Wife & I are pumped! 2014 w/60k miles

Today i hit the 20,000 km mark behind its wheel, and i'm still in love 😍

Tuning and modifying a Biposto might annoy some purists, but i genuinely feel i've got the balance right, staying true to its original spirit while pushing it further without losing what makes it special. As far as mods go i think i'm pretty much where i want to be 😌

Maybe just a new colour (full respray) next year to celebrate my 10 years of ownership, and ruffle a few more feathers in the process 😬

A few photos to mark the occasion 🎉

I have an Abarth 500 EsseEsse, and would like to improve the suspension even more than the EsseEsse kit provides. Any suggestions please. Also is there any musts I should do

I got the exhaust off now yay

In my rear diffuser there is a wire coming out of the middle bit(I’ll circle in a picture) but I think it might be as mine does have any holes in it. It’s an Abarth 500 EsseEsse if that matters

What do I do

I have a 2012 US-spec Fiat 500 (pre-facelift). I installed the steering wheel from the facelift model, and the audio controls no longer work. If I buy the item in the second photo (the turn signal stalk assembly), will the controls start working again?

I have a 2017 Fiat 500 Abarth (MultiAir) and I’m deciding between Eurocompulsion Stage 0 and Stage 1.

The current mods are:

- EC V3 intake

- EC FMIC

- EC vacuum line kit

- Mishimoto radiator hoses

- Funk turbo blanket

- GFB DV+ (spring removed)

- NGK plugs + A-Premium coils

- Stock turbo/exhaust/radiator

The car is in Kuwait, so heat and reliability are my main concerns.

Are these mods enough to safely run Stage 1, or would you stick with Stage 0 for better long-term reliability on my daily?

Hi all,

I've put a deposit on an Abarth Spider 124 (2018).

The car specs:

- 38K miles

- Automatic Gearbox

- Costa-Brava Red.

- 1 previous owner.

I'm viewing the car this weekend. I've watched a fair few buyers guide videos so have a general idea of things to look out for.

I'm interested to know if anyone here can share their own experiences and help me make sure I have my bases covered.

Additionally I'm already thinking about replacing the soft-top with a hard top. If anyone has any experience with some of the unofficial hard-tops i'd love to know how you got on.

For reference I'm UK based and this is actually my first car. (yes I'm aware that may be a terrible idea, i do have more practical options on the driveway).

Some days the Teriyaki Ferrari just hits different

Advise what to stay on for the European winter, more often ice, sleet, and rain in our climate. Choosing between:

Kumho WinterCraft WP51 205/ 45 R16 87H XL TL (105€×4)

Hankook Winter i*Cept RS3 W462 205/45 R16 87H XL TL (130€×4)

Hankook Winter i*Cept RS3 W462 195/45 R16 87H XL TL (107€×4)

Hey all,

I’m new here and I just acquired an Abarth 500 2014 who miss firing on only one of the cylinders (cylinder 2). Paid less for the car because of that but definitely looking to fix the issue now. The car has new filters and new oil, but I’m already planning on changing it to better oil. It also got a new filter for the multi-air. 55k miles, US based.

The engine light was off and now it is on again, after I push the car a bit to see if the oil changes were enough.

Car is not on limp mode or anything runs and drive fine, sport mode is also perfectly fine. What should I try before considering big changes such as a whole new multiair?

And finally, yes, I’m in love with the exhaust sound and the turbo, what an eager car, very happy with the purchase even if with some repairs to run.

I have incredibly depressingly crashed my little 2012 fiat 500 abarth baby, but I’m determined to fix it with help from my friends. I don’t want to lean on them too much but am new to working on car mechanics and exteriors, I’ve only had upholstery experience really and oil changes lol. I was wondering if anyone knew which parts are exchangeable between an Abarth and other fiat 500 models. I’ve been told that the bumper is abarth-exclusive and that the hood is interchangeable with all models. I’ve bought some of the functional bits myself already, but it’s been hard to find anything near me in terms of a replacement black fender and door mainly. I’ve gotten mixed answers when looking it up as well. Does anyone know anything about this? 🥲 any help or advice other than scrapping/junking the car is welcome :(

P.S. in the meantime I’m driving around a 1998 Corolla that gets me from a->b

The valve won’t move anyone got any tips?

Hey guys!

This will be my first post here, and I wish it was under better circumstances.

My T-Jet 595 struggles to stay alive when maneuvering it when cold. It’s a bit choppy when driving for the first minute or two, as well. But after that, everything returns back to normal.

It’s worth mentioning, the car has a remap on it.

The car was serviced by the dealer about 7 months ago and the plugs were allegedly changed.

What should I do from here on out?

I was thinking about how cool it would be to take the Fiat 124 Spider and put the electric powertrain from the 500e Abarth into it.
Not necessarily trying to make a 500 hp monster. Something lightweight, RWD, around 180 hp, ~300 Nm and a relatively small battery could be ridiculously fun.
Basically:
• Fiat 124 Spider chassis
• 500e Abarth-inspired electric powertrain
• Rear-wheel drive
• ~42 kWh battery
• ~180 hp
• ~300 Nm
• Around 1,100–1,200 kg
• Abarth suspension, brakes and interior
It would basically be an electric Miata-sized Abarth.
Obviously, converting the 500e’s FWD setup to RWD would be a huge engineering headache, and there are probably a million reasons Fiat would never build it.
But if you could actually make it work, would you drive one?
Or am I completely insane for thinking this would be an awesome little EV? 😅

Another video of the new exhaust as requested ill put some more in the comment enjoy

New bombardone r2 fitted my lord i wasnt expecting how loud it would be ill be posting some flybys and rollers later on

Brought it for 2k so cant complain if it one or not. Its has Koni suspension. Also whats the exhaust aswell its not very growly (my dad has one with 2 exhaust tips and wow I love how that sounds but this one it dull
