I found this on Abarth 695 ‘Tributo Ferrari’ - Classic Driver - MAGAZINE - news I thought it was really cool. I would get one if they came here. Super cool little thing.

"A new performance version of the Abarth 500 is appearing at Frankfurt, bearing the proud name of Abarth 695 ‘Tributo Ferrari’.

The limited-edition car is distinguished from the standard models with some stylistic changes, but more importantly with some pretty hefty technical upgrades. For starters, the punchy 1.4 Turbo T-Jet 16v engine is tuned to develop over 180HP and mated to an MTA (Manual Transmission Automated) electromechanical gearbox with paddleshift. Acceleration is given a further boost by performance tyres on 17in alloy wheels inspired by Ferrari designs."

 

I'd love to put those seats in my mini..

 

Hell I'd love to put those seats in my Cayman. They look amazing.

 

Wow, and I was thinking this is only a marketing strategy.
Thats absolutely delicious.

 

When are these things going to finaly come to the states?

 

Gaudy, overdone, and ruined with flappy paddles. Yup, a fitting tribute to a modern Ferrari.

Unfortunately.

 

awesome, what a great city scooter

 

Scuderia stripes? Really?

Awesome little car though.

 

I would buy 10 of these, set them loose in a city, and set an Enzo after them to catch them.

Real life cat and mouse. How much fun would that be?

 

This would be a suiting car to replace the Cooper S. Although I'd like a manual.
