    I don't think we'll see Abarth here unfortunately. Cool to see the 500 coming over though.

    You brake to slow down a car

    You break even.

    That is all.

    Fiat has been saying that even the Abarth will make it over. Sign me up!! There is still some doubt that the 500 will make it to Canada, they really want the American market and aren't really interested in Canada.

    Watch both parts, Chrysler/Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne. The Fiat 500 is coming in normal, cabriolet and Abarth formats

    The 1.4 engine plant looks like it's going to go to the mexicans because there really is absolutely no good reason to build it in the states.

    LOL yeah unfortunately in keeping with Fiat's dubious quality it would spend most of the time in the shop - fun or not. I guess that the lot boy might have fun booting around in it, though.
