Fiat abarth - finally got her

ab · January 18, 2013, 06:49:28 PM

Well I am finally a Fiat abarth 2012 owner (well the bank owns 75% of her)

Practically new with 2800miles. Black colour and no extra options.

This car brings nothing but a grin on my face. It's just a little beast growling with every shift change. It's just a wonderful little beast. I have been eyeing it since its introduction in US but I also love the Fiat family having grown up with my parents owning a fiat 600 and 127 back in late 70's and early 80's when I was a kid.

And i generally hate driving and am not a car nut at all. This being the first almost new and decent car i have ever gotten, its just awesome! I realize she is over-priced really but i had to finally go for it. Glad I didn't compromise and get the T or standard.

:-)

very nice !!

crazy why they would put the stickers on the hood

Tinting the windows would look great

Cool car.

...can't believe no one's called him out on his song choice yet!

I thought it, but didn't want to ruin an otherwise nice post

Looks like fun

I had a 600 in 1970 - I think it coasted faster than the engine would take it....

Yours', not so much

If I had an ounce of mechanical talent, I would love to have 70's 600 (sei chento) and restore it. Yellow colour.

But I am glad for this Abarth. I am babying her and not using her in snow etc. :-)

I believe I recognize the car from pictures on one of the Fiat 500 forums I'm a member of.
I can't find the pics, but if I do, I will let you know so that you can look up any posts they made about their car.

BC.
