300 comprehensive
1m liability is the lowest aswell
$1000 collision deductible that's why its low

Ionno about you guys, but the diff between $300 and $1000 deductible was only $5/month on my car (which is neither a BRZ/Fiat). Doesn't make sense IMO..

Weird, I didnt believe that it was so expensive either but he showed me the insurance papers and it showed the base rate was 2750 with 43% discount.

Manu incentive is now 5500 for 2013 fiats as they prepare for the arrival of 2015s with the new 7" lcd instrument cluster and automatic trans for turbo and abarths. This makes any remaining 2013 very tempting to me.
For those that have had car for a while now, how are you still enjoying it and have there been any issues that have popped up?

That's the reason I got one last week the Exhasut sound
and
0% financing

believed only Fiat of Vancouver have that promotion.

P.S. also spotted bicboi at Aberdeen on past Saturday afternoon.

1 year mark for my abarth is coming up in August. Still good and reliable. The fun part never goes away. Had a little issue with the mirror switch but all fixed under warranty. The exhaust note is so godly. If you are thinking of getting one, get the cloth seat. it will hold your body through the corners better. i got the leather and i wish i had the cloth.

resale value is pretty minimal.. which is disappointing.

Got the cloth seats here. No sun roof.

Just the stripe package.. I really wish I got the "climate control" feature.

What was the original price (before tax) and the current resale value?

In addition to resale, it's a very small market segment. This was a huge deterring factor for me.

I lost $10k on my abarth when I sold it and it was only 8 month old?
Anyway would it be wrong to pick up the auto version abarth in 2015? Haha

Picked up a 2013 Abarth cabriolet last weekend... Been a complete blast so far, especially with the top down
