OMG.. u bought a fiat! i'm so jelious!

It's... ummmmmmmm... small. :nod: :lol:

Get ready to hear this question a kajillion times: "How many MPGs do you get?". :nod: :nod: :nod:

Let the mods begin...:lol::grin:

Judging by the van in the background of one picture you live in North America, so how did you get that? I assume it's an evaluation car?

edit: Please post interior pics.

Hah hmm..........Looks like Luigi from the movie "Cars" :lol: Very cool :thumbsup:

BMW, Fiat may join forces on next Mini, 500, U.S. Alfa sales

(there coming,,, well, there are here... but yes, u can get them state side...)

Judging by Msfitoy in front of the 500, you would be right!:lol:

I won't tease anymore...it is probably the only 500 in the country right now...just got registered by our studio and I have it for a while to play with...:grin::cool:

Dude thats a cool car! I LOVE to see 100% Euro cars. My parents went to England and other places and I just loved the car pictures they took for me. Closest thing to a "non american" vehicle around me are some cars and trucks from Mexico.

u r one lucky ****....:eek2: :grin: i wan one too:lol:

bet it get lot of attention...

Know a guy named Tony to keep it running?

pretty cool, sid! :thumbsup:

That's awesome! How do you like the way it drives???? We need some scoopage...:nod:

I know LOTS of us "cough cough" older people may have owned a Fiat (Me) and I loved them. My first Cabrio was a 124 Spyder.....yellow.....I'd love to hear the run down on this one...:thumbsup:

Donna:cool::grin::cool:

Maybe I'm blind but to me it's hideous. Gotta love the exclusivity of 1 though! Put one of Fiat's big sibling's Alfa in your driveway and I'll be a jealous boy!

FIAT.....

F***ing Attempted Italian Transportation.

I know of what I speak. My first car was a '69 850 Spider with all of the FAZA/Abarth goodies. (Shivers with the memories...)

Jim

It's a bit "soft" for me...shifts very silky through a nice 6 box, very nice interior trim, more upright seating position...but, it's no Mini...wallows through steering inputs, motor is so quite, I have to keep an eye on the tach to make sure I upshift...not enough power to get out of it's own way...would make a nice cafe cruiser... :lol:

I wouldn't call it ugly, but it's definitely a unique look.

Have fun! Thanks for the great pics.

Looks like a big engine hood gap on the passenger side near the base of the windshield.

this is the fiat 500 abarth i wan

hey, that car reminds me of an onigiri. (rice ball with seaweed).

Car looks great...congrats. It may not be a spry as a MINI but it would still be a very fun car to own. :thumbsup:

its missing the seaweed though... looks more like a mochi...

kyriian- well, the seaweed is on the top of the car on the fiat...
that black glass roof. :grin:


jokes aside, that's a cool looking car. watever happened to the
Z06?

How'd you manage to be one of the lucky few to evaluate one of those here in the US??

The headlights look MINI-eque to me. Looks like an aerodynamic engineer had their way with the MINI and then baked it in a huge oven and melted it further.
