I bought this turbo sport 4 days ago and it's been in the shop twice already for repair, brand new car with 100 miles already has problems. I wished I had never seen the thing . I don't reccomend this car to anyone, ever. I will probably end up using the lemon law on this one , what a shame.

I purchased a 2012 Fiat 500 Sport in July 2011. It was the first model year since the vehicle's return to the U.S. so there are a few items that require improvement. At 110K miles I can't complain. it's good on gas and saves mileage on my truck.

Bought mine with optional alloy wheels, sunroof, and a couple of other options in April 2012. Got a great price. Had the car now for 17 months & have driven 38,000 miles with no mechanical problems. There was a service bulletin recall concerning ungrounded starter bolts which the dealership fixed promptly along with a blown bi-halogen headlight(probably related to the ungrounded starter bolts). However, service tech did not unhook the battery while replacing starter bolts and shorted out the climate control panel. So, now, the car is back @ the dealer to replace this. Dealer did give a loaner. Absolutely no other issues. Car is great on gas(38-40mpg mostly highway) and fun, fun to drive.
Horrible car unless you are a fiat fanatic

Bought a used sport model with about 67,000 miles on it. It was an amazing car....for about the first 6 months. I loved it, the quirky styling, the different interior, I also loved the fact it was a tiny car. Don’t know why but it attracted me. So I bought it and it was smooth sailing. Soon, part after part after part starting to need replacing. And soon, the whole engine blew. I sunk about $5000 into repairs on that car before i even had it for 6 months. I was at 73,000 miles. Got rid of that car quick and I will never again consider buying a Fiat or anything of the like. There is so many more options out there. Please save your time and money and go with something else.

My brown Fiat was totaled and I didn’t want to go with with a new car or a different brand. I loved my car and I wanted a stick shift. I found Dot in Marin and she’s beautiful (black and white) and I just love driving her. She’s fast and I feel very safe. Fiat is a car company I will stick with. I even got the same year as my previous car.
