General Dealer Just Today Can Accept Abarth Cabrio Order

[kayandjohn]

I'd decided to order one but had not been able to until today. The dealer is apparently limited to just one factory order Abarth, and today the Fiat dealer ordering system could accept an order for an Abarth Cabrio, so order I did... Rosso with Everything. Assembly to begin either Feb. 4 or March (March was more recently quoted), with delivery in April or perhaps slipped to May. If production problem arises with this new model (not that new, as they have been building the non-convertible Abarth for over a year), then all assembly stops till they solve the problem, so there is some uncertainty.

Very exciited. It will look like the one introduced at the LA Auto show on Nov. 28. I'd like to show you, but I'm not allowed to post url (since I have fewer than 5 posts here). Google search on Fiat 500 Adds Abarth Cabrio To U.S. Lineup: 2012 LA Auto Show

I bet you are excited. Now the long wait begins!

Hope you get it soon(ish)!
