Best car I bought used

Let me start by saying I got all my moneys worth out of this car! I bought used at 60,000 miles and still hanging on strong at 155,000. I bought used for $6,000 ( car has a salvage title). It’s only needed two repairs that were under $200. One the shift cable broke, and the other was The alternator. So I’m very happy there. Pros: Easy handling Great in traffic Good gas mileage Cons: No place for spare Inside parts broke easily. ( seat adjuster & arm rest) I can’t consider lack of space a con. It’s a subcompact.... so it’s meant to be small. That being said during test drive the front row was more roomy then I expected from looking at it from the outside. There are two back seats but I wouldn’t consider them big enough to fit two adults. The great part I used it as a two seater , I lowered the backseats and it gave me plenty of trunk space for my equipment. The only reason I’m not giving it 5 stars is lack of spare tire location and the tire size is hard to find. So the three times I had a flat tire my whole day or two days had to be canceled to find a tire and have it replaced. The car was terrific while it lasted but I’m now able to afford a bigger vehicle and ready for something else.

My little imp

2013 FIAT 500 Abarth 2dr Hatchback (1.4L 4cyl Turbo 5M)

Most fun car I have ever owned. I have a BMW roadster and although it is beautiful and fun the Fiat Abarth is my go to car. Compliments from male female young and old. The sound is thrilling once you turn the key. The 5 speed shifting smooth and let’s you throttle through each shift with ease. Mischievous it is and devilish too. That is why my license plate reads Little Imp

CUTE CAR, DANGEROUS VEHICLE

My car has 24,000 2 years old and the stick shift seized up in the middle of driving. Chrysler advised that it only was warrantied for 1 year. Ridiculous!!!! I will never do business with Chrysler again. If you like their vehicles, do your homework and research all recalls for their automobiles. You will think twice before investing in a car that will create a major vehicle repair during the "Warranty".
