They had 500 for pre-order in the US and they sold out in 54 minutes. They were "Fiat Prima Edizione" models.

They are bigger than I thought and I like these cars even more after seeing the pics below.

Oh it's a very strange looking car... but pretty cool.

Plus the Abarth should be pretty sweet in such a tiny ass car. I'm considering going to test drive the 500 some day soon. It could be pretty awesome.

Needs a custom SRT4 front end

As Jeremy Clarkson put it:

If I could afford one right now, I'd buy one. I think they're goofy little cars but compared to other goofy little cars that are around right now (cube, smart, leaf, fiesta) it's the most performance oriented (other than the cooper S) and good at it.

John Cooper Works MINI > Abarth 500

I would rock a Fiat 500... never thought I would say that!

They're still making them.. The 2013 Model year is the last year for the Evo.

They are assembled in the Mizushima plant, which is in the city of Kurashiki

Thank you Mox. I didn't know there was two more years in store for us.

Looked at a Fiat 500 on Sunday. Pretty cool little car. Put a down payment on a Abarth for when they come in. So I have a year to decide if I really want it. In a few months they get the 1st line of Callaway Fiat's and I'll be test driving one of those too.

Did you do that because the 2GN crew jacked your SRT before you bled out?

Damn... apparently I didn't help him cut deep enough. Whoops.
