hashtag #huntfor4c and #contest, and meeting all requirements, as stated in the official rules, will win the contest.
What do you win? A pre-paid 2-year lease on an Alfa Romeo 4C, tax and title included, an almost $40,000 value. And if you win the contest and you don’t want the car, you’ll have the option of an alternate cash prize instead.
That’s how it works in plain English. A full set of entry details and official rules is available here.
