The 300bhp Rally would be something, but I thought there was the whole joint partnership thing between Mazda and Fiat where the wouldn't make a production car than was significantly more powerful than the Mx-5?
I mean part of me agrees with lots of folks here that Abarth's generally have enough Bhp and are fast enough... I'm not denying that they are great fun, honestly I'd struggle to part with mine but part of me does want to buy into a proper thoroughbred, quality Italian brand (for reasonable money). They're not cheap although I think they're pretty reasonable, particularly second hand. I do think quality has to improve just a little and hopefully we'll see that on the series 4 595 and 124. I also feel that "performance" wise Abarths are found wanting without mods compared to the competition's price tag or not much more than your top spec comp/124.. Such as golf r/RS/135i/S3 Alpha are on the move with the 500bhp Giulia, and talk of a formula 1 team next year, yes it's £50,000+ but begins to menace the Deutsche autobahn stormers. For me I'd like to see a 300+ bhp hard top for ~£40,000, oh and a add a F1 Abarth team to the list, pigs might fly...
