Basic Information & Background
A real Cityracer and the more powerful version of Abarth's interpretation of the classic Fiat 500.
What if you take the immensely popular and trendy Fiat 500 and modify give it a full workout and boost the power output from a modest 75 hp up to 180 hp, replacing the suspension with sportier Koni dampers, larger wheels, and a sports exhaust system that pops and bangs between gears? Well, you get the most powerful Abarth 595 Competizione.
Abarth is a car manufacturer that over the years has made itself known for taking Fiat models and making them something special, especially in racing. They are best known for their exhaust systems that make the small turbocharged 1.4L four sound really angry at open throttle. The engine sound sounds like an old rally car with that whistling turbo sound when you let up the gas. So instead of a regular Fiat 500, you now have a real "City Racer".
This example is well equipped and in good condition in the color combination Black / Black with red accents on emblems and seams.

Equipment
Externally, a regular Fiat 500 differs quite a bit from the Abarth's 595 Competizione. No Fiat emblems and the Abarth's logo is a bit more aggressive with a black Scorpion with yellow and red motifs on the hood, the car has got a body kit with a front spoiler with a larger air intake so the engine should get more air for more power. Side skirts to give a wider impression.
The wheels have grown and now measure 17 inches.
Red rally emblem along the sides in red with the text Abarth.
Mounted under the rear bumper is a full exhaust system with 4 exhaust pipes that gives off a symphony of mischievous engine sound.
Inside, it breathes sportiness with Alcantara / Fabric upholstered buckets with stylish red seams around the contours of the chair. Large red embroidered 595 figures on the headrest. The seats are made by Sabelt, a well-known brand in racing.
There are fun features to play with between the red lights such as checking the boost pressure or the sport button for faster throttle response.
Condition
Exterior. There are stone chips on the hood, and wash scratches in the clear coat. Minor parking damage on the right front bumper, minor scratches on the left driver's door, entry marks on the sills, and minor marks on the hatch sill.

The front registration plate is slightly bent, Rear registration plate sitting at an angle.
Interior. The driver's side floormat shows some wear
Mechanically. The car has been Stage 2 engine optimized by PB-Z which gave an output of 214 hp and 318 nm. The current owner has chosen to restore the car to its original output which gives 180 HP 250 nm.

Summary
It is difficult to find a more fun city car that provides such driving pleasure but can still be driven on a budget. Here, Italian temperament and design are mixed with the practicality of the small car. The popularity among these cars, especially in the second-hand market, means that second-hand values are very good, which gives a nice overall calculation for car ownership.
