Hi everyone!
Very excited to join the forum. My name is Albie, I'm in San Francisco, and I have a 2013 Abarth which I purchased in January 2017.
So far, the car has been amazing. I have some modest upgrades: GFB DV+, E+D Ph 0, 4c coilpacks, Sila Concepts ram air intake, Bonalume short shift, +5hp stickers
Planning on a few more: FMIC, CAI to replace my ram air intake, chassis braces, big red bar, AAD or CAE shifter, springs and struts.
I look forward to sharing my experience, and hopefully learning a lot from you all.
Hi from SF!

Re: Hi from SF!
Clearly those tires have some serious grip!
Welcome to the group. SF is one of my favorite cities to visit. The Abarth seems like the perfect car for SF too.

Re: Hi from SF!
The Abarth is great for SF, it was an easy choice for me. Although, I honestly don't drive it in the city that much anymore. I was using it to commute for the first year, but the traffic is so bad these days that its quicker to walk or take transit 95% of the time. Between that, the hills (my poor clutch), and the rough roads in SF, the Abarth is now my weekend queen.
As an aside, I've always thought of my Abarth as a cheerleader. She's cute, until she opens her mouth, then she's just plain mean.

Re: Hi from SF!
Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I haven't done that drive in the 500 yet; but I bet it would be a blast
