2012 Fiat 500 Abarth- Only 10,887mi. Fastest Bolt-on Fiat On The Road on 2040-cars
Natick, Massachusetts, United States
|
I am selling my Abarth because I hate to see it sitting around. This vehicle was primarily owned by my older brother, he is an avid car enthusiast. I am a certified automotive technician and thus I preformed all the labor and modifications per all manufacturers' specifications. The wheels and tires were mounted elsewhere, as my shop does not have tire mounting and balancing equipment.
This Fiat Abarth is highly modified with astonishing power, handling and reliability alike. The equal length half-shafts provide equal power transfer to the road; this eliminates the common torque steer problem found in most high performance FWD vehicles. This car is very fast, it is road worthy, but it wouldn't take much work by the new owner to bring it up to competition track standards. The original manufacturer's warranty still stands.
The following is a list of modifications performed:
EXTERIOR: -All chrome trim painted body color (door handles, rear hatch handle) -Lester carbon fiber front badge -Rear badge shaved/filled -Rear windshield wiper delete -Autoplus Japan carbon fiber roof spoiler -35% tint -Scorpion badges removed from fenders -OEM 500t tinted headlights, taillights & turn signals (OEM European Models) -500madness.com 4500k HID kit INTERIOR:
-Seamless rear seat delete -Neu-f short shift adapter
SUSPENSION/BRAKES: -Kw v1 coilovers (includes tool kit) -Rrm tubular chassis braces -Nue-f front sway bar (adjustable) -Nue-f rear torsion bar -RRM brake pads
(Additional set of pads included) PERFORMANCE:
-Magnetti Merreli Piggyback ECU with remote (Includes both stock 87 & 91/93 octane tune) -ATM cold air intake (no puddle-sucking) -ATM intercooler -RRM exhaust WHEELS:
16x8.5 CCW LM12 in gunmetal w/brushed lips
Freshly polished (OE wheels and tired included) I have averaged 27-28 MPG average using the high performance tune and 93 octane fuel. |

Ward's Automotive Ten Best Engines of 2014 dominated by diesels, turbos
Thu, 12 Dec 2013With the Car and Driver Ten Best decided, the North American Car and Truck of the Year finalists announced and Cadillac, Ram and Subaru chalking up wins with Motor Trend, it's fair to say that the automotive awards season is in full swing. The next set of trophies to be handed out will be from Ward's Automotive, which has announced the winners of its 2014 10 Best Engines.
The latest contest was marked by the widespread emergence of diesel power and the continued success of turbocharged engines. There was even an electric motor on this year's list. In fact, only three of the ten winners were naturally aspirated and only two winners returned from last year.
"We weren't looking to throw the bums out, as they might say about an election. We were just really impressed with the flood of new powertrains," said Ward's Automotive Editor-in-Chief Drew Winter. Those new powertrains include the 83-kilowatt electric motor from the Fiat 500e, the 1.0-liter, EcoBoost three-cylinder from the Ford Fiesta and the 2.0-liter turbodiesel from the Chevrolet Cruze.
Say hi to our new long-term 2016 Fiat 500X
Tue, Aug 16 2016We always get pretty excited when a new long-term car shows up. This Fiat 500X was a very welcome addition, as it was immediately put into the summer road-trip rotation. Since it arrived a few weeks back, it has already been to "Up North" Michigan (what we call the northern part of the lower peninsula – don't ask) three times. There's an unboxing video above with the highlights, and below we'll explain in a little more detail which options we chose and why. What we got The collective brain trust here chose the top trim level, Trekking Plus. While we tend to try and avoid the fanciest model, it was cheaper to go with a Trekking Plus rather than option up a Lounge model to get everything we were really interested in. (It's confusing – check out the "Compare Packages" link on the 500X configurator to see what we mean.) The color is called Verde Toscana – that's Tuscan Green for us Americans, and we chose the brown leather instead of black. The Trekking Plus has the 2.4-liter Tigershark four-cylinder and a nine-speed automatic transmission. (More on that soon.) It also has nearly everything you can put in one of these small crossovers, including Uconnect infotainment with navigation, a separate color screen between the gauges, blind-spot monitoring, rear parking sensors with cross-traffic detection, a rearview camera, selectable driving modes, remote start, and 18-inch wheels. We also happen to think the Trekking Plus has the most attractive exterior package among the 500X lineup. The trim names (Pop, Easy, Trekking, Lounge, Trekking Plus) could use some work, though – but hey, it's Italian. What we skipped We bucked the Michigan trend and went with front-wheel drive instead of all-wheel, saving us a theoretical $1,900. We'll put winter tires on it when the snow comes, which should be all we need to get through that six-month season of bleakness. There are some extra-cost paint options, all of which add $1,000, but we decided green looked best and had a price of $0. There are two packages available on the Trekking Plus – the imaginatively named Collection 1 and Collection 2 – but neither really appealed to us, so we skipped them. So you know what we're missing out on, Collection 1 is a big dual-pane sunroof and Beats audio, while Collection 2 is the same dual-pane sunroof packaged with auto high-beams, automatic wipers, lane departure with lane-keeping, and forward-collision braking.
Chrysler readying 20 Moparized vehicles for SEMA
Tue, 08 Oct 2013The Las Vegas Convention Center has plenty of space for aftermarket companies and automakers to show off their wares, and it looks like Chrysler is taking advantage of the spacious floor plan. At next month's SEMA Show, Chrysler will have a full 20 cars from its six brands decked out with Mopar gear.
As a hint of what is to come, Chrysler released a handful of teaser sketches showing glimpses of modified Jeep Cherokee, Ram 1500, Fiat 500L and Chrysler 300 concept vehicles. The automaker will also use the venue to show off a new line of Jeep Performance Parts offered by the all-new Mopar Off-Road Division. In addition to the images, Chrysler also issued a brief press release - posted below - breaking down some of the "industry-first features" that Mopar has offered in recent years.
