Amen to that. I don't know why it is so hard to get the small European diesels over here. Good fuel mileage is good fuel mileage! (and I say that as the owner/driver of a VW Jetta TDI)

Actually, I was told it stands for Fix It Again Tony, but there are similar mnemonics for most all auto brand names.

I've driven the Cherry Bomb, my Ferrari red 2013 Fiat 500 Abarth 15k miles and 14 months now with zero problems.

More fun than a barrel o' monkeys.

My 500 hasn't let me down either. Most car fans get mesmerized by the high top speeds and 12 second 1/4 mile times. You just can't drive those cars in the real world. A small car with good punch in the 25-80 mph range is where the real fun is on everyday roads. Nobody builds a better car for this than Abarth. From 1954 to today an Abarth car has always led the way in driving entertainment.
