2012 Fiat Abarth / Nero (Metallic Black) finished with Rosso (Red) Leather Seats

Factory Options include 17" HyperBlack Wheels / Red Stripes & Mirrors / Bose Audio / Satellite Radio*

You are looking at a Like New 2012 Fiat Abarth finished in Nero (Black) with Rosso (Red) Leather Seats.  The car is in flawless condition and looks like it rolled off the showroom floor.  It has only 3k miles on the odometer.  These cars are incredibly fun to drive and are very spacious inside - more fun than Minis in my opinion and have way more of the "cool" factor.

The car has all the options you want in an Abarth and none you don't.  The 17" Wheels are an absolute must, especially in the aggressive HyperBlack finish, and the red mirror caps and stripe play off the red leather interior and red stiching of the shifter and steering wheel perfectly.  The black painted dash looks amazing and doesn't "stand out" like the other colors, which are matched to the exterior.  The interior has a luxuriously upscale feel and look to it, again unlike some of the other combos out there.  The Bose Audio system sounds amazing.

The car has no aftermarket modifications and is completely bone-stock as it came from the factory.  It's been stored in a temperature controlled garage and has never seen rain or snow.  Never been smoked in.  (still has new car scent)

Don't be fooled by the 2013s listed on eBay with NO OPTIONS and low prices that come with all kinds of stipulations!  Those cars have $22k list prices and require you to be a previous owner and all kinds of other nonsense including HIGH DEALER REGISTRATION & PAPERWORK FEES!

This is THE proper color combo for an Abarth (Black/Red leather).   This car is an attention-getter wherever it goes.  It's incredibly quick and much faster than it's 160HP motor would imply.  The sound these cars make is incredible.  There performance for such a small car is mind-blowing.  There is absolutely NO torque steer from the FWD platform.

WHY PAY HIGH DEALER FEES AND TAXES WHEN YOU CAN HAVE AN IDENTICAL CAR (NO DIFFERENCE FROM 2012 TO 2013) FOR THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS LESS?

OVERALL CONDITION
The pictures represent a truly flawless automobile.  There is absolutely NO wear on the seats, bolsters, no knicks, scratches, dents.  There really isn't much to say other than the fact the car looks, feels, drives, and runs identical to a brand new one.  No accidents, no paintwork, no damage, no dings, no dents, nothing.   The new car smell is still fully intact.  There are no squeaks, rattles, shimmys, or anything wrong with the car whatsoever.  CLEAN CARFAX!

WHATS INCLUDED
Original Window Sticker, All books and book binder, original two "switchblade" keys, front plate bracket, (never mounted), Abarth Mats with Logo - basically everything you'd get from a dealer minus the hassle, aggravation, and taxes for a new one.

SERVICE HISTORY
I had the first service completed at 2800 miles at my local Abarth Studio (Morris County Fiat).  The car also had the factory recall/bulletin performed for reprogramming of the ECU to the 2013 model.

WARRANTY
The balance of the factory 4yr, 50k bumper-to-bumper warranty applies and will transfer to the new owner.  

OTHER INFO
I'm a private seller, not a dealer, so I can't help with financing, but if you intend to purchase the car, please have your financing in order prior to committing or bidding.  The car is for sale locally so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time.   NON-LOCAL BIDDERS - Shipping is your responsibility, however I will work with you to get the car where it needs to be within reason.  PPIs are OK (unnecessary but acceptable) but only after a mutually acceptable deal and deposit is made.    

Serious purchasers / bidders only please.  I have the Title In Hand.  This is not a "firesale" or a situation where I need to or am willing to give the car away, so lowballers and wholesalers please don't waste your time.  

If you have any questions, please ask prior to placing a bid.  My reserve is reasonable.  The car can be seen by appointment in Northern Morris County NJ.

* FIAT Factory (OEM) Satellite Radio Unit will be included with the sale.  I never had time to install it.  This is not an afternmarket or extra add-on - this is the FACTORY OEM head unit that replaces the existing non-satellite head unit.

This Fiat 500 covered in human hair is a world record holder

Thu, 09 Oct 2014

Are you the type of person picks up little pieces of lint or hair in your car to keep things clean? If so, then this Fiat 500 in Italy might just drive you insane. An Italian women and her classic Fiat 500 have received two Guinness World Records for creating the world's hairiest car.
Maria Lucia Mugno grabbed her first record in 2010 after she covered her Fiat in 220 pounds (100 kilograms) of human hair, according to Guinness. But apparently that wasn't enough, because she recently set a new milestone by increasing the car's tresses to 265 pounds (120kg). It reportedly took 150 hours to create her follicle Fiat art car.
Covering your vintage Fiat in human hair would certainly be odd enough, but the story takes an even weirder turn. According to World Car Fans, Mugno reportedly imports the locks from India because the hair there is supposedly stronger than what's available from Europeans. We just hope that the stuff is getting washed somewhere in the process.

Chrysler earns $1.7B in 2012, revises product plans for US

Wed, 30 Jan 2013

Hot on the heels of Ford's earnings announcement for the year that was, Chrysler today reported a 2012 net income of $1.7 billion, up substantially from the comparatively minuscule $183 million profit earned in 2011 when it repaid its US government loans.
Chrysler's good year ended with an excellent fourth quarter that saw net income rise 68 percent from $225 million in 2011 to $378 million. Where are all those extra earnings coming from? Market share, which Chrysler saw increase to 11.4% last year on sales of 1.65 million vehicles. In fact, the Auburn Hills, MI-based automaker out-paced the industry's market growth of 13 percent last year with sales up 21 percent for the year.
The company also revealed an updated product plan for its Chrysler Group and Fiat brands that looks all the way out to 2016. It's an updated version of the plan introduced in 2009 shortly after Fiat took control of the American automaker, and includes such new additions as an Alfa Romeo model, likely the 4C, to be introduced in the US this year, as well five more Alfa models by 2016. Likewise, Fiat will be growing by an additional seven models in the coming few years.

Honda scores big in Automobile Advertising of the Year Awards [w/videos]

Wed, 15 Jan 2014

This year the Detroit Auto Show didn't just celebrate the automobile, it celebrated how we find out about the automobile, too. Partnering The One Club, this year introduced the 2014 One Show Automobile Advertising of the Year Award to Cobo Hall, celebrating winners in five different categories of advertising: broadcast television, online, interactive, experiential, and print/outdoor. Winners in those categories were judged by 50 creative directors and journalists, while a Public Choice category was chosen from among nearly 20,000 online votes.
Honda walked off with three of the six awards, its Hands spot taking Broadcast honors, its Sound of Honda getting the Online category and Illusions winning Public Choice. Hyundai made the grade in Interactive with Driveway Decision Maker, Fiat captured Print/Outdoor with its "Letters" ad, and Toyota's Tundra Endeavor Campaign spot and BMW's A Window into the Near Future were co-winners for Experiential.
You can watch all of the press release and winning videos below or check out all of the finalists, announced last month, for a refresher.
