almost had an incident in he 6. - Just Sean - 02-08-2013
A fiat 500 had me pegged all the way to the redline in 3rd!!
Almost got embarrassing... I was braver into the corner though!
This all happened on the runway at work....

Was it an abarth one? They are f*cking quick considering they are just a shoebox on wheels!
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Midnightclub - 02-08-2013
^^ That is exactly why they are quick though, something like 155hp in something that light!

Exactly.. One in Matt grey is my guilty pleasure and they make a lovely noise!!

The exhaust on them is hilarious, the crackles on the overrun are awesome
Yeah sean, they'll be pretty swift; about the same weight of car and more torque and better spread through the revs, so it would be bloody close. Need ITBs on now
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Just Sean - 02-08-2013
Its happening Ed!

Worst kept secret!
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Piggy - 02-08-2013
1.4 turbo...160bhp
surprised you managed to keep ahead
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Dum-Dum - 02-08-2013
Yeah 135bhp for the abarth 160 for the abarth SS but iirc they are a de tuned version of the grande punto abarth ss which is 180bhp so im guessing a 200bhp remap shouldnt be too hard.
I feel quite gay admitting that i would happily own one

Dumdum, you owned a cabby. We all know how gay you are.

For a minute i was genuinely going to correct you and say he still owns a cabby. Oh how i need to keep with the times!
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Dum-Dum - 02-08-2013
2 cabbys and a roadster

no 3 cabbys. THEY ARE THE SAME BLOODY CAR!!!!
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Scott - 02-08-2013
That car was about as much a roadster as my 6 is a phase 4

EFA
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Toms306 - 02-08-2013
I thought roadster just meant hardtop??
And phase 4 does exist!! Things changed at X reg, they just couldn't be arsed to change the outside lol.
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Dum-Dum - 02-08-2013
Nope, roadster and cabriolet are different, they are shown as such on the registration document.
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Piggy - 02-08-2013
stop arguing...Abarths are ace. /thread
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Just Sean - 02-08-2013
Bit not as ace as my 6!
How would I get on with an 04 civic type r?
I think it'll destroy me

RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Dum-Dum - 02-08-2013
Yeah youll just about beat a type r but not by alot (also faster than integras)
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Scott - 02-08-2013
We're talking up to legal speeds here by the way. From what I've read about people comparing them on drag strips/track days, the CTR will start to break away when into triple figures. Before that it's pretty damn even.
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Just Sean - 02-08-2013
Interesting. He's got a mugen air intake or whatever. BT other than that standard. I've got bigger balls than him tho

Agreed with this
Unless the type R owner gets on Vtec then the entire world id basically f*cked!
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - sam - 02-08-2013
The 500 abarths are quick I was chasing one once and had to let off as it looked like it was going to roll over :S made me earlly for work for once but the fuel gauge wasnt happy
RE: almost had an incident in he 6. - Just Sean - 03-08-2013
