Just buy an original FIAT 595 Abarth - nice ones can be had for $10-15K. You get rear engine, RWD and that weighs as little as 1100lbs I think.

Just extend your pinky and keep the hands on the wheel always

Did I now?

I just had my taco fix at Tacos El Gordo in Vegas - stood in line for an hour, split 12 tiny tacos with my wife, so worth it. We have plenty good Mexican food in Denver too, but that carne adobada at Los Cuates...

I go out of my way to eat carne adobada at Los Cuates. I am actually trying to convince my wife to drive to Albuquerque from Denver just to eat there.

Same here - loads of fun

Bull - you can buy parts for old cars just as easy, and accessibility and simplicity of old cars makes them way easier to work on. Change parts on an old beetle, or on an Audi 2.7L TT All-road?

Would not be my first choice either, but he has a 650hp Mustang for fun. I drive a Pilot in the snow and when I need to transport dogs - but I prefer my Abarth when the weather is nice, so I can understand his reasoning

It wasn’t an unknown problem - I just don’t remember what it was. He still has a supercharged Mustang with 650 hp of he wants fun

Exactly what I asked him..

Honestly, not sure - he might have mentioned it, but there was whiskey involved that night :)

I don’t think that most independent shops charge much less per hour than dealers. Only way to make this work is to buy your own parts and fix it yourself, but on these modern cars... Easier said than done

My friend just traded his - had a check engine light and dealer wanted $6000 to repair it. He now has a brand new Nissan Rogue :). He even had an extended warranty, that didn’t cover his problem.

Wheels =\= tires

None I am aware of - it might be Miata transmission.

Seriously? I read that religiously, why is it going down? They have 600+ comments every Monday

I bought a used FIAT 500 Abarth GQ edition convertible for 15200 with 5900 miles on the clock - MSRP around $27-28K. If this car depreciates in a similar manner, I’ll have one in a few years.

I need to know what kind of an exhaust it will have. I have an Abarth GQ, which came with a muffler. I bought the exhaust that comes on regular Abarths, without a muffler, and it makes a huge difference - now my car sounds as it should (awesome).

Out of every shape out there for a brand new design, they had to steal the Kia kink on the bottom of the grill??

I don’t think risk is needed for a class action suit. Loss of value because of the broken hatch - should be similar to lawsuit against VW for loss of value because of the dieselgate.
