Fiat 500 (2013)
for sale

Price: US $15,500.00

Description:

I'm putting my toy up for sale. Preparing to buy another house and wouldn't mind getting this thing off the books. I love this car. I've done a lot of work to make this car what I wanted. It should be known up front that I have raced this car. It has been used for competitive autocross events, and has spent plenty of time as several tracks. Those tracks include Road America, Willow Springs, Autobahn, RPM, Sebring, and Button Willow. Proper maintenance has always been performed and great care has always been taken to select aftermarket parts.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with this car. I am the only owner, I've had it since the ODO read 24 miles.
Something else that should be known about this car: It has a brand-new, dealer installed engine. It was replaced under warranty after some fluke issue happened. Somehow, the intake turbine fins broke off and got sucked into the engine, causing catastrophic engine damage. Chrysler deemed the problem as a failure and replaced it, along with the intercoolers and downpipe. I have looked into every possible thing that could have caused it, including the engine sucking something in. For good measure, I did not reuse the old intake. So, fresh power plant.
The following is a list of modifications. The car is quick and sharp, and the brakes will make you think the car might flip forward. This car's performance is a few steps above a regular Abarth.

I had the car all ready for track season this summer, but plans have changed. It is a genuinely unique car. It sounds mean and the power (estimated 210whp) is shocking. The tune could be made more aggressive, but I requested a lighter tune to keep it within limits on the track. The car will make any gearhead chuckle, it's a little ridiculous with it's snarl at the back and turbo whistling at the front.
Price is flexible, of course. Please feel free to make an offer. Hoping to find the right buyer that will appreciate what I've done, and hopefully get it to the track where it belongs.
Thanks for reading. Cheers.
