Stilo tech specs

Hello Stilo owners!

The stilo is one fiat I know least about. Could someone tell me the 0-60, 0-100 etc and bhp or any other exciting facts about this car (Yes I am that sad) I think its the 2.4 abarth version that is the fastest? Or am i wrong on this one? tell me!!

Cheers

Pinin

Re: Stilo tech specs

Abarth only manages to squeeze 170 brake out of a 2.4 engine! My astra had the same bhp and that was only a 2ltr non turbo. Still, I bet its a smoothie.

Talking Re: Stilo tech specs

oh it's a smoothy alright - the 2.4 engine is more about torque and smoothness of delivery. Generally BHP is more about top speed rather than acceleration. The Stilo will touch about 140 mph - more than enough for the average driver!!

Re: Stilo tech specs

Your'e obviously a pleased stilo driver then jasper
as long as you enjoy your motor, that's all that matters.

Re: Stilo tech specs

I got hold of some interesting figures:

Audi A8 4.2 Tiptronic 16.2s 1/4 mile

Fiat 2.4 Abarth 16.5s 1/4 mile

VW Golf V5 16.6s 1/4 mile

Merc S320 16.6s 1/4 mile

Merc C200K 16.7s 1/4 mile

Lexus GS300 16.8s 1/4 mile

Audi A6 Avant 3.0 Quattro SE 17.0s 1/4 mile

If you ask me the figures speak for them selves

I agree Pinin Abarth should have been at least 190BHP if not 220. I love the coupe - I think they're absolute stunners both in looks and performance. At some point I'd love to own one, but the patter of tiny feet meant I had to be slightly sensible and get the Alfa instead!!!

Re: Stilo tech specs

Hey don't kid yourself - A good percentage of the guys and gals on the coupe forum use the coop to cart around kids and all the paraphenalia that goes with it. Its surprisingly spacious in the back and has a decent sized boot thanks to the "cut off" design at the back.
You can pick up a mint coop cheap now, I really can't praise these cars enough. But then again I haven't been stung with my first big bill yet (touch wood!)

Re: Stilo tech specs

Hi black JTD, to answer your question...


I am 22, 23 next week. I am paying just under a grand fully comp, which i think is a bit of a bargain considering the cars performance and insurance group (18)!
I bought a 16 valve turbo version before this one, And that was only about a hundred squids cheaper, It was a lot slower as well.
Only thing is, to own the 20vt version, most insurers ask that the driver be 23 or over, not a problem in your case. Well I had already bought the car and wasn't 23 for 2 months. My arse was twitching I can tell you!!
Fortunately they made an exception as I was so close to the requirement.
I do have 4 yrs no claims tho.

Oh yeah, had an astra GSI before my coupe affair, and that was a grand third party fire and theft

pinin
