I don't ask questions about my 350Z or my BMW's here, I go to my350z.com and bimmerpost.com, therefore I fail to understand why anyone would post HERE questions about their non-Acura cars.

But how about Fiats? Can we ask questions about Fiats here?

Yes, so long as the question is "Why would you buy a Fiat?" or "How bad would a Fiat lose to an RLX with all season tires?"

Cool. So my question:

If I were to get a Fiat 500, should I put it in the trash can or the recycling bin after the first tank of gas runs out?

I wouldn't bet against an Abarth or a 124, or the 500e

My neighbor has an Abarth. It's super slick.

I thought it would be a cool little car too-in fact, International Motor Sports Racing Museum in Watkins was giving one away a few years ago. I entered the raffle a bunch of times hoping to win it and after talking to my niece's b/f who had one less than a year, am glad I didn't win. Nothing but problems, tranny locked in 2nd gear and the dealer said "drive it in, we'll have a look." Dealer is 22 miles away . . . All manner of problems, one after the other from electronics to mechanical (wipers won't work neither will tranny). The ride was terrible he said, he's 19, I can't imagine driving this thing as a middle aged man.

Interesting. I know a few people who have them. Two of them highly modded. And of those is a man well into his 50's having owned tons of performance cars. They all LOVE them. No issues.

I would love to have the new 124...of course its an abarth motor in an otherwise japanese car (miata)...looks awesome.

yeah, I was really hoping I would win the Ferrari version being raffled a couple years ago--it would be a hoot to drive on weekends around town.
