Do NOT buy this Car!!!! - 2013 Fiat 500
By ray2172 - January 23 - 6:08 pmI have a 2013 Abarth. I will start on a High note and say that it is a Blast to drive, sounds great, and is an amazing small performance car. Now for the bad! I bought mine used with 4100 miles on it for about $10000 less than a brand new one, $27,500 sticker price. This should have been a sign that they dont hold their value at all. I missed having a larger car and wanted to trade it in, they offered $14,000 trade in with 6000 miles on it. Now with 16,700 miles on it I have had a brand new radiator put in it and have an appointment for a speedometer that stopped working today! Do yourself a favor and by a Honda Civic Si,VW GTi or Ford ST! I wish I had taken my own Advise!

Fun unless you want something practical - 2013 Fiat 500
By erinandlil - November 7 - 10:09 pmFull disclosure: I bought this car on a whim. My car enthusiast friend fully endorsed my decision, touting it had the "best stock exhaust ever". Its fun to drive in the city, especially under the raised train tracks in Chicago - you can actually hear the car roar. Unfortunately its so far from practical its not even funny. Inevitably the fun runs out in a couple of months and you look up trade-in value to see that this car holds absolutely zero value. And good luck explaining to the car dealerships that your Abarth is in fact different than a standard 500. I really wanted to love this car... it just didnt happen. Oh, and I had SILLY repairs two months in.
