Quit tempting me with the adorable angry Italian!

They sound so nice and look so good and 5-speed manual and GIMME.

These are my third and forth ones I've seen since Sunday. Too much temptation in 3 days!

I saw an abarth once, and he was trying to be all fast and furious, i saw him in the rear view mirror and i stepped on it and calmed his smokes down. I was driving a 98 Mustang V6 from a friend. That moment when he realized his car wasnt a race car, it was beautiful.

Heed the call of the Scorpion. You know you want to.

I was hanging out at Sonic with some friends a few nights ago. I heard what I figured had to be a Maserati go by. Turned and looked. Nope, 500 Abarth.

This commercial is so much better than their new ones.

The exhaust note is just magical.

I say the Fiat 500 Abarth is like Cristin Milioti from HIMYM, adorable, tiny, yet feisty.

There is an Abarth running around here with an almost straight pipe exhaust, sounds so sexy!!

I just came back from an Abarth track day in Connecticut. There were 30+ Abarth drivers there. At the end of the day as we all got in our cars to head home, the sound coming from the parking lot was glorious. Like an angry hive of tiny Ferraris.

This was such a good commercial: representing the little Italian car as something so incredibly seductive yet incomprehensible. Perfect.

If you try that on a road with curves, I think you would have had a very different experience.

I've driven Mustangs and I own a Fiat, I like both for different reasons, but if you were able to lost the guy on a curvy road it's only because he either didn't know what he was doing or he just wasn't in the mood to play.

Believe me, he was into the game , it must have been the first option then. But also, if you know what you're doing in a mustang, it can handle corners very well.

True, but Ive always found them a little heavy to be rally good, though I hear the new ones are built a little better for curves tgan they used to be.

Well he wasn't trying then, because if you look at specs, an Abarth is quite a bit quicker than a '98 V6 Mustang, despite having a 1.4L vs a 4.0l. You probably mistook a loud exhaust note for acceleration. But, whoever said an Abarth was a race car? It's a very quick city car with loads of heritage. Also, I'm sorry to hear you were driving a '98 Mustang V6.

You must live on Imagination Mountain then.

Its a more true car than the other city thing. The other guy must have been a noob, he was trying to overtake everybody as if he was being chased by someone.

The abarth isn't the big deal you know? That thing is fwd to start with, that is minus points on handling, so...

oh the thing is super heavy, thats true, and about the new ones, you need to ride in one, it feels superb, a friend has one, i havent driven it but it can handle corners really good. You would be surprised.
