very very nice :slayer:
As I said over on NF - love it mate!
More importantly, who's is the Modena? 
looks good, needs fogs though do like the colour.

No it doesn'tlooks good, needs fogs though
With the fogs there's too many lights... it looks like a spider with all those eyes!
Trust me, it does well worth the £100 to make sense of those black bumps.

Gahhh I know it's worth the £100, I'm just trying to make myself feel better after my foglights and 16" alloys fiasco. It's still a touch sore!

Provided the front isn't in direct sunlight, the bumps can often go un-noticed. This 500 looks fantastic without the fogs...
And anyway, you still get the bumps whether you have foglights or not. At least without the foglights it's a smoother finish. It's also more similar to the Trepiuno concept

Well the mini showrooms may have the tumbleweed floating across fairly soon like in the films because i know where my money would be spent...spot on
Stop kidding yourself... fogs are the way Seriously though, as yours is azure it dont matter cos its the best colour

I would have gone for foglights if I could. The day I was going in to add them to my order my status went to fixed. A week earlier than expected, we thought we had loads of time.Stop kidding yourself... fogs are the way
I still don't think fogs are the be all and end all on the 500. It doesn't effect the overall look of the car that much.
And yes, Chazure is the best colour. It will look effing sweet.
After going to london yesterday to see the new fiat showroom and being able to see a sport and lounge nearly side by side !!I have decided to change from a sport to a lounge 'without' the fogs. Personally I think the bumps look better as 'bumps' rather than tiny little fairy lights set in them, so I'm with suasexed.
Also saw the opening sunroof....hated it,it looked really ugly open in my opion,so glad I cant afford the extra. As for the showroom it was amazing! went with my son who couldnt take his eyes off the sales girls, altho I knew far more than them,they were dressed in spray on white lycra trousers and tops all blonde and about 6ft tall,Tom was just speechless and he also helped me decide on my choice when I could tear him away from oggling!! Off to order it in a hour soooo really excited

Agree about the sunroof when open, they do look horrible and are very noisy too. Youve done the right thing re the Lounge, so much more retro IMO
I have to go to London tommorow, wheres this showroom?

Got to agree with suasexed and slimgimli I don't feel the need to order foglights I think the bumps look fine, as they are very low down, plus when do you use foglights I haven't yet used them on my 3 year old golf.

What colour combinations did they have at the new showroom?

Hiya! they had 2 red sports both I think with white stripe down the side and black/grey interior.A white lounge with opening sunroof/blue and white check seats and the italian stripe dwn side. A jive blue sport with the bar code on roof and bonnet.Then I was told that round the corner they had more.....
A yellow sport, cha cha azure lounge I think and another red sport. Must admit I was hoping for maybe more variety,but nice to see a yellow in the flesh as thats what I have just been and ordered.....
Was going to have the ivory interior but luckily for me there was a customer one round the back with guess what.... yellow body, red leather seats and white interior......fraid I didnt like it so have gone with the black interior,plus it had the italian flag down the side which I also was going to have but changed my mind and have just gone for the wing badge!
Just got t wait till either tomorrow or weds to see if theres one already in the system to my specs before I find out how long it will take to get one!!
