Hi All. 500 Irish owner 'twice over' having 'started' with a Sport model (looks like the standard 500) and moved on recently to a 'newish' 500 Lounge.
In Europe that have just announced a revamp of the models that are now available to buy. As you know we have the Pop, Lounge and Sport with engine choices of 1.2, 1.4 (Not multi-air like you guys) and the Twin Air. They have 'dropped' our Sport model and re-vamped it into a 'new' Twin Air using a '+' for the spec level and limited the colour choices to the darker ones.
What I wanted to ask was - which model sells the best in the U.S. - is it the Pop, Lounge or Sport ?
There's quite a bit of interest with some individuals on your Sport spec because it looks quite different to the Pop and Lounge models. It's like a half way house between the standard 500 and an Abarth without the MA Turbo engine.
Realise that it's early days yet.
I'm not too sure if it's worth doing a Poll on it - several have been done to-date but more on 'Stop start'... etc.
I thought that if the demand for your Sport model in the US was higher than anticipated then it might be a model that could be or would be offered in Europe.
Any inputs greatly appreciated.
