Hello,

Just seen this, It's the New Fiat Punto Abarth, Will be launched in Geneva.

1.4 Turbo engine, 155 BHP, 6-speed manual gearbox, Electrical power steering with a Sport mode, just PERFECT in everyway, and a 180 BHP version is coming soon, This is gonna be fast...

let the photos speak now

which photos??:confused:

I would like to give my opinion but i cant see the photos :confused: sounds pretty good though

Oh, sorry, the photos r showing fine here, I'll upload again

Edit, Photos should be working fine now!

Should be cracking car!

hmm not sure about that, it looks ok, but I prefer the new Fab. Still if they're putting decent engines in it could be good fun to drive.

that looks nice (a lot nicer than the new fabia) and should be pretty quick too

It looks fantastic , just hope the performance and handling is up to scratch!

If it is light it should be a pretty darn nippy car

Sorry, dosn't really 'do it' for me. I've never really liked the look of any of the Puntos'. Clever first picture though.

Very tasty, and about time a proper Abarth came out.

Looks fab, I hope it drives as well as it looks. It would be even nicer if they made it a bit rough around the edges to drive, if you know what I mean.

Know what you mean, although I doubt they will do that with the Punto given the competitive segment that it is in - what we really need is for them to get a hairy Panda Abarth out

If it wasn't slow and Italian - i'd buy one....!!!!

What sort of price are we looking at?

Looks are a bit OTT for my liking... Too ch@vvy, dare I say...

Alledgedly on it's way, using the same powerplant.

If that is right it could be highly entertaining with 180bhp and weighing c. 975kg (which is what the 100hp weighs)

Well I like it on looks at least

The 155 version should be a GTi, Sporting or whatever with the Abarth name saved for the 180.

I like how it looks.

Imagine an Abarth 500/Trepiuno with around 150bhp, now that would be fun.

Hmm that has a bit of a Fiat 500 feel about it somehow - looks like it could be an interesting car

It is the new 500. looks really cute as a convertible, although the hatchback has a little of the Micra about it

Anybody remember the real 500 Abarth? With the oil cooler on the front and the bonnet permanently propped open?

This is a replica - couldn't find a good pic of a real one:

Edit: linked image replaced with smaller attachment.

Obviously I don

This car had 26 BHP and a top speed of 118 km/h...
