it's like you don't want to be fast, suspension design is superior to steering with power

Dont be a fucking itsuki. Just because its FWD it doesn't mean you cant enjoy it or have fun with it.

How is the reliabilty ont his? I have a secret love for the 500 but the general reliability consensus on the Fiat is bad and that stops me from buying one.
>>17751766
If it was manufactured as FWD it was never a "sports car". Just because the marketing Jews think it will sell better with he word "sport" being attached to it, doesn't make it a sports car.
That's like buying a leather dress shoe and making the lining inside bright red and stamping the word sport on the sole. Its still a thick leather dress show useless in every known athletic sport. It was never a sport shoe.
It was never a sports car.

i've driven my mum's elan, it doesn't really have much torque steer (if any), and you have to be a really bad driver to lose control in it, it's like glue on the road.

Ironically the 500 is a pretty damn reliable car. The 1.4 multiair and Tjet engines had their bugs worked out a long time ago and are some of the toughest that Fiat has built. Fit and finish-wise, it's about what you'd expect for a budget Italian car, so don't go in expecting a quiet highway cruise with no rattles. Electronics are good so far, and my clock is still keeping accurate time, so I give it a rating of spicy/meatball. Only problem that seems to come up relatively frequently in forums is front suspension seems to wear quicker than it should, but I haven't noticed any problems on mine. Just keep in mind that it's not a perfect car, just a cheap one that's fun to drive.

The definition of sports car and just sports in general when used for car descriptions are entirely arbitrary

I always find it ironic that someone spent hours to make an image to reply to a line of text
