My daughter Tennille bought a 2017 Fiat 500 Abarth in yellow, shortly before she passed in 2018, at the age of 33. Her husband kept it for a few years then traded it in, (after offering it to me, but couldn't afford it). Well.. Just a week ago I decided to find it. It was still at the dealership, two years later! The owner kept it there to use. Was never for sale! God was looking out for me! I'm buying it on Memorial day! (2024). I'm Beyond Excited!! 🧡 It only has 42k miles!
My gosh, what a story that is! Glad that you can enjoy the car, they're amazing and your daughter will surely be happy that you decided to return for it!
Man, I've been watching your channel since 2017, and I've seen you own a Lexus, Genesis, classic Ford, and even your Grandfather's Mercury. I wonder what car could be next.
I’ve had my 2013 Abarth since I bought it brand new in 2014 with only 7 miles on the odometer. Still puts a smile on my face with over 107,000 miles on it.
The sound of the abarth so loud and amazing with the sport button its a beast long time my dad and myselt driving one of my friends cars and woow every time i hear the exhaust sounds so good and loud
I absolutely love these cars. I remember test-driving a nearly-mint one in 2018, loving it, but not able to afford it at $17,000. I ended up buying a 5-yo Mini Cooper instead, which I also love, but I’m still hoping to own one of these one day. Congrats, Kyle!
Currently looking for one. It's a Unicorn because they're rare.. Have found many 2013 - 2016s but after learning the 2013s had some engine issues the search turned more to the 2015s - 2016s have found few under 88k miles. I'm going to buy...
This video was great watching Kyle! You've been my inspiration to start my channel a few years ago, and when I saw your post of buying this car, as a 2014 500 owner with one in this same color, I was excited to watch this video. Keep up the great work!
Out of all the small performance cars I really love the sound of the 500, and the 595 is just a symphony by god himself really . Enjoy it man she looks beautiful
Thanks my friend, I appreciate it! You're right about that! The only thing better was probably the 695 Biposto I got to check out while on the Gumball. I have a video of it on the channel!
I think you’d be interested in the Abarth 124 and Abarth Punto Evo SuperSport. My dad owns a 124 and I a Punto and both have the same MultiAir Turbo engines (with some minor differences), but each have very unique power delivery and handling characteristics. I’m from Georgia but live in England so I don’t know if the Punto is available there, but I’m sure there have been some imports over the years. There were only 199 of them built and the number has dwindled over the years, so they’re definitely a dying breed.
This is the very best video I have ever watched covering a single car and every single feature. Your knowledge of this ABARTH is just amazing. I would love to own one like yours, but I am a big guy so I guess I will just have to wave as you zoom by. Aso, I am wishing you and your family a wonderful Thanksgiving.
Thank you so much! I really appreciate that! I try really hard to cover as many details as I can, with any car I film! We had a great Thanksgiving, hope the same for you and your family as well. Have a great week!
Great detailed review. I just purchased a manual 2018 Lounge and the thing is an absolute hoot. I came from a 2016 Mini Cooper and it wasn't anywhere near as fun to drive. Previous gen. Coopers might quality, but the current F56 generation is ponderous by comparison and its shift action far too notchy and the clutch is heavy and long. It feels like driving a truck. Fiat, however, really captured the synergy of a light clutch, close shifter location to the steering wheel and precise, snickity throws. Add the lightweight chassis and small wheelbase and the go-kart vibe is assured. Love it!
My brother doesn’t have a 2015 fiat 500 arbarth but he had a 2018 Audi S4 but with a rear wing we went to New Jersey to go to a dealer and we finally got his dream car so I like his car but I like the 2017 Nissan GT-R I would modified it and thanks Kyle have a good day love from Maryland
@saabkyle04 I just picked up a 17 focus hatchback last year put a high flow resonator and a muffler delete and it sounds so amazing especially on cold starts
Sadly, it has not progressed, but I'm trying to get there. This year has been a challenge to say the least. Once the S10 is finished and this Fiero is gone, I should start getting more freed up. I still have the '62 GMC to work on too, but that's a long story.
I got to enjoy the exhaust sound when Sam would head out to lunch in this car while I was walking with my lunch walk group at work. I’ll bet he’s enjoying watching your videos of his old car! Hi Sam! Thanks Kyle! (Sam, was this the 500 you had when we worked together, or was it one of your many other 500’s?)
He reached out to me on instagram after I posted I bought it! Amazing how small the world is with social media. Turns out, we only live about an hour from each other LOL. Thanks for watching!
I miss my 2015. You should look into getting the black trim lights for it. Totally changes the appearance from the "cute" look to a little more menacing.
Yeah I know what you're talking about, I can't remember when they started fitting them, but it was in the later years. Definitely changes the look quite a bit.
@@saabkyle04 so they were the original Turbo model lights, 2015 was the first year it was an option. I had a Granito with the cloth interior, those wheels and the black lights
I drove a 500X once, mainly because a friend was driving it for free. That thing was a massive turd. I'm sure the 500 abarth is a significantly better driver, but if we thought 00s gm plastic was bad, this is significantly worse.
@@saabkyle04While a manual is a no brainer, what say you about all the engine horror stories on Reddit? I'd love to get one, but I'm really gun shy, given the bad reputation...
@@David_WattsI have a 2013 Abarth I’ve owned for 6 years. This car is smoked for miles…it’s a manual, too. The only thing to be aware of is the common issue of the Multi-Air brick failure.

Honestly Kyle, that's a very clean little Abarth and it sounds awesome. Not bad to have all that for a daily driver eh.
For some reason I was thinking about your channel today. Not disappointed that your still going strong 👌
Really good review mate. Loved the thoroughness and all the technical details that most other channels leave out.

Thanks pal, you too!
Nice Choice! These Abarths are the most fun cheap car if you don't mind about the reliability. Great Video Kyle!
These cars are reliable if you maintain them.
These things are cute. I love the Abarth, I only got a 2013 500 Pop. enjoy it Kyle.
That exhaust sounds amazing brother
Yessir!! I have a separate exhaust video I'll be uploading soon. It'll be around 15 minutes of nothing but sound clips :D
@saabkyle04 I just picked up a 17 focus hatchback last year put a high flow resonator and a muffler delete and it sounds so amazing especially on cold starts
Insane vehicle Kyle!
Thanks buddy!
@@saabkyle04You're welcome Kyle.
I’ve been watching SaabKyle since I was 2 or 3
Great video as always - love your in depth reviews. How is the Nissan coming along Kyle?

@@saabkyle04 Thanks for the update Kyle. I love the S10 too!
Amazing video Kyle.
Thank you!!
I've always wanted a 500 Abarth but clean factory original examples are very hard to come by. You got a nice one!
Couldn't agree more! Thanks pal!
R.I.P. 2013 SRT Viper GTS (Kyle's Dream Car).
That was sold about 6 years or so ago

Pretty cool, but I would prefer the standard 10 or the morris minor
Get ready for the new 2024 Fiat 500 EV (and possibly it’s Abarth variant) coming early 2024.
I don’t think most people like electric cars in comparison to gas cars, so it isn’t exciting
I saw that, looks cool! Although, I'm itching to see a gas version!
@@saabkyle04, I don’t think there will be one. Such an L for Fiat and Stellantis.
@@AlonsoOfVyond17, but at least it’s coming back! Better than ever!
@@saabkyle04the gas ones are better
Honestly, these things are actually pretty cool!!
Start Up 2:08
Exhaust 2:30
One of these days, I'm going to start putting time stamps back in my videos. FYI, I have a dedicated exhaust video coming out soon as well
@@saabkyle04Good Kyle! 👍🏻
What a great sounding car!! 🙂
It's pretty sweet!
Have fun breaking down on the freeway
The internet strikes again!
Congratulations!
Thank you!
thats a nice car!
Thank you!
Pretty cool, but can you do a review on a standard 10?
ConstitutionI, driving is for business, and traveling is for personal, God bless, Kyle, God, bless America, happy Thanksgiving.
I realy miss your viper
Less goo bro that’s so cool i want one so bad
Thanks buddy!
@@saabkyle04your my favorite TH-camr ever I’ve been watching your content for a while
Looks like Fun !!!
Still got the Grand Marquis?
No, sold it probably a couple of years ago
Wow, I didn’t expect you to get a Fiat.
What head unit and surround is that?
Where’d you buy it yorba linda?
Taki model można kupić też w Europie, w tym w Polsce
Do more videos of the Fiat 500
Nice
Thanks!
These are cool little cars.
I'd drive one, I'm '5,"6, so a little shorter than Kyle is, so I'd have no problem.
What ever happened to papa slim's mercury grand marquis
Please do a morris minor
Is there any still running?! 😂
Those are nice cars…
W Abarth
I drove a 500X once, mainly because a friend was driving it for free. That thing was a massive turd. I'm sure the 500 abarth is a significantly better driver, but if we thought 00s gm plastic was bad, this is significantly worse.
Later, Fiat offered this with a Automatic
Started in 2015
men I would get a hydunai venue instead of the junk fiat 500 abart the Hyundai venue looks so cute
LOL, you do you!
hyundai=death trap trash
Lack In niceties?? Howdya figure??
SUBARUWRXFAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But they’re not aggressive cars. God bless America.🇺🇸⛪️😀
Automatic is better
