Every review I read about the Abarth Essesse states that it sounds really good or better than the standard Abarth. I've not been able to find any proper videos demonstrating the sound of the SS. Has anbody else had any luck finding any videos and if so, could you please send me a link. I want to hear what all the fuss is about. Thanks.

apparently this cars exhaust etc was different to the ss kit, i asked him he said the changes he made were actually illegal or somethin

half way through this one when he gets to the ss you can hear it, sounds great!

Hmm... like that. Even if I don't go for the Esseesse kit, I'd probably still change the exhaust. And if it sounds like that....

Couldnt hear the exaust over bloody fall out boy.

Still think abarth have seriously dropped the ball with this car. I mean come on, they are a very famous and reputable tunning company with huge links to rally and racing and a great heretige for making seriously fast cars. And lets be honest all they have done is slightly tuned the T-jet engine, no more than red-dot can, its a totally appauling, imagine brabus brought out a car with only that much difference to the standard car. shocking

I understand that there are lots of people around here that, for various reasons, seem to have a real downer on the new Abarth stuff. That's fine, and I respect that greatly.

But do we have to hear about it on every Abarth-related thread?

some are similar, some are pretty damb awesome.

anyway, thats a smart car and everyone knows you cant polish a turd!

Thanks for the links guys. It sounds bloody fantastic. Really one of the best sounding exhausts I've heard on any car and better than the gtech one you can get for the abarth (which sounds great too).

In my oppinion the G-tech one sounds just as awsome! Now, if that doesnt sound mean:



I'm deffinitely getting one for mine!
