My new toy.........
Hello friends.
Here is my new ABARTH 500, a very GT3 RS look mini supercar with turbo!
And to honour the moment, last night I finish the new forum I made especially for the FIAT 500 and 500 ABARTH www.500fans.com
It will be great if you take a visit on my new forum, see more photos of my new toy and leave a feedback my friends!
More photos on my 500 ABARTH Foto Album

Lefteris

Damn you Lefti. I kid, I was waiting until this hit our shores so that I could look into picking one up. I loved it from its first release and was hoping that Fiat was going to bring them here. Last I heard was that they were thinking about bringing like 500 of them only which would mean huge dealer markups.
Damn it, why is it that we never get the cool little toys.
Also, for anyone that doesn't know, this is actually a really fun car. it is not meant to go head to head with a Porsche or be a 500HP monster so don't think that it is useless. From everything that I have read, this car is supposed to drive so much like a sports car that you wont worry about it not having 500 HP. Kind of like what the Mini did.

Nice! She looks like it will be a blast to drive around town.
Too bad they made the new one front engined. I always did love the little old Abarths with the classic "bonnet up" style of the old racing Abarths.

Very nice video Lefti. Just as I thought, it is definitely a fun car. I love the description Jeremy used about how it was so much like an original VW GTi.

Is it sort of like the Mini Cooper S?
How does it stack up?
