Additional Description: Like the Mini Cooper and Volkswagen Beetle the Fiat 500 is a modern recreation of a classic. The current-generation Fiat 500 was introduced in Italy five years ago on the 50th anniversary of the 1957 original. More than half a million Fiat 500s of the current generation have been sold in Europe spurred by 60 international awards including European Car of the Year in 2008. Now as a Chrysler product the Fiat 500 is being made in Mexico for the North American market.In Italian the Fiat 500 is known as the Cinquecento (chin-kweh-chento). Out of the box it's a contender for fun-to-drive champ and as a four-seat A-class commuter car. We found it to be more fun than its competition including Mini Fit Fiesta Yaris and Mazda2 though power is not its strong suit.The Fiat 500 is about 6 inches shorter than a Mini Cooper costs about $4000 less and offers safety with a 5-star crash rating sporty performance fuel economy technology cool style and good looks. It features seven airbags a 1.4-liter engine with MultiAir valve technology Blue&Me hands-free technology a Bose sound system standard in many models and a 5-speed gearbox or optional 6-speed automatic transmission that's also fun.The Fiat 500 is available as a two-door hatchback (or three-door if you prefer) or a two-door convertible. A stretched four-door version called the Fiat 500L is coming out early in 2013. Fiat 500 hatchbacks come in a range of trim levels: Pop Lounge Gucci Sport Turbo and Abarth. Convertible 500c Cabrio models come in Pop and Lounge trim levels. An Abarth Cabrio is being introduced as a 2014 model.The Fiat 500 Pop is both the lowest cost and most all-around practical model. For $2000 less than the Fiat 500 Sport the Pop is less aggressive with a better ride. The Pop makes the most sense to us but the extra equipment in the Sport is a great value so you're a winner either way as long as you know what you want. You can also get the automatic transmission in the Pop. You lose some Italian flavor with the automatic but not having to constantly work your left leg in the city or freeway traffic jams may be a relief. The Lounge is for those who want their Cinquecento to feel more like a mainstream car with the automatic transmission softened ride and steering added chrome more amenities and optional leather.Unlike most convertibles the Fiat 500c uses a retracting fabric center section of the roof with the door frames roof pillars and side windows exactly the same as on the Coupe models. It can be opened at speeds up to 60 mph.ABS Brakes,Air Conditioning,Alloy Wheels,Automatic Headlights,Cargo Area Cover,CD Player,Cruise Control,Daytime Running Lights,Driver Airbag,Driver Multi-Adjustable Power Seat,Electronic Brake Assistance,Fog Lights,Front Side Airbag,Keyless Entry,Locking Pickup Truck Tailgate,Passenger Airbag,Power Door Locks,Power Windows,Rear Spoiler,Rear Window Defogger,Rear Wiper,Side Head Curtain Airbag,Steering Wheel Mounted Controls,Tachometer,Tilt Steering,Tilt Steering Column,Tire Pressure Monitor,Traction Control,Trip Computer,Vehicle Anti-Theft,Vehicle Stability Control System
