I may be in trouble again....but I'm looking at 500s today.

I've been looking at them again myself, waiting for the 2014s and their rumored passenger armrest. I already told my girlfriend if house-buying plans don't work next year and we move to another apartment, I may just break down and get one.

My main gripe is I could wait a year and the Alfas will come. Maybe. Blargh

At this point I won't believe anything about Alfas until I have pictures of them leaving the boat in Baltimore.

Couldn't swing for the Abarth this year, but got a Pop for $3k off sticker ($15k), and I've been tickled pink with it.

Nothing makes a car more fun to drive than the old Colin Chapman mantra: add lightness. Tossing 2400 lbs. around public roads never ceases to put a smile on my face.

I love the way the Abarth sounds. I'm a little sad I won't fit in one with the sunroof, though, I suppose if I really cared that much I could just get the cabrio.

The only thing it needs is a tad more power. Hopefully an intake and cat back exhaust will fix that.

Look up Madness tuners. They make a 500 buck tuning box that supposedly takes the Abarth up to 200 bhp.

Also, besides the fact that it's fun to drive...what other new car can you buy for $15k with bluetooth, leather wheel, and cruise that doesn't look (and feel) like a crappy econobox?

Heck, with the right exhaust, even the regular 500 sounds amazing:

With the right set of pipes even the regular 500 sounds incredible!
