Gianni FalzoneNov 22, 2011 I said it because everyone around here says Ba-low-nee and it's frustrating.

That is a joke right? Your name is Italian but you speak American dude, so don't "Americans.." anyone but yourself, pls. It's spelt bo-lo-gna and you pronounce it bo-lo-gna, that is how Italian works lol
Gianni FalzoneNov 21, 2011 Americans, it's ba-loan-ya. Not baloney.

Patrick FeluchMar 18, 2012 To be honest, I actually just test drove the 500 sport. And it was fantastic to drive. I work at a dealership so I get to drive a lot of small cars, the fiesta, focus, sonic, yaris, wave, ect. And a lot of midsize and full size cars as well. And I can't personaly think of a car that was more fun or more solid to drive than that fiat.
Sunny KanjerDec 20, 2011 Somehow this car is getting a lot of my attention
Kevin RehbockNov 22, 2011 There's quite a bit of sporty sedans to go around Dexter. The C63 AMG, E63 AMG, CLS63 AMG, 300C SRT8, Charger SRT8, the new Impreza WRX STI, Lexus IS-F, GS-F, Jaguar XFR, CTS-V, Taurus SHO. All good choices. Don't complain about a lack of new sport sedans.
Hovie Hov E-HouseNov 22, 2011 500 has been around longer then any sports saloon buddy :) n i have a peterbilt it has 650 hp n costs 250 grand doesnt mean its performant big performance cars are useless they are made for ppl that have children dat still wana go fast ... Buy 2 cars
Ben MillerNov 22, 2011 500 hp, so does a semi. Why would I get a an m5 when I can get a 1M for half the cost and similar performance numbers. Because I'm able to fit in one, that's why.
Ben MillerNov 22, 2011 Can you say "close minded"? Dexter, small cars and big cars have existed throughout car history, its nothing new making a small sports car. And the thing about big sports cars like the m5 is that hey are heavy, and heavy is bad. Who cares if it has
Dexter CorderoNov 22, 2011 Having a diverse product range is good and all, but I don't see too many new sport sedans coming out three days. It's this mentality of settling for a smaller and smaller car that these car execs are pushing to us that's annoying.
Dexter CorderoNov 22, 2011 Patrick, thing is, to me at least, it seems that almost every new car / concept coming out these days is something like this type of vehicle. And I won't even get into the whole diesel thing in this comment.
Patrick SchalkNov 22, 2011 Dexter, as consumers it's good there are different markets. If that was the case we would all be driving around in the same car. I bet you would enjoy one of these if you actually drove it.
Hovie Hov E-HouseNov 21, 2011 I placed my order for this ... N i already have a 60s 500 love em
Bryan GarzaNov 21, 2011 "Wah Wah Wah too small, I don't like it, blah blah blah." I'm not sure anyone who doesn't already agree with you is gonna care.
Joseph TombNov 21, 2011 I think there fun little cars to drive around. While I don't own one, I deliver new Mopar and now Fiat products, there pretty cool little cars.
Dexter CorderoNov 21, 2011 I want to see more M5s-RS6-type cars out there, not these midget sized two door golf carts.
Dexter CorderoNov 21, 2011 a golf cart can actually become a "fun" car. Whatever fun means in the context of these poor-excuse midget vehicles. Heck I'll even include m3s, a3s and such other sized vehicles in this category.
Dexter CorderoNov 21, 2011 It's pathetic because gone are the days of the sports sedan. Nowadays, car company executives have been spending too much time at the golf course and have actually become delusional into thinking that
Jordan SmithNov 21, 2011 I love the Abarth version. Great for a fun city car.
And Patrick, you can drift this in reverse :P
Michael GallagherNov 21, 2011 That's cute. You people buy testicals when your done getting this? If you buy this for fuel efficient or w/e, just ride a bicycle. Get in some kind of shape ( yes, I'm bored. Today's articles were blah)
Patrick SchalkNov 21, 2011 Don't mind Dexter, he's probably sexually frustrated and needs an outlet. Unfortunately for us that outlet is CarBuzz.
I love these cars though. Too bad they aren't RWD. I'd love to (try) do a burnout in one of these.
Kevin RehbockNov 21, 2011 It's not pathetic if it's light, tossable, and has a manual trans.
Gianni FalzoneNov 21, 2011 What's so pathetic about it? Not everyone wants to drive a boat.
Dexter CorderoNov 21, 2011 Seems like all the major manufacturers have launched some sort of glorified golf cart-like vehicle. Audi, BMW, and now this. So pathetic...

Rob Art MorganNov 25, 2011 The Abarth 695 has potential to compete with the MINI JCW and beef up the "hot hatch" image of the baby Fiat.
Michael GallagherNov 22, 2011 For around 25k? Could buy a lot better and more fun of a car for that
Payne Hodges WilsonNov 21, 2011 With that hp it's got to be fun to drive I've got my mini that I love that I've gotten up to 230 hp so far and it's crazy fast this has got to be up thee with the stock JCW minis
Clint EdwardsNov 21, 2011 200hp bumper car, I'd drive the hell outta that thing

Payne Hodges WilsonNov 22, 2011 A lot of manuals now days that have an aux jack or a iPhone hook up have a microphone built in so you can talk on it I have that in my mini and I use it every day it's a great feature. Still haven't figured out the drinking or eating yet haha
Joseph FliederNov 21, 2011 I agree it's hard to talk on the phone or eat while driving my lancer
Matthew LeonNov 21, 2011 1 reason about a stickshift you can't eat or drink or talk without having to shift
