500 My lil' Fiat

Introduction

I may as well post and share too! This is the 2012 500 that recently became mine. Orange paint with a black '500' graphic on either side... and a sunroof! In my long standing tradition of naming my vehicles , I knew I needed an Italian name for this guy. So alas the car finally became 'Franco.' It loves doing fast too. Thank goodness for self discipline and cruse control... maybe people tend to call these 500s under-powered and I suppose that would be true for race track, but in daily driving, it;s a zippy little thing.
Welcome!

I'm glad you're enjoying, for a small city car they can nip, and you can certainly have a lot of fun with them! There's not a huge amount of weight to move afterall. My mum compares mine to a rollerskate!

Love the colour and stripe of yours. (y)
 
That’s a fun little 500! :)

I guess the specification for Canada is the same as for the USA - so a 1.4 MultiAir engine, 100bhp? That’s a bit more power than the majority of 500s in Europe!

The US cars make 105 hp @ 6250 rpm and 100 lbs-ft @ 3850 rpm, equipped with the 1.4 16v MultiAir 105 from the MiTo and the Punto EVO.
