Forgot to tell you the details.
Yes it is a Palio and yes it is the 1.6 liter version. (106hp, not much but not that bad.) I had the 1.0 liter a few years ago (61hp weheeee :lol: !) and loved it. So far I?m loving this one even more! It has all the good bits the other one had and nearly twice the power :mrgreen:
And I really don?t know why the cars sold here are (in most cases) different.
As you can see in the pictures, I "tuned" it a bit: Exchanged the wheels/ tires from 175/65R14 to 195/45R15 and installed Eibach Sportline springs.

Glad you liked it! :)
 
Nice ride! :thumbsup:

106 hp is quite good for a small car like that! :twisted:
 
Funny to see all those european cars designed for south america. What's the deal behind them ? Wouldn't it be more effective to bring already existing designs over instead of creating a whole new car ? Like the Punto in your case
 
I must say it is a really nice car, are you going to powerslide it? :lol:

Well, we had the Uno, Tipo, Tempra and now the Stilo. The Palio was marketed as a "world car" and Fiat is currently considering selling the new Punto here as a middle car between the Palio and the Stilo. I really hope they do!

I used to go sideways with the 1.0 liter version, I can try that with this one as well! :lol:
 
I'm sorry, but that car really sucks.









:roll:





















Just kiddin', of course. Looks like a nippy little runabout. Don't die in it! :p

195 on 106 bhp? :shock:
isn't that kinda wide? you're still able to move the car?

the smaller the tire, the more the fun ;)

Hmmm, yes it is a little wide, but grip in corners is just fenomenal. It?s not much wider then the original equipment (175). In fact, I found much easier to launch the car, the 175?s spun very easily.
I can just imagine what will you say when I tell you I used to run 195/45 on the 1.0 liter version, wich has only 60 bhp :lol: :lol: :lol:
