<------I'm thinking of buying this car soon.

Yesterday I thought to myself "Wow, Ive made so much money, I might as well enjoy some of it"

I'd still have plenty of money growing in crypto too, but with this car, im eating up like 25% of my investment, thoughts? Has anyone cashed out? what did you buy?

buy it 2 years old with 20k miles, the 10% you leave in crypto over the next year will likely make it a free car

Fiat Chrysler makes the shittiest cars out there. All chrysler makes are catered towards nigros and spics. Jeep is garbo (the wrangler is ok) dodge is a joke. The Fiat 500 is one of the most unreliable and gayest looking cars in production right now. The spider is a step in the right direction- i'll give you that, I'll even give the abarth - those things sound amazing. the only consistently good mark out of Fiat Chrysler is Ram

The Abarth is an entirely different car to the regular 500.

The Abarth is what the regular 500 should be. The Magnetti Morelli souped up 215HP Abarth is what the Abarth should start at.

I will admit that they neutered the fuck out of the regular 500 and made it into a poncing faggot-mobile.

The Abarth, however, is a completely different car and I love it to death.
