I know it would be a bad idea to buy a Fiat 500 Abarth. There must be a reason these things are so cheap. Right? Even in the middle of the biggest stupid used car inflation period in the history of wheels, the Fiat 500 is still one of the cheapest cars you can get […]
It is hard to understand how small a vintage Fiat 500 (Cinquecento!) is unless you see one in person. They are 116.9 inches in length, which is 3 inches shorter than the wheelbase of a Stellantis Chrysler 300 sedan. Haha, Stellantis. Anyway, at 1100 lbs curb weight, the vintage Fiat 500 is a zippy little city car, but if you want something fun with an Abarth badge, this is the way to do it. Find this 1971 Fiat 500 Abarth offered for $18,900 in Miami, FL via ebay.
We continue DT’s Columbus Day/Canadian Thanksgiving celebration with this next Italian import, which is a Fiat: The 2012 release of the Fiat 500 for the US market was actually a success from a sales perspective..but despite the “Eye-tal-yon” heritage, this thing was assembled in Meh-he-co, which probably isn’t a bad thing, because I have to […]
Our next feature on this most festive holiday known around the globe as Fiat Munday’s is another Fiat, but this one is wasn’t assembled by someone named Gianni in Italy, but more than likely built by Jan in Poland or Juan in Mexico…which is not to say it isn’t a better car…but would fettuccine made […]
The cost of entry into the “cool” car club is getting ridiculous these days, and I’m not just talking about Ferraris, Porsches, Supras, but even simple 1st gen Mustangs in great shape are pricy, BUT, you can still find interesting cars in good shape that just aren’t that “desirable” for whatever reason. You’ve just got […]
One of the problems with driving a fast factory sports car (like a newish Corvette, M3, 911..etc) is that random people want to race you…which leaves you with the conundrum of winning these on-ramp derbys and looking like a rich buy-your-way-into-first-douche and losing your license as you murder innocent strangers in a fiery crash….so the […]

A few years ago if you had pointed me to an advert for a classic Fiat 500 with a $17k asking price, I would have laughed and started searching for custom El Caminos…but times change and the whims of the car buying public might make this thing a decent buy. Find this 1972 Fiat 500 […]
We continue DT’s Columbus Day/Canadian Thanksgiving celebration with this Fiat: The 2012 release of the Fiat 500 for the US market was actually a success from a sales perspective, even if the JLo returning to the Bronx ad was as fake as the so-called “Moon Landing.” Not to mention the Charlie Sheen Abarth advertisements that […]
Classic Italian cars are like a fine wine, aged to perfection and consumed in a leisurely manner. Modern Italian cars, on the other hand, are like coffee.
