Grabbed this little car last weekend as I wanted something to keep the miles off the GTR/Boxster while still having a little fun. The petrol I save alone, without factoring maintenance or depreciation actually makes leasing this car better than free, it actually pays me $200 a month!
It's a '13 Fiat 500 Turbo. It has the Abarth engine in it, albeit slightly detuned, Abarth bodykit, brakes and slightly less harsh suspension. It also costs $5k less than the Abarth which IMO at $25k in the US is stupidly overpriced for what it is.
I'll be moving the REDZILA plate from the GTR onto the Fiat and I have a new plate coming for the GTR in a few weeks; sadly not as cool as the first one but not bad.
I'm pretty happy with it, it's just a mile muncher for us but it's a lot of fun - sounds great and isn't a bad place to be at all. It's a lot quieter and smoother than my GTR that's for sure but then it doesn't quite have the GTR's turn of pace
