Go for the Stilo; great looks and it looks very snazy in black.

Get the Stilo. It looks gorgeous plus it would probably be better in the long run.

I've got a yellow Panda and I must agree with Moogs... The flies really flock to my car, it must look like a big yellow flower to them. It really is a bit annoying when you're trying to polish it...

Saying that red & black are so hard to keep - think of the constant need for polish to stop the red going pink... I'm never gonna buy another red car again. I made that mistake once...

But I do love how my yellow Panda stands out from the crowd. I've never lost him in a car park, as all cars seem to be manufactured in only silver, black and red these days...

Not sure that yellow suits the bigger car though... (Especially the big yellow Mercedes I've seen around Belfast :yuck: )

Get the stilo and if your not going to wash it much go for the red! My old der a has a red stilo and washes it about once a month, n it never seemed to look very dirty at all, great colour if you ask me all though i do prefer the blue, like on the pic of the punto.. ...bu maybe im a bit bias ther

Yellow all the way. When you get a Stilo you are shouting in the face of the conformists who choose Golf's, Astra's and Focus's. Don't stop their, go all the way with yellow and give everyone the fingers up at the same time. (does that make sense to anybody but me?)

I'd say go for the yellow mate, shows the lines of the Stilo really well.

Also, if anyone goes into you they have NO excuse that they didn't see you

However, I'm shocked that no-one has mentioned dark metallic blue (think its called Vitality Blue)

That's one nice colour

[smilie=1,20,9] Shhhhh that's my colour [smilie=1,20,9] That's why no-one has mentioned it. It was reserved for me only

Stilo is a lard arse IMO with the 2.4L Abarth weighing in at as near to as matters 1800kg!

Thank you for your well thought out comment on the Stilo Abarth

I would recomend the stilo obviously, but depending on the equipment levels of each one its quite a close call - both good cars though.

& where did you get that info from? An Audi A8 doesn't even weigh 1800kgs. The weight of the abarth is 1265kgs for the 3dr & 1325kgs for the 5dr.

I've never driven a Stilo but wouldnt the 1.4 Stilo be a little under powered compared to the 1.4 Punto??

It's nippy in the Punto and farily quick but you don't exactly get a great sensation of power, so I'd have though in a Stilo the 1.6 would be more of a rival to the 1.4 Punto because the Stilo's heavier.

If you get a punto you'd hvave to change your name...

Get yourself a panda!

:slayer: punto punto punto all the way! :slayer:
