Hi! Finally stopped being a lurker and signed up! I live in Austin, driving a 2013 500 Abarth. It's the funnest car I've ever had and I intend to keep it forever. I bought new, now have around 140,000 miles on him. Mods and major repairs include but not limited to:
Blow off valve
Maxflow intake
GoPedal
Engine cover
CAE shifter
rear torsion bar
front and rear struts
new radio head unit
replaced turbo (for same/stock after failure)
And next up is:
rear CF bumper (bought but not installed)
CF hood
rear seat delete and strut/net
Nice to be here! Will post a pic when I get the car cleaned up!

Oh, and new transmission. That was the one I try to forget, I guess.

Welcome! Fiat are like Harleys. Stock ones are hard to find, and the upgrades are part of the fun.
