So it just happens to be my luck!

I wanted a 99 civic si when i was 18, and somehow, i got one.

Then, I had my eye on a Acura 3.5RL for a few years, and eventually, i was able to own one, load her up VIP/EXE style with air suspension.

Again I was able to achieve ownership of a car i had been dreaming about!

I’m in love!

Saw her online and i just had to have her!

The price was just right and I’m very pleased with the car, nay, ECSTATIC!

I’ve already put in a short shift adapter, turbo timer, window vent visors, HIDs in the head and fog lights, and Yokohama s.drive tires. LEDs, a windshield tint visor and fog and tail light films are next in line and are in my trunk awaiting install.

I know there are a lot of other mods i can do to this car, A visit to 500madness.com and roadracemotorsports.com and I’m overwhelmed at the options! But I just got the car and I’d like to get used to “Aby” first before I start adding performance. That should give me enough time to save up money for the mods and when i get used to her and get bored of the current performance, LOL.

I like the white wheels on it. Thought about some for mine but that’s just one more thing to keep clean. Congrats!

How long until the engine gets moved to the correct place and you nix what the Italians think is a seat you can put people into?

Congrats!

I totally want one of these as a city car and to make loud exhaust noises and irritate my neighbors. Please report back with any maintenance problems out of the ordinary - it’s the only thing holding me back.

BRAAAAAP!

I haven’t driven one, but someone at my work has a black Abarth and the sound it makes is just dirrrrty.

Congrats on your new purchase, my only fear is the white wheels vs. brake dust plus all the other road debris.

so far so good, the dealer fixed the side skirt issue, and now i just gotta wait for a sunny day to tighten the bolts on the window track/regulator... they sound a little loose.

Well, in that case, get a Duesenberg or two. Some Ferrari GTBs, Toyota GT2000. When you get them, make sure to contact me and let me drive those from time to time

Modern Fiats aren’t that bad.

Anecdotally, Fiat seems to churn out more lemons than other brands, but the non-lemons seem to last without major problems.
