I don't understand this at all. I have a 2017 Abarth 124 Spider and the door panels are the same as the rest of the interior. 

The flat black hood is an option. It’s called a Heritage Stripe.

One of the TWO interior lights was out!!! Oh My God!!! How did they ever survive?

A GFB DV+ Diverter Valve solves the “lag” issue. ($140) It’s not turbo lag, the lag is caused by the Diverter Valve. The DV dumps all of the boost everytime you lift off the throttle.

I have a Stelvio with 11,000 miles on it. No issues at all. It has been a great car. 

Looks like BMW wired the pedestrian detection system into the same circuit as the turn signals.

Fiat 500L. The roomiest small car money can buy! I have one with 50,000 miles on it and it is a great reliable car.

The MX5 looks like a Catfish! 

Reliability is fine. People who say otherwise have no or very limited experience with modern Fiats. The 1.4L multiair used in the 124 has been around for years.

It is relatively cheap to add power to the 124, an intake and a tune is worth about 20 horsepower. 

I have the standard leather seats and I find them to be very comfortable, I doubt the Recaros would be much better.

The seats in the 124 are different then the MX5's. Constructed differently making them lower. They are very comfortable too, I have done many long road trips in the Abarth 124 without any problems. (I am 6' tall) 

I also own a 124 Abarth, and yes, people stop and ask about it all the time. They stare at the car driving down the road and I have had people walk out into intersections to ask about it. The Abarth gets A LOT of attention and a lot of compliments.

The Pitchforks are coming...

I agree that the Fiat 500l has the most interior room and highest head room of any other car on the market. And the visibility is fantastic.

Not quite! You can get a decently optioned one in the mid 40's new. If you can get a new Stelvio for $30,000... You should buy 2!

I just purchased one of these last April. (Stelvio TI AWD) 

You actually have no idea what you are talking about. I have owned one of these since last spring. It has been nothing but reliable for the 13,000 miles that we have owned it.

Funny you say “Don’t sell anymore Fiats badged as jeeps” I bought a new Fiat 500L instead of a 500X because I felt the 500X was a Jeep badged as a Fiat!

The Record Monza Exhaust will be available soon here in North America. The part number is 82215590 (I got this from Mopar performance)
