I think I've seen you in a pic... Aren't you too tall for a 500?!
Or you took the seat out and driving from the back seat?

+1 on the M235....

Mooty must have option pack Z on his fiat 500, the sawzall kit. Allows for flinstone conversion and also allows for custom headroom mods. Includes vinyl storage bag for spare parts.

Check out a couple of year old E92 before you try m235. No comparison and a smarter buy.

coming up soon, just for you!

now that you all have helped me get into this crazy beast of a super wagon.....now help me decide if i should wrap the front end. i am hedging bc it is a pain in the *** to leave it for a day or two, and it is costly, and i don't know if i really need it.

the car will probably be driven 10-12k miles per year at most, and it won't see daily freeway driving/commuting (only weekend trips, etc), and it will sleep in a garage every night. at this point i am not sure how long i will keep it, but could be as much as a half dozen years or so.

Just leave it alone and drive it.

Mooty,this is for you!

" Geneva: Fiat 500 695 Bispoto - "Fastest Street-Legal Abarth"
Mar 05, 2014

The legendary 1964 Fiat Abarth 695 has been resurrected in Geneva, with this 500 Bispoto breaking cover and dropping jaws on the Swiss floor in true Italian fashion.

Cramming a 190 horsepower, 1.4-liter T-Jet engine into its lightweight 997 kg body, the Bispoto races from 0-62mph in just 5.9 seconds. Fiat says this is the “perfect fusion of street and race car”, and is the only in its category to be equipped with an H-pattern gearbox.
With a top speed of 199mph, the 695 Bispoto will come with an assortment of customization packages to add to its standard styling kit.

As opposed to the slower, less-powerful Abarth which we already know, the Bispoto comes with only two seats, something which would make an even clearer statement of no intention of ever driving children in it were it to someday hit US showrooms. "

Carbuzz.



Hell,I'd love this too! Too bad it isn't available in the US and that I'm 6.2!
