Most Fun Car I Have EVER Driven

This car is a blast to drive, has had almost no problems, is easy to park and has everything you need at your fingertips. In the summer I consistently get combined city/hwy 40mpg+, winter is closer to 38. The car is a 5 speed manual and is as much of a thrill now to drive as the day I drove it off the lot new. I would buy another one hands down with no hesitation.

Very fun to drive!

This car is a blast to drive! I highly recommend buying one with a manual transmission. It is a very easy first stick shift car to learn with. The abarth version is very stiff do Midwestern roads aren't the most fun but I feel with it anyways.

Great value for the money

I bought this car used with very low mileage and it?s been great as my commuter car for 120+ miles, 4xs a week. Comfy driver side seat. VERY easy to park and maneuver. Not lots of power but that?s to be expected as this is not a sports car.

My cousin's car and it's awesome

It's cool looking, runs very well and drives in automatic or manual which is the 1st car I've ever drove that had both types. Sound system is awesome and it's fully loaded. Oh and the gas mileage is incredible.

Shiny, fancy and easy to drive

I bought a Fiat 500 because I wanted a car which was not too expensive and small to move around easily. It's a very good car, one of the most popular cars in Italy where I come from. Easy to drive, you can park it anywhere, very good gas mileage. And most importantly, you will feel very fancy!

Fun for the money!

Mine is a 2013 Abarth hardtop. Italian cars aren?t about performance, they?re about the ILLUSION of performance wrapped up in fun. When you understand that, you?ll get why so many people fall in love with the Abarth. You cannot beat the experience that this little turbocharged Tasmanian Devil provides.

Fun car to drive

Enjoy driving this fun car also handles winter in up state NY. Heated seats with sun roof are nice options. Definitely get the turbo and sound system is excellent
