considering this thing or a FiST
>>
if you want to save 10k on the fiat wait like a year, they depreciate super fast
also, everything will break

>>16494492
get a FiST

also a 124 abarth might be worth looking at in a few years
>>
>>16494492
I'd vote Fiesta.

Abarth minus scorpions is a cute though.

Really, just drive both of them and then decide what fits your budget and needs in a vehicle.
>>
>>16494528
also this, they're going to drive very differently, test drive one of each and then start weighing over considerations
>>
Holy shit, a thread on /o/ with useful advice and no shitposting? What the fuck parallel dimension did I just Mandela to?

That out of the way, do what people are suggesting and drive both. I did the same and ended up with the FiST, but I enjoyed both (and the few other things I drove) immensely. The only way to tell is to get practical hands-on experience and then look at budget
>>
The Abarth with the Record Monza exhaust worth the entry ticket
>>
why is /o/ actually giving me solid advice what the fuck I was expecting to be bashed tybg
>>
>>16494455
aftermarket turbo setup? or did someone do a swap using a totaled Abarth?
>>
>>16494455
I cross shopped this car with the Abarth and the FiST. I bought the FiST January 3rd because with the end of year discounts, etc, I got it for $20k. It drove better IMO, and was a little bigger, which worked for my family. I honestly came really close to buying a Fiesta with the 1.0 tarbo, but it was just a couple grand more for the ST, but if you want truly incredible fuel economy, there's that option as well.

Like everyone else says, drive them all and buy what works for you.
>>
>>16495566
it's an actual car. It's called the 500 turbo or 500t. they're pretty rare. sold for like 3 grand less than the abarth and 2 grand more than the 500 sport
>>
either one is gay you gayboi
>>
>>16494792
this
https://youtu.be/YbaEKTaKcDo?t=83

never buy a car for the exhaust note but holy shit does the 500 abarth sound like a mean cunt
>>
>>16495695
sounds like a diesel truck
>>
>>16494455
ekkkkkk you can't find anything you want more? i mean ya its decent and you could mod it to be just a decent as an abrath for less then 10k but there are way better options. I mean unless you're a women who lives in a city and cant park for shit you could spend your money on something that easily performs better and has more space
>>
>>16495566
no lol its literally a car that fiat built. it came from the factory with the 1.4 Mutiair turbo from the abarth and the early dart
>>
i test drove the fiesta st and the abarth. the fiesta's torque delivery feels a lot nicer on the butt dyno. the abarth didn't feel as urgent and the shifter position didn't feel as good. i did love it's exhaust though, it was straight porn. alas, you can't buy a car just for how it sounds though.

i'll probably be coppin a fist in the next few months. i've seen low mileage certified pre-owned for ~16k with recaros.
>>
Because it's like buying a v6 mustang. Sure it's probably perfectly fine... But for just a little more you could have had the real thing, instead of a knock off.
>>
>>16496924

I had more fun driving a friends Abarth than I did a FiST.

Dropping a gear and powering through a corner on wide tires with no throttle lift off with that raging Italian exhaust note made me smile bigger. Even if I was probably going slower. I wish they would update it with a six speed and some more power. But FCA is strapped for cash apparently.

His had some light modifications done to the suspension and breaks. With a rear seat delete so it was a two seater with a luggage rack in the back.

in what universe is 8 grand not a substantial amount of money to you
