Pictures of The Abarth
« on: January 09, 2012, 01:45:14 PM »
Happy New Year Everyone. Finally got some pictures of our Abarth. Got the car in October and absolutely loving it. Went for a more understated look, what do you think?

It's standard 135 at present but looking to change that over the next year or so. Not sure whether to go for the SS Kit or mod individually. I'm not too fussed on the SS Wheels, no idea how much difference the Brake and Shock change will make as they're pretty good now (compared to my old Supra!!) and there's a few options on increasing the power.

At present sort of thinking a power increase and a Monza Exhaust. Any feedback much appreciated though.

The car looks nice, apart from a big tax disc holder :thumbd:

The brake and shock change I think will prove to be a big improvement, especially if you are thinking of a power increase. The wheels you can always sell.  :whistle:

Yeah, you right that is a big Tax Disk Holder!!! That's the Dealer getting some advertising in. Better get that changed pronto...  :)

Hmm, good idea on selling the wheels on. How much would the wheels on their own be worth do you think? (honest answer  ;))

Order them in white, and I might be interested :P
List price at Abarth is some silly amount that no-one would ever pay.

If you are lucky enough to find someone that would take them with the tyres, you might get a decent price :)

You beat me to it. I was going to say order then in titanium and I might be interested....

They are about £250 each but totally  8) 8) 8) 8) 8) ;D

Loving more new cars coming through with no striped makes a nice change.

Got any pics of the Supra you came from?

In regards to the Brembo kit, are the wheels available in a choice of colours or just Black?

Pretty sure it's just black, I'll check tomorrow when I catchup with the dealer.

the black wheels look awesome on a red car, you just need to match the stripes :thumb:
