So much fresh, cold air, so little time! Look at all those holes underneath the grille. Take your eyes higher up on to the hood and witness two more larger holes. Yip. This baby is all about breathing. It’s the Fiat 500 Abarth SS, the nippy little Italian pony whose job is to displace MINI’s Cooper S. Note the extra tailpipe, how grown both are.

Caught performing extreme winter testing in Scandinavia, the 500 Abarth SS is scheduled for launch appearance next year, after it has done a few motor shows of course. Encouraging the Fiat 500 Abarth SS is a 1.4-litre turbo engine estimated to produce between 160 to 170 bhp (119kW to 127kW). These figures are well within Cooper S territory. This is the same engine, albeit mapped differently, used by big brothers Grande Punto and Bravo.

I mean they're both very nice, but the Abarth just has bigger boobs, a sexy outfit and is a tiny bit mischievous... images/smilies/wicked.gif

better comparison than an anorexic Kiera Knightley and a fake, plastic big titted porn star....

Do. Want.

I'll have mine in white with a red, white and green stripe down the middle, ta.

Greatgraddage · January 22nd, 2008, 2:59 PM

The cutesy looks can't put me off. I want.

uuuu, me likey too!!! I want it! But, still thinkin' about the Panda... is bigger, and I don't have cash for 2 cars images/smilies/biggrin.gif

I already wanted the "simple" version. A 160bhp version must be awesome.
On a side note: who is the girl in the second picture?

I'm sorry, but that's a terrible comparison, because I'd take Kiera Knightley over anybody in the same way I'd take this Abarth over a regular 500. So, bah. images/smilies/wink.gif

^ Thank you! images/smilies/smile.gif

The girly looks still put me off and it would get really annoying defending it by having to explain it's the sporty version.

Redliner · January 23rd, 2008, 2:00 AM

Erm...isn't it better to just enjoy the car for what it offers and simply don't care if others think it's "girlie"? If anything, outrunning unsuspecting people in a little girlie italian car can be lots of fun. images/smilies/lol.gif

How fucking pathetic must the other guy be if he wants to race a little Fiat...? images/smilies/blink.gif

A Prius driver? images/smilies/happy.gif

I'm gonna join the "looks to feminine" club. I't s a car for women, the end. There's nothing bad with that no but I just couldn't see myself driving that.

Felipe got himself a 500 too, not an abarth but a 120hp version.

Hercules286 · January 23rd, 2008, 6:17 PM

It's a car, the size of a shoebox with 160 horsepower. In what way could that possibly not be fun? images/smilies/lol.gif

Oh, and chicks dig it. That's a plus, guys.

avanti · January 23rd, 2008, 6:46 PM

I love it, and I would definitely get one if it wasn't for the fact that my Delta has a better power/weight ratio and already kicks ass! images/smilies/mrgreen.gif

An original 500 is on my list thought!
