    I hear what your saying, believe me and thank you for the congrats. Although I love the EVO IX MR SE more its just not humanly possible to afford that car, not to mention the maintence but what I have now keeps my "wandering eye" onto what I'm driving now, completely happy with this little car!

    Just watched YouTube w/ an RRM modded Abarth and it makes 220 hp/260 ft/lbs and has scaffolding in it, plus a cool offset racing stripe....well atleast one thing is possible in the near future, LOL!

    OMG is the exhaust on that car loud....but in a good way, very, very good way!

    LOL- no "sorry Monica" needed.... I wouldn't buy a newer MINI ('07+) if you held a gun to my head.

    My opinion is keep the Honda... Fiat doesn't have the best track record. Might be like the MINI all over again.

    Love it! The shifter looks like it was created by the Car Gods!! 2200 lbs and more power and torque, WOW!!!

    Yeah Monica, I have the car and I love it, finally back in the club of having a perf car, well its a perf car to me and I have a list of small and medium mods for it already, some made it look better, some will make it perf better and one will turn the car into "Mr. Hyde" or "Dr. Jeckyl", not sure which one the monster is, LOL!

    -red nylon pull strap for the boot, matches the straps to get into the back seat
    -WeatherTechs, a given
    -stubby antenna (awaiting install, need VERY small allan wrench)
    -yellow headlight and foglight bulbs (came in yesterday)
    -leather shiftboot w/ red stitching (coming in soon)
    -ESSE ESSE badge (on back order)
    -Euro Compulsion R3T V2 short ram intake and ram-air tube, in red and (on back order)

    ...and last but not least

    -500 Madness tune, ordering soon and this mod alone puts the car from 155 whp/160 wft/lbs of torque to 187/212, give or take and this is on a bone stock car, I will also have the SRI on the car, so its going to haul arse

    Thank you and yeah, I've gotta a little bit of "play money" from the left over ext warranty from the Honda so I wanna make it a little bit my own for sure.

    I also have a set of tailights from the turbo Fiat 500 model as well, basically their black inside instead of chrome. I'm going to try and trade someone on the forum with a turbo model their head and parking lights too, they are also black with a little chrome inside, going for that sinister look, well as sinister as a 500 can look, LOL!

    Well it might take some time to find someone to trade, I'm thinking it will be someone with a white or silver turbo model and try and "convince" them that the black stands out too much on their color and my chrome housings will look much better. If I have to buy them outright its pretty expensive, like $530 cost at the dealership, the sites have em' for $700, that's a lot of money, no matter how good it looks but I'm going to try.
