White Jack: Most modern Fiats are quite ok, as long as service on time, pretty much like other euro makes. For older models get the manual for fuss-free fun~ Used to drive one

I don’t really like the idea making it aggressive like that. The original looks better. This really looks like Ah Bengs car

hehe, this car looks like the “baddies’ in PacMan game.

Cuteness aside, the engine is pretty a performance unit.

Looks exactly like years old Nissan March. Is the Nismo March more expensive than this?

mind you, the “cinquecento” is supposedly able to pull up too .97g during cornering.

Still think the Cooper S is a better choice. However, if anything, this sould be priced cheaper than the equivalent Mini.

I would think a torsion beam would not pose too much of an issue. Its a good compromise for interior space and handling. Afterall, not everyone will (or have the skill to) hang the tail out if it had an IRS. IRS is nice, but front suspension tuning is more important in a FWD car like this.

I think the power is also good. Like the Mini, this will sell based on looks. If you needed proper performance, the french hot hatches give you more bang for the buck.

its an ABARTH! for goodness sake…whats with just 135hp and 180NM torque only. It should be putting out 150hp; 206NM standard and sports putting out 230Nm. Just like the Bravo.

The track is too wide and the tyres are too big. Fast and grippy? – yes. Fun? Not so sure…

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They’ve put a torsion beam at the back! That’s defeating the whole purpose of this car! Damn!

pity that fiat did not continue with the rear engine-rear drive layout, it would be a lot more interesting

135hp for 1.4 unit is quite huge, but not as huge as 170hp 1.4 unit of Golf GT TSI.

lets hope it drives as well as the Panda 100hp, then it will be the next best hot hatch
