As one of the original "city cars" the Fiat 500 began production in 1957 as the Nuova 500.  It had a 479cc engine, rear-hinged doors, and produced 13 horse power.  As a way to show their pride in this original model, the modern Fiat 500 can now be purchased as a retro-styled model known as the "1957".  

The Nuova changed to the "D" model in 1960 and the engine size increased to 499cc and a whopping 17 horse power.  The "L" or Lusso model began production in 1968 and is the luxury model of all Fiat 500s. 

This vehicle is a 1972 model year, was imported from Italy, and has 88,000 Kilometers on the odometer.  It is a dark orange in color with a black interior.  The paint is new and the interior is in excellent condition with one tear in the lower dashboard vinyl.  It was mechanically gone through before being shipped and runs very well with no mechanical problems.  The tires are also new, and all electrics function as they should. 

It is a fun car to drive and starts a conversation everywhere you go.  I imported this vehicle and another with the idea of keeping and driving them, but now I need to move this 500L along. 

It does not have a US title, but has all of the paperwork needed to obtain one if desired including the importation documents, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) form, and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) declaration. 

Purchasing and shipping:  Shipping for this vehicle is the sole responsibility of the purchaser.  If you purchase this vehicle, please don't interpret that as the opportunity to negotiate for a lower price.  That being said, I realize that purchasing any vehicle online can be nerve-wracking, therefore; if you arrive to take ownership of this 500L and are not happy in any way, just pay my listing fees (about $150), we'll part as friends, and I'll contact the next bidder or re-list it.

The vehicle is for sale locally, so I may end this listing early.    

Thanks for the interest, and email mail me with any questions.

Fiat 500L production halted in Serbia

Fri, 01 Nov 2013

News is trickling out of the Serbian factory that's responsible for Fiat 500L production that work has stopped due to a delay in parts delivery. Fiat has been mum on the reasoning for the stoppage, which is going on its tenth day, according to Automotive News. "Production ceased on Wednesday and we still don't know when it will resume," said a spokesperson for Fiat's Serbian operations.
While Fiat isn't saying what the issue is, AN is reporting a number of workers for a local transport company are protesting over unpaid wages. They've blocked the road and rail lines leading towards the factory, preventing the delivery of parts for production.
If the stoppage continues, it's going to be bad news for the 500L, as its numbers have just started to pick up following its launch in June. According to a report earlier this month, sales cracked 1,000 units in September. A lengthy delay in production will also count as another blow for local Fiat dealers, which have struggled over small profits, a limited lineup and rumors that Fiat stores will not be selling the Alfa Romeo 4C as promised.

Road Race Motorsports rolls out Fiat 500 M1 Turbo Tallini Competizione

Fri, 01 Aug 2014

We've seen some pretty radical modifications based on the Fiat 500 - from the Abarth 695 Biposto to that ridiculous idea to put a Ferrari engine in the back of a Cinquecento - but we never seem to get tired of it. On that note, we bring you the Fiat 500 M1 Turbo Tallini Competizione.
Built by Road Race Motorsports, the M1 takes a tarmac-rally approach and features an extensive list of modifications. For starters, the engine has been retuned to produce 250 horsepower and 250 pound-feet of torque, helping to knock a second off the 0-60 time (7.2 seconds from the factory). Upgraded brakes net a 20-percent improvement in stopping distance, and Road Race has put a special emphasis on high-speed stability and cornering performance.
Other modifications include a limited-slip differential, carbon-kevlar clutch and a reworked suspension with Bilstein shocks, stiffer bushings and upgraded sway bar, with 16-inch wheels wearing Toyo Proxes rubber. In addition to a full carbon-fiber widebody kit that helps cut 120 pounds off the curb weight, Road Race has given the M1 a new front air dam, side skirts, hood vents, brake ducts and rear spoiler. The interior has similarly been upgraded with racing buckets, five-point harnesses and a roll cage.
