Welcome to the club!
These cars are sweet. I saw an incredible grey over red in Florence a couple of years ago with all the Scorpion logo's on it that had me by the strings for sure ..
... but ... Mark D let me drive his/your ex Cinquecento a few weeks ago .. are you SURE your other 500 was the slowest car you've ever owned I also couldn't wipe the ear-to-ear grin off my face for the rest of the afternoon either .

Lovely, reminds me of taking delivery of a Fiat 850 Spyder in 1967. That was a very fun car and had only 60 or so horsepower.
Shows having fun does nøt require Turbos and horsepower...just like a Porsche 356 did!
Where did we get lost?

The Peugeot 505 may have been sold in Canada only via the Chrysler dealers.

I remember looking at them in the showroom. I'm glad I bought a Saab 900S instead.

Well ... I took a hard left at a 914-6 and I was spoiled .. that gateway drug led to a 911E and it was all down hill from there. To my credit, I owned my 58 Speedster through that whole time and never got tired of it, you just don't need any more power in those cars, they're perfect.

Interesting car for sure. I had a Fix It Again Tony way way back before they pulled out of Canada - was a fun car, and believe me, I learned a lot of wrenching on that car.
Roughly how much are these cars in the US? The Abarth price is really jacked here, so much so that price is less of a driver to purchase.
It will be interesting to see your longer term opinion of the car. How long do you plan to keep it?
Cheers,
Mike
