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.

-WeatherTechs, a given

-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.
