[non-permissible content removed] My Prima was reserved on line and I took delivery March of 2011. I'm a huge fan of the older 500's, particularly, the Abarths. After driving it for a year, I found NO problems. I missed buying a spyder back in the day and waited patiently for Fiat to return to the US after nearly 30 years. I traded in my Chrysler 300C and am now free from cringing at the gas pumps. People need to do their own research about the cars and be satisfied with their own personal results. I get a lot of inquiries from people and mostly "cute" as remarks.

Brand new fully loaded lounge cabrio.. This thing is the worst around town. I have an automatic - because that's your only option. When it shifts from 1st to 2nd you get a whiplash-like jerk. The gas pedal is awful too. Its always too little gas or too much. Something is wrong with the design of this car. Seriously. Oh yeah.. you cannot pull out across traffic.. there is a two second delay between slamming the gas down and the car actually moving. Its not a lemon.. it just stinks!!!
Most reliable car I've ever had.

I've read some of the bad reviews for this little car and wonder if mine could be one of the exceptions. It's been my daily driver for 4 years and it has not let me down EVER. I bought it used with 54K miles on it. Yes, there's been some little minor issues like the arm rest cushion coming off and having to replace the hatch handle, but nothing major. No electrical problems, never had a check engine light. Brakes are awesome and it's so easy on tires. (more than 50%tread on the tires it came with) I did just replace the battery at 86K, but she starts on a dime and runs like shes still new. Of course, I maintenance regularly, use Amsoil, and run non-ethanol gasoline when I can. She averages just over 40mpg. It's been the most reliable, problem-free, lowest cost car to maintain I've ever owned and I've been driving for 44 years.
