Looking forward to the driving review of this, cracking car for the money. You can’t beat having a choice of car to use!

Love the editing at the beginning 😃 and beautiful color! 💙

You're gonna fall in love with this car. You'll be sorry to let it go at the end of the week.

My fav colour Will be having 1 soon

Congratulations Joel! I'm sure there's many more press cars to come. Looking forward to the content in the coming week

In the past 25 years I've owned a lot of powerfull Italian cars with 5 cylinders (Fiat Coupé Turbo), 6 cylinders (Alfa 147 GTA) and even V8 (Ferrari 355 Spider, Maserati Quattroporte Sport GT and Maserati Grancabrio MC). All incredible cars but since we moved to the northern lake area of Italy, none of these cars would really suit me on the winding mountain roads. Therefore, I bought my self a 595C Competizione with performance package (mechanical slip diff). As you've already pointed out, there are some amazing looking aspects like the steering wheel, the sabelt seats in alcantara, leather and carbon and the leaver in aluminium, in fact all the items you touch. All the other items are really crap, with even the 500-badge on the dashboard panel. For me this was just an opportunity to get these others items at the same quality level. So all plastics, both on the inside and the outside, have been replaced / covered with carbon fiber, leather and alcantara. The result you can see on my video : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rZqFqJyCxMDVmWw.html. Afterwards, I changed the wheels (OZ Ultraleggera 18 inch in the same colour as the cars) and added some colour (stickers and paint). Soon I will bring out a new video with the final result. All in all, this cars is incredible fun to drive, with very limited consumption (between 7 and 9 liters each 100 km), limited road taxe and limited service costs. And ... very important : now I don't have to worry any more when entering a narrow street or car park !!!

Man I can Imagine this car would be a nightmare to live with in many ways... But it easily has its innocence and is so easily forgiven due to those looks and that Monza exhaust 😍

I love the Fiat-Abarth Dual tone colours . Like this Blue with golden

Great VIDEO Joel I'm getting a loan of one for a few weeks while my 124 sports is getring its engine done.

Nice video. We've got a 2017 595c Competizione as a 2nd car (2019 Tiguan R-Line Tech 230ps is the main for the kids and dogs) and it's such a laugh! If I were to offer any advice to anyone who wants to get an Abarth, do it. If you can get the Monza exhaust (as per this vid) that's a bonus but the first thing to buy is a decent alarm system. They only have an immobiliser from factory. Naughty people can break in and have silence whilst they nick your car whilst doing their trickery via the OBD port.

Great content as always.

Great video, seems like an ideal daily

Best colour with the yellow callipers

Molto bene!

I drive a Z4 2.5 and my daily is a 320d. My wife drives an Abarth 2016, in bi-tone black and gray which is beautiful. Our “Abby”, yes the car has a name, is equipped with a stage1 kit, offering us 170+ hp. To me it does not feel as if my wife punishes me when she asks me to take her car for one day... Greetings from Marc, Belgium.

I’m really keen to follow this series Joel. I’m aware that there are many variations of the Abarth 500, could you summarise them if you get chance, please? Especially the ones with the more exotic marque “collaborations”. I always felt these would be an absolute scream to drive!

not a big fan of the car but i just enjoy your talking in every single video and well done

Exhaust sound in the tunnel near your regular filming spot?

Should have got the MTA version to test but I guess you got what they gave.

I'd love to see an overview of the specs, driving feel, and how practical the Abarth is - especially compared to your Z4. Maybe it's a suitable daily? Bonus; would you ever consider getting your Z4 done in that absolutely stunning podium blue? Looking forward to the next vid, this will be an exciting week!

I know I gave you a hard time on a previous video but back to Yr best on this one dude

Tiny Temper!!

I always admire the rather deep sound of this little engine. Sounds very unique too.

hey joel are z4s pretty reliable?

I’m a sucker for carbon fiber too!

Used tk got that car great only thibg was it is so small

Love these cars have one too better than a rusty 2007 Focus whose driver's slag them off

Where you from Joel?

Yeah looks nice car, but I couldn’t see cup holder in there?

Anyone who dislikes Abarths needs their head checked. You don't buy an Abarth if you're concerned by interior quality/"girls car"/"just a fiat", you buy it for fun factor, because that's all that matters with Abarths.

Nice car mate. For me it's a bit too much money to pay for a fiat! Still awesome tho

Always wanted one of these but I test drove a Competizione spec model at the start of the year and came away feeling pretty disappointed . The sound was fantastic but everything else was a bit of a let-down, which is a shame because I still really want to like them!

Give StefAbTv a shout and he will have you loving it. Invite him for a shared opinion. Great choice! The girl’s car is the base 500. This is not that car!

Drag race vs z4

These cars should have has an LSD as standard not as an extortionate extra.

its 180 hp not 170

Perfect car if ur a blonde female or gay man.....suits this guy perfectly .

Had the Esseesse version of this and can honestly say it’s one of the worst cars (if not the worst) I’ve owned... although I do still love how the looks and sounds

Give your girlfriend her car back, my man!

Give it back to the lady owner.

Girls car.... and I’m not trolling.... sorry 🤙

Sounds like a tractor, sorry
