This eye-catching, red Fiat 500 is a special car: #463 of the limited Prima Edizione (first edition) cars. While there have been some other special editions of the Fiat 500, including the Gucci, the Prima Edizione is the only limited number, one-time series so far. As such it became an instant collector's item.
At its heart the Prima Edizione is the desirable 500 "Sport" model, with extra amenities added. It has the upgraded Sport seats in dark grey with silver cloth inserts, the terrific seven-speaker BOSE CD stereo, lower body cladding, rear spoiler, and foglights; plus the best-looking alloy wheels on the market -- in this case with black inserts for a striking contrast. The car also has SIRIUS satellite radio, and the most important option offered on a Fiat -- the huge glass sunroof. All Fiats have a peppy engine that makes them fun to drive, and the 16-inch alloy wheels and sport suspension combine with the five-speed manual transmission to maximize the driving experience in this car. For all that it is fun to drive, this car also is famous for sipping very little fuel. On a round-trip from DC to North Carolina last year, I averaged 41.2 miles per gallon! Around town I get in the mid-30s. You would have to work hard to push it under 30 MPG for a tank of gas. Some other things I love about this car: It has hill assist, so it won't slide backward for a few seconds if you are starting on a hill. And it has a charger for an iPhone plus dock for stereo input in the dash. I also appreciate Fiat's focus on safety. With traction control and antilock brakes, you can get out of most messes. And there are seven airbags to help you if things ever get really bad. The Prima Edizione was offered exclusively to members of the American Fiat Club. I was waitlisted but got lucky and took delivery of this car in March 2011. Since then I have driven it 32,000 miles and I can only describe them as "trouble-free." This car is totally reliable and every drive in it has been a pleasure. All services were performed by the Fiat dealer under a care package and all were done right the first time. Now much more than when I bought it I know that the Fiat 500 is an outstanding product. So why am I selling my Prima Edizione? I love it so much that I have upgraded to a Fiat 500 Abarth, and my new car was just delivered. So it's time for my first one to find a new home and a new owner that it will serve as well as it did me. I've absorbed all the depreciation, but this is still a pretty new car, with just 32,500 miles, maintenance done last month (oil change, new spark plugs, etc.). Most importantly you will be getting a full year or 17,500 miles of the remaining full factory warranty! A warranty like this can save any buyer $1,000 or more in a year. Plus since the original warranty has a year left on it, a new owner can get a good rate for an extended warranty if desired. This car has very few flaws. There is a crack in the windshield (shown in one of the photos, looking out; it's on the passenger side and not enough of a crack to make it fail inspection so I didn't worry about it) and one tiny door ding behind the driver's door. There is some curb rash on three of the wheels as shown too -- no dents or major damage, just the outer rims are scraped. (I never usually scrape rims; these ones extend out a bit due to lower profile tires which apparently makes them vulnerable). I bought this Prima Edizione planning to keep it for 5-10 years and I've cared for it accordingly. It's been garaged most of its life. It's been shown at car shows and Fiat Club events. I realize it sounds corny, but owning this car will really make you happier every drive you take. I am starting this auction for a very low price and with no reserve, because I am confident that my wonderful car will sell itself. As to what it's worth -- well, currently it's impossible to find a BASE Fiat 500 for under about $11,000. And this one has thousands in options above that -- the Sport package, the BOSE stereo with SIRIUS, the sunroof, climate control... and the most priceless element, the fact that is it one of only 500 Prima Edizione cars, complete with badges on the B pillar, seat backs, and dash. I have seen other Prima Ediziones selling in the mid- to high-teens, but I'm happy for the enthusiasts to decide. You get to determine what this one is worth. Many thanks for your interest in this listing. All questions are welcomed and will be answered as soon as possible. I require a $500 PayPal deposit within 48 hours of the auction's end, and the remainder of the funds should be paid on delivery or within one week with a bank check or equivalent. I have the clear Virginia title in hand and can mail it upon payment clearing. I have space to store the car so once you have paid there is no rush for you to pick it up. I live 10 miles from Washington, D.C. so if you are local come test drive it and if you live far away, you should plan a vacation -- fly out and drive your hot red Fiat 500 home! I'll be glad to meet you at the airport or otherwise work with you to make this an easy and pleasant transaction. I'd also consider driving to some locations to deliver the car at a mutually convenient time... it is after all a joy to drive. |

Fiat celebrates 30 years of Panda 4x4 with Antartica edition [w/poll]
Wed, 04 Sep 2013Typically, 4x4s are rather large affairs, but the Fiat Panda stands resolutely against the trend. And what's more, it's done just that for 30 years now, over the course of which Fiat has rolled out three successive generations and sold over 400,000 examples of the little off-roader that could. So to celebrate three decades of the Panda 4x4, Fiat is rolling out this special edition.
Called the Fiat Panda 4x4 Antartica, it's set to debut next week at the Frankfurt Motor Show alongside a new Black Code trim for the Freemont (known to us as the Dodge Journey) and an anniversary edition Abarth 595. Fiat has based this special edition on the Panda 4x4 Rock and upgraded it with two-tone paint, 15-inch diamond-finish alloys, orange trim, fog lights, tinted glass and special badging. Inside, it's got gray and orange upholstery, and European buyers can order it up with either the 85-horsepower 900cc TwinAir engine or the 75hp 1.3-liter diesel.
A limited run will reach European showrooms by the end of the year. But we wonder... should Fiat consider bringing the Panda Stateside to share floor space with the diminutive 500? Have your say in our informal poll below, and feel free to read through the press release, too.
Fiat says all Abarth models to be electric from 2024
Thu, Jul 8 2021Fiat didn’t have the big, bold product announcements in Stellantis EV Day that Ram, Dodge and Jeep did, but the Italian company still gave us a little something to chew on. For starters, Fiat says all future Abarth products will be electric from 2024 and onward. There are currently no Fiat Abarth products sold in the U.S., but the news could still be relevant to us as it concerns future Abarths. News that future Abarths will be electric by a certain time is essentially confirmation that such a vehicle or vehicles are on the way, so expect an electric Abarth sometime around 2024. Consider the 500 Abarth and 124 Abarth to be the last two gasoline-powered Abarth-branded vehicles to be sold in the U.S. Seeing the closeness of the 2024 cutoff, theyÂ’ll also likely be the last gasoline Abarth models sold globally, too. The EV promise extends further than just Abarth models, though. Fiat previously said it would become an EV-only brand by 2030, but the transition was laid out with greater specificity today. By 2024, every model line in FiatÂ’s lineup will have a full-BEV option. Fiat doesnÂ’t have a massive lineup, but it means the company will need to electrify models beyond the new 500 that is already electric. Lastly, Fiat promises that all of its commercial vehicles will offer an electric option starting in 2022, and the company is counting fuel cell vehicles as part of this lineup. The commitment to go all-EV by 2030 still stands, though Fiat now says it could get there any time between 2025-2030. Fiat says the switchover will be made whenever it can sell EVs for the same price as their combustion engine equivalents, as it wants to keep costs in a place where your typical Fiat owner can still buy its vehicles. Stellantis EV Day coverage: Dodge will launch the 'world's first electric muscle car' in 2024 Fully electric Ram 1500 will begin production in 2024 Jeep will have 4xe plug-in hybrid models across the lineup by 2025 Stellantis teases mystery electric Chrysler concept Stellantis previews 4 electric platforms: Here's how they'll be used Fiat says all Abarth models to be electric from 2024 Opel Manta E will be the electric revival of the classic German coupe Stellantis says its 2021 performance has been better than expected Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.
