2013 FIAT 500 - Zero troubles

I love how my car didn't have any mechanical problems for over four years now. I only had minor problems such as low air on tires or worn out wiper blades or brake lights/headlights. I haven't encountered any major costly problems such as engine failures, battery issue, brake issue or etc. Also, I like how my car is so compact, it literally fits everywhere. Super easy to find parking, and lots of space available when parking.

Story

I shipped my car from Hawaii to California. Then I picked it up from the port and drove all the way to Texas. It was over 20 hours of driving in such a tiny car. I was nervous that my car would cause trouble during the trip, but luckily it didn't. We had to stop by many gas stations to fill gas, but it was very fun and memorable, and I was surprised how well my car works.

Pros

I love how my car is super small, which makes it easier for me to find parking, and low cost for gas also. My car is a hatchback, which gives plenty of space to use when loading large stuffs. Built-in speakers are very high quality. I took a road trip with this car, which took more than 20 hours of driving, and there was zero issues.

Cons

Since I moved to the state with higher speed limits on regular road/freeways, I sometimes feel that my car is lacking accelerating power, but only in the beginning. Also, the gas tank is smaller, so I need to put gas more often in case of road trips. Lastly, people who are sitting in the back seats always complains how uncomfortable it is, but the driver seat and passenger seat are totally fine.

2013 FIAT 500 - Fiat Abarth - an enthusiast's vehicle

The overall quality of the car is standard to most other cars in the sport hatchback class. The interior quality with the leather upgrade is exceptional, but the interior electronics leave a lot to be desired. The radio and speakers (without the Beats by Dre package) are fairly weak and sound quality is quite poor. The multi-air engine is peppy, but has known problems with boost leaks. I have driven 39,000 miles and have had no issues with the car. Overall, the car is quite slow, but still peppy thanks to the turbo and quite fun to drive. The car is not for everyone and it is not the most practical car if you have a family or even friends as it is uncomfortable to carry more than one additional passenger. With all of that said, it is still a fun car and if you are a car enthusiast you ... (more)

Story

Driving with the windows down at Pensacola Beach, FL and listening to that Italian straight piped exhaust rumble is pure heaven to a car enthusiast.

Pros

Straight piped exhaust is a car lovers dream Turbo engine gives pep without killing gas mileage Parking the car and weaving in and out of traffic is a dream Used market is extremely well priced Aftermarket is great Abarth community is amazing If purchasing new, the Abarth experience is a car lovers dream

Cons

Paint is poor quality and chips are common Radio paint is also poor quality and the words on the buttons fade Boost leaks are common Depreciation is huge with new cars starting at $27k and in a few years going down to $12k Most people think of it as a clown car instead of a fun track car
