Used 2013 FIAT 500 for Sale near Dallas, TX

I was more than surprised at the acceleration after reading a few negative reviews. I’ve driven V8’s for years. When I hit the gas to get on the freeway, it had more than enough power to hit 70 on the on ramp. Overall, the car is a lot more than I expected out of that little 4 cylinder! At around 35mpg on the automatic model, it’s the perfect 2nd vehicle to my 3/4 ton 4x4 Suburban! Highly recommend you drive it before you listen to everything you read. I pick it up this Friday!

This car was actually great. It was perfect for me which is why I bought it. This little Fiat 500 is the Abarth model created with a performance package: Turbo, enabled braking system, responsive handling with tight steering, dual exhaust. It has leather performance driving seats and the car is about as close to a rally car there is. It takes corners quick and clean. Acceleration is very good in the 5 speed manual 1.4 liter vehicle and then when the turbo kicks in, hang on! I really don’t have an equal comparison to make but this car fits like a glove, actually has a surprising amount of space for driver and front passenger. It’s a cabriolet/convertible as well and just is so much FUN to drive on the interstates, country roads and just cruising around town. I can’t stress the word FUN enough either. I just love it. Seems like everyone that owns one feels the same way. It’s a beautiful little Italian job.

So my wife had been asking me to look at the new FIAT 500, I was really down on the idea of owning a FIAT 500. I had seen them back in 2009 when i was living in Italy and they were cool but didnt really interest me. So the one day we were driving past the dealership and i asked if she wanted to go look at some. She said yes so we went on our journey. We were walking around and there were a few that were nice and the salesman asked if i wanted to take a sport non turbo out. So we took it out and i was really surprised how nice it drove for a small vehicle. Nothing super impressive but I liked the idea and i thought it was nicer than my mini cooper that i had. So we get back and we are looking around and the salesman asks me if i want to look inside the Abarth. Me, being a car guy said, 'yeah lets do it.' the interior was amazing, i was really surprised on how the car really was developed with the beats audio system and all the other toys. it felt like a micro race car. I start to walk away and the salesman said you didn't even hear the best part.... ???? He started it up, and all i heard was this deep throaty sound, reminiscence of miniature Ferrari, all i could think was 'how did they make a 1.4t sound like that' my heart dropped and i couldn't believe it. So we are very specific people owning over 30 cars in the last 15 years, we wanted the white one with the red seats. We search the lot and no luck, so we are really disappointed, well the salesman says, 'wait we have three in the back in a garage.' So we walk in and there it is the first one in the room with three. White with red interior, so we are about 90 percent sold at this point, well we were going to lunch to think about it and they told us to take the abarth and get a good feel for it. Well lest say its on my list of cars i own. It is a great vehicle and my wife has been getting 40+ miles per gallon in it, which is way higher than what it claims it gets. This is a truly special car, and right now we are restoring our fiat x1/9 to resemble this beautiful piece of machinery.

The Abarth is the most fun Ive ever had in a car. It has been very reliable and more dependable than my BMW or GTI. I like the fact that its unrefined, it actually doesnt feel sterile and is all about the motor and driving experience. Get one before they are gone, I think that they are going to be a classic much like some of the old Alfas.

The car was everything I expected. It is peppy and fun to drive. Has great space for being a small car. Brings back memories of when I was younger and drove a sports car
