  • In this video I give a full in depth tour of the 2012 Fiat 500C lounge. I take viewers on a close look through the interior and exterior of this car while showing details, over viewing of features, and noting unique styling cues to the vehicle itself. I also show the engine and the details of it, start it up and see how it sounds under acceleration. A thorough tour/review of this car designed to give others a greater overall appreciation of the vehicle.

    I just bought one....2017.....I absolutely love it ......America’s most underrated car

      daisyroots yours I’m guessing (whether a standard 500/“Cinquecento” in Italian or a high performance Abarth) has a very passionate engine sound, which is my personal FAV thing about the Fiat 500. Italian cars like it are meant for people who are most passionate about cars and driving. Keep enjoying yours as long as you have it.

      daisyroots it’s underrated and hated for a good reason, unreliable and not even suitable for the American market in the first place

      @@Txtzraven Yeah because you just hate little cars. I don't get it: Mazda 2, Toyota Yaris, Volkswagen Polo, Fiat 500, Mitsubishi Space Star, Ford Fiesta, MINI Cooper Hatchback, New Nissan Leaf..There are so many cool and good subcompact cars. Economical, fun to drive with a manual and also reliable if you maintain them right like any other car.
      Problem you have with the 500 is that they used a brand new type of engine for you.
      Here in Europe there are good, reliable 1.2l 8valve 69hp and 1.4l 16valve 101hp engine.
      Get one of those and you'll be fine, the Multiair engine this particular model has is let's say pretty well known for having problems cause it's a complex system.
      Like I said 1.2l or 1.4l engine non turbo engine perfect for driving in the city. But now I have a personal question:
      What's the speed limit in american cities if it's 30 both engines would be ok.

    People don't forget this car is for fun driving and asthetics. It's not made for usability in mind. I would so buy this car. Reminds me of a Ferrari just miniature and less powerful. It definantly looks different than anything else on the street today! Love Fiat!

    I drive a front wheel drive small car now. In the snow...it is just fine. I have owned 3 Subaru's and they were the best on the road for snow but a front engine, front wheel drive car is the next best option.
    I live in Chicago so yes, we get tons of snow every year.

    @7477238 I actually live in Virginia, but I was up in Canada for a few days, so I got to experience Canada's drivers, and I LOVED THEM! There was a dad and his daughter in (probably) an 80s car, and they were booking it. The (rental) car that we had didn't have km/h, so we had to "assume" the speed limit.
    So my conclusion is that Canadian drivers drive well (even if they cut people off), because they don't drive 20mph under the speed limit like half of Virginians.

    @darkhorse000 did you know most motorcycles have engines that make under 100 horsepower, and yet they still go very fast? this is because of something called power-to-weight ratio. when you have a car that weighs less than a brick, a small engine is plenty.

    @darkhorse000 Agree, 101 HP (maybe 90 to the wheels?) is fine for city streets, not so good for expressways or passing. And no matter how you slice it, over 10 secs 0-60 is a dog whatever the power/weight ratio. They saved Chrysler though so props to them I guess.
