The Multiair motor in my Abarth sure is a happy little sucker. The variable exhaust valves and their increased overlap when necessay is so much fun with the turbo.

Waking up at dawn and working the whole day is tough?

The Fiat 500 has good crash ratings in the U.S.. With those short over hangs there isn’t much room for durability. The whole front end needs to act as a crumple zone to absorb all that energy before it gets transferred to the interior.

Sort of...

That’s a nice Hyundai.

Do they not sell it in a solid red?

Take lots of pictures and always do one side at a time. If you keep one side assembled you’ll have a reference to go to while working on the other side.

And then I use anti-seize compound on the hub.

I use a 10' 6x2 and pound the tire off the hub from underneath, and the other side of the car.

Commuter guy here with leather/padded jacket, ugly kevlar cruiser jeans, all weather gauntlets, big cross country moon boots, and a dual sport helmet. I look like a major dork on my Wr250R but I don’t care. I stay warm and with decent protection.

They better fix it 100%, that’s what your insurance is paying for. I got my Abarth fixed a couple months ago and I had to take the car back three times:

Supercharged Zo6 FYI, that’s a 7.0L engine with knows what supercharger.

Those are some beefy wheels and tires on that pickup, they look like a set of semi truck Alcoas.

I’m pretty sure that’s a V6 with just an R/T badge.

This thing is the shiznit. A 4x4 conversion with DANA 60s would be a piece of cake.

It’s not about maturity, it’s about a compact car that gets 21.5 MPG combined. That’s only 1 MPG better than a Charger R/T.

Realistically, everything between the flywheel and the tires would need to be replaced. First the transmission, then the drive shafts, the axle shafts, the axle housings, the wheel hubs, etc...

I haven’t either, too much effort to get up to speed.

Put a Viper Tremec in it and pop the clutch, I bet it will do wheelies.

And then just pay to turn the boost up on the M2.
