The big deal with these cars are the value for the money. It's a very capable car when you maintain it and drive it responsibly. I drive my 15 pop with manual transmission 120 miles a day. At 19k miles I have had no problems. The car handles incredibly well on curvy roads, and it has adequate acceleration. I love flying buy more expensive cars on winding roads because they are over priced 2 ton behemoths! As a car guy who just came from a 300hp car, it takes some getting use to, but, once you realize how much better the mpgs are (36-40highway) and the handling improvement, it's actually more fun to drive than my 12 challenger. It has torque so going up bridges and hills is actually easier than other cars. The interior style is a great way to be received everyday. My car has a red and white interior and the wife loves it and anyone who rides in it loves it. Much better than the bland silver and black also rans from toyota or mazda. You will be surprised how much you can do with this little car. it's a hatchback so you can carry quite a bit when you fold down the seats. So in my opinion give these cars a chance.

I have had my little FIAT 500 Pop MANUAL trans for nearly four years. Bought it Sept 2015 when the 2019 came out and bought it NEW for $12k off the lot. Now Have 22k miles and nothing but oil changes and tires rotated ( a MUST ). Only CON would be if you want proformance then must use PREMIUM gas! I live right next to a 75 Max speed interstate. In exchange for premium gas- My little Fiat is at 75mph at the end of the on ramp. I finally backed off when I topped 90mph so I really do not know where it maxes out at. And at normal highway speeds of about 80mph I get well over 35 mile per gallon. Yes it have pretty simple controls but much safer to drive that way! My only complaint is that at 22k miles I am due for some new tires. ( probably from screeching my tires in some tight corners having so much fun driving it!) Now as all the reviews have stated- drastic loss of power in the AUTOMATIC trans. But you will find that in most automatics. Now those of you that want to question my experience in reviewing this car? I am almost 60 years old and have owned dozens of cars. My first being a V8 FORD with 3 on the column, a Hemi Dodge Charger, a Corvette, a Datsun 260z ( yes, 260 for those of you that know the difference) an MBG, a couple of TR6's, and every brand of work truck out there. I have a few dozen miles driven as in cross country several times Tucson to NY and Florida,to Anchorage Alaska and back twice. And this little Fiat is still my favorite!

Last I posted was back in 2014 when I bought the fiat 500 pop for $17,000. Three years later I still have He same love/hate relationship with my car. Let's talk about the cons first, 1. Cup holder are not practically laid out in the front of the car two large drinks cannot sit next to each other. 2. Car feels a bit under powered, however if you drive the automatic in the standard mode it does much better! You can buy the Abarth and have more power, but if you have a pop like me just switch from auto to the standard mode and you will be fine. I tinted my windows to limo tint, it makes a huge difference in the summmer! I don't have to run my AC on high, which allows me to conserve on fuel. Let's talk about the positives! 1. Small and economical I can park anywhere I want, people let me in to traffic because I'm small, and people like to smile because they think the car is cute. 2. There are many color options, and this car is customizable for those who like to tune their engines and lower their cars. 3. Gas mileage is decent I average anywhere between 28-34 depending on where I'm driving and the conditions of the road. 4. Maintenance, is awesome the only things I have replaced on my fiat has been the battery, left headlight and left tail light. In three years that's pretty good! I use full synthetic oil, and only put cheveron gas in my car. 5. Room in the car is enough for daily life, I wouldn't say the car is family friendly for those who have larger families, however my wife, daughter and I fit in here comfortably. I hope this helps you in deciding if the fiat 500 is a good juice for you. I'm glad I bought mine, and I would do it again!

Inexpensive fun transportation. Replaced a 92 Miata with this and it's as much fun to drive. Not a lot of pop in the pop but I smile every time I drive it. Lots of front seat room; rear seats comfortable for kids only. Good manual transmission. Short turning radius. Small for city driving and rides better than expected on the freeway. I like the styling, not a typical boring low end car. Only have 3000 miles so I can't speak about reliability. Update: 15000 miles. Reliable so far. Still makes me smile and lots of fun to drive. Resale value is poor but if it functions like this for 8-10 years it was a steal.

In city traffic it is small enough to avoid obstacles, and handling on the sharp curves of country roads is notable. It is more than just a case of economy, it's actually sporty and fun. Sure the 100hp engine will need you to do a bit of shifting to keep up, but exercise is good for you. In the winter snow of upstate New York, the car got me to work sometimes even before the plows cleared the roads. It's no match for AWD vehicles, but an experienced driver can go far with the manual transmission. Now at over 55,000 miles, it still rides nice, the exhaust pipe needed repair, and occasionally the rear brake pads stick, which a bit of WD40 in a timely manner corrects. Reporting in at 57,500 miles, driver's door outside handle front hinge broke. Being that the back part is what opens the door, I'm not in a rush to get it fixed. Otherwise, in the New York snow, it handles good. On the winding country roads, the 500 makes the twist in the road swiftly and safely, like a more expensive sports car.
