- For this video while on a road trip from Rochester,NY to Miami Florida and then back-Jon decided to take a pit stop in here in Richmond to let me review his badass little Fiat Abarth! It was a great opportunity to drive something very different and see how it felt driving this little go kart around in the rain. As always, thanks for watching and stay awesome.

There are so many reasons to get one if you're an auto enthusiast. Just so many...
-that awesome exhaust
-good Italian styling
-great interior design
-can be modded to be a rocket
-the most fun you can have without breaking your wallet
-isn't too expensive to fix
-racing heritage
-the looks on the faces of ricers and Mustang drivers when you smoke them = priceless
Bentley Mulsanne i know i want one over my lancer i have now!
They also depreciated ridiculous amounts over the last couple of years.
I’ve beaten dozens of these in my fa5 all I have is fbo no tune act clutch and lightweight flywheel
don’t get me wrong, i love me some cinquecento abarth action and i’ve even considered getting one, but unless it’s running fbo’s and like a stage 3+ tune w/ ethanol blend you are beating no mustang in a 500 Abarth.
now on a tight B road thats a different story. you can probably outhandle most large muscle cars, so you got that going for you.
@@mattilinan I’ve actually beaten a couple of mustangs with my abarth and my mods are coilovers, front strut bar, gfb diverter valve, catless Down pipe, upgraded coils, intake the go pedal and a piggyback tune, every mustang that’s challenged me has lost from a roll that is never went from a dig
That little Fiat though!
Thanks for watching!
Great video
Your awesome man! keep it up :)
BTW: Badass OUTRO
Hehe sewing machine shredding tires xD. Not the type of car I'd get, but they always make my smile when I see them. And concerning the wheel alignment...Fiat seems like it's still hunted by its bad history of build quality...unfortunately.
And just like Parry said....badass OUTRO! (Looks like Mr. Patterson pulled the After Effects Card ;) )
Great video, since you did the Fiat. It would be cool to see a Turbo Beetle
Damn, that new outro is absolutely stunning David, keep it up man, your work is remarkable!
Nice... Now this is a review. Glad to see people really starting to appreciate the Abarth for what it is. We drove it last year, posted it on my channel last year and honestly almost took it with us as our support vehicle for the Italian Stampede in Cali last year. its roomy and to be honest it kept up surprisingly well with some of the exotics on the run. Few mods and BAM, what a fun car. Great review as usual bar none. Kudos.
Thanks DoctaM3! Official car of the Goldrush rally!
I had a Fiat Abarth for a couple days this last summer. It's nothing I would ever buy but WOW. what an incredible car! It has a lot of go for such a tiny thing! Lots of fun to drive!
DoctaM3 in da house!
***** It was so awesome to see these booking on #GoldRush and #FuelRun. They are so much fun!
"The more you hear it, the more you can't unsee it" - David Patterson 2014 -
Great filming, editing and review as always David! Thanks for the mention too! Jon is a cool guy and that little Fiat was hilarious fun. I'm glad we both got to experience it! The new outro is sweet too! I'm excited to see the beautiful crane footage once you start using it as well.
P.S. Sad to see that there's a Subaruwrxfan hate club on here but hey, guess you can't please everybody :)
You guys are both awesome! I love both of your videos!!! Ignore the haters man, they're all jealous you guys are going places doing something you love to do. Keep up the good work guys, and happy belated New Years haha, wishing you both much success this year and tons of luck on all your endeavors! Been a fan of you guys for a while now! :)
Both great reviewer's in my opinion.Don't see why people need to hate on either reviewer's.
No need to be petty, not everyone's gonna like you. This is the internet.
I mean everyone else is being petty as well for sure, but you're a CZcamsr, so just deal with it, shit.
Hey man, screw them. You and David both review in very different ways, so some might enjoy you more than david, or the other way around, and some may enjoy both equally, like I do. Keep up the great work!
I've owned quite a few performance cars over the years - three Porsche 911s (two were 930 turbos), a Jag XK8, a Triumph GT6+, a couple of Dodge Stealths, and several others. My current Abarth (with a Magneti Marelli ECU piggyback, cold air injection and Forge blow off valve) is brutally quick and has been the most fun to drive of any car I have ever owned. I see you smiling in your video. You can't help but love this car.
I love little cars like this, they're just fun to drive.
A friend of mine, is owning one of these beast things and we replaced the turbo with another bigger one (including sport exhaust system by akrapovic) and let the Abarth chipping up, cause of the turbo... now it has about 250-300 hp and it feels like its coming right out of the hell - if you open the channel of the bypass air in take system, the air flushes extremly loud out of the "airbox" - Abarth 500s make so much fun!
Big thanks for reviewing - thumbs up, keep it on !
And sorry for bad english, still learning :D
Wife had a 500 Turbo with the stick. Black with blood red leather. My God what a terrific car! So much character and a blast to drive.
David you are a true inspiration for a young man like myself. I want to get into video shooting, and hopefully get into the car scene as well. You break down the cars you review in a perfect way. You have a great talent, and every time I see you have a new video up I watch it ASAP. Also love how consistent you are with your videos. Props to you brother!
Look at how it tries to look mad. It's so cute!
LOL Like looking at a gf
@ThatDudeinBlue thanks for doing awesome videos! It was great to see a quality review done on the Abarth, I just bought a 13k '13 Abarth 3 days ago and I'm very happy with it and a hell of an upgrade coming from a Yaris with bolt ons.
"You are seriously driving an awesome little go-kart" hell yeah! Beautiful review, very well done. Very cool mods there too, I am going to look into them esp. the exhaust. I have a 2017 Abarth, white w/ red trim, manual trans. Yes, it fogs up real quickly. You are having so much fun at 10:03! Thanks for sharing, man. You did great!
That's a lot of power and torque for that little car. They sound great.
I remember when your channel barely had 10,000 subscribers and you were saying how amazing it was to have 10,000. Now you are getting close to 200,000!!!! That's amazing buddy!!!! Congrats and please keep up these awesome videos.
Great Review David! Been watching your channel for a bit now. Keep it up man! Love your insight on cars and your videos about you.
Great review, and nice upgraded outro. Your video's seem more and more polished and you fine tune your craft. Can't wait to see what other things the new year brings for you sir. Keep it up.
Love the exhaust note of these things, it sounds like the 03-05 SRT-4. Just AWESOME!!!
Awesome review. I love the 500, Ive had a lot of cars, and this car I think is my favorite along side the 2002 Audi S4 I had. I know that might sound nuts, but this car is great! Thanks again:)
Great review. Such a cool little car. Makes me miss my gd3 fit. Love the outro on the video. Great work David!
Fancy new outro! I like it!
I gotta say watching you videos makes me want to get my car!!!, 3g 2004 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT. Ever driven one? :D
Awesome review. I don't have anything else to say about it.
The new outro on the other hand, threw me off even though I knew from your Facebook page that you'd have a new one. Big and great change. Loving it, keep it up David!
Super cool, love the review. I actually really like these, as close to a go-kart as you can get. The aftermarket support and the fan base is amazing too.
I saw you at the meet this sunday, I was that asian guy in the leather jacket... fan of your mustang, and when that viper pulled up, omg. I cried a little... Gorgeous. Love how you're bringing the community together, hoping to drive up in a 335i one day. (:
great review David :) and I really like what you have done with the ending scene or whatever to call it!
I freakin love these! I test drove one. Definitely getting one in the near future!
THANK YOU DAVID I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR EVER FOR THIS REVIEW
YES! another awesome video by my favorite car guy! love you david! so glad there are such positive car guys out there :)
After upgrading the turbo, ECU, exhaust,short shifter, and injectors Dyno @310.3bhp. Didn't think this car would be this reliable.
I recommending getting a used one. Mine was 15k with 18k miles on it. Running about a car length at the strip better than the 5.0coyote mustang. You gotta test drive these things major attention.
i love what u did with the ending, the video is a lot cleaner. It feels complete.
Dang, that outro is AWESOME! Great job, David!
Daayyyuuummm! Awesome little car, and I love the new outro!
I think the 5th cup holder is a French fry holder
To hold your fries while you corner at high speeds
AbarthJMS definitely
Black Soul dc5 yeah where is this 5th cup holder??????
Great review David, that's one awesome little car. Also, I'm digging the new outro.
Woah. David. I need to let the classiness waft over me with that end segment. Very nice!
Just got here from the stream. Just keep in mind that for every one troll with a twitch account, there are hundreds if not thousands of us that love you and will continue to support you no matter what.
Hey David. Nice review. I love the outro, good job. And keep it up
Nice vid man! subbed about 9 months ago and haven't missed a single video. Keep up the good work!
The Abarth looks so good in black. The scorpion badges are sick.
I own a 2015 Abarth. This car is boss
Have you had any problems? Looking to get one.
Likewise, just got one... is THE car!
132k miles on mine :)
@@braydencrawford3048 no issues from daily driving. i auto-crossed mine for 2-3 years and it did well, but because of the autocross i used aftermarket wheels, lugs, etc and there is wear and tear on mine not from daily driving. but highly recommended the car is too fun even just driving around normal streets in daily life hahah. you dont even need to make any mods on it for racing, just race tires. its basically stock ready for racing. maybe maybe you could switch to better brake pads if you are racing.
@@hewasdeadwhenigotthere46 heheh let me know when the engine goes. i'm hoping it will make it to 200k
LOVE the new outro bro keep it up!
love what you did at the end!
These cars are everywhere in the UK, especially the stock/base models, very popular with the daddys girls
John Higgins I live in Italy so I see like ten or more of them every day
John Higgins i mean I see like ten abarths, if you are talking about the base model 500 I see hundreds of them every day
I dont see many abarths in scotland and it's usually guys driving them, the base 500 though screams of daddy's girl.
I love the outro man!
Keep up the great videos!!
:)
that intro was awesome! definitely one of the best of 2015
Love these things! That exhaust, though. Wowzers!
SWEET!!!! ive had eyes on these fora while super awesome the first time i get to see it in depth is here! thanks a bunch =)
ThatDudeinBlue That new outro was such a surprise, keep up the badass videos.
Wow never been on a video this early. Love your videos and if you ever have the chance review a 2014 civic si sedan plz
I love your channel David! It's very funny to watch your videos in x1.5 speed
I like the exhaust note on these cars, even stock. It sound like a much bigger engine without beeing ricy or so. Other hot-hatchbacks with 2 liter engines sound like electric cars without mods....
Sloppy seconds haha. I'm kidding man, you're videos have been insane lately! Great job dude and I hope to hang out when you come to Florida!
I fell in love with this little monster when i discovered it back in 09 and got one as soon as i could in 2014. It's not the fastest or the most nimble by any means, but it is exciting. It's a sense of occasion to drive it. What really did it for me was driving through a crowd at a local Cars and Coffee, people gawking over Lambos, Ferraris, etc, that was so dense that GTRs and the like couldn't get through but my little Abarth split the crowd with people breaking necks to see what was causing such a ruckus all commenting about the noises it was making. Few cars, especially for less than $80k+, can do such a thing.
The ending credit.. freaking amazing work. I only wish my Vlogs were as good as yours. Good.. no, great work David. ThatDudeinBlue Keep the videos coming.
The turbo sounds like their is a little train in the car whistling its train horn :D
love the extro there David nicely done!
I also love how you can easily pick one of these up for less than 12k in new condition. Atleast in Portland
love these Abarth 500 and Abarth 500c, driven one and they are dam super light fun cars that handles like go karts. im considering one next year :D
that outro ThatDudeinBlue ... freakin epic!
Loving the outro David! :) thumbs up!!
P.s. I bought two of your shirts!
Ayyyyeee, Rochester, NY shout-out. You would love to drive some of the cars here, you might have heard of places like Roc Euro, redi imports, Little Speedshop or STM. Anywho, another great review man, keep up the good work.
Jon showing some of the Rochester car scene! Can't wait to shoot this little thing later this year!
That new ending doe!!! Nice David!!!
Sadly that little shit sounds better than the ecoboost mustang.. shame really.
Awesome review as always! I gotta ask, how are the Eibach springs treating the smurf? I'm considering them for my VW Rabbit.. Keep up the great work!
Love the outro! Good work!
D'awwww, it looks so cute and sounds so gnarly. Keep up the reviews!
Hey David I just watched your stream.. Don't listen to those people that try and make you think your videos aren't good because the truth is those people just simply want to be you.
Keep up the great work. :D
Love it man, it looks great sounds great and is definetly a unique car. :) Keep up the great work. :)
new outro is badass!
I've always wanted a go in one of these, look like so much fun
dat new outro doe lol awesome job david!
You make the sickest intros on CZcams!!!!!!!!!! Holy amazing!!!!!!!!
David I know the feeling, I got to sit inside one and I didn't believe I would fit not even feel comfortable in it due to me having long legs. I fit inside the thing like a glove and even drive it and it was fun
ThatDudeinBlue sick ass outro, keep up the good work!!!!!
Love the new outtro!
I'm from about 20 min's south of Rochester, strange I have yet to see this around. Very nice review.
Good job! i did enjoy the image quality!
top vid dude and that outro awesome
Diggin' the new outro dude!
Love the new ending type stuff thing
Great review, but I liked it mostly for that outro! That was awesome man, was that done in After Effects?
Such an awesome outro!!!
AWESOME new outro!
The intro is amazing David. Can I ask what lense and camera you use if it has changed from your previous video. I love how the water looks on the car! Great Video!
Your new outro is fire !!
Love that new outro david
Turbo sounds are awesome!! Always liked the abarth!!
THAT OUTRO THOUGH
DOPE! ThatDudeinBlue
I have a 2012 Sport that I have invested almost $10K CAD in aftermarket parts, they are a blast to drive and I've been doing the show circuit with mine. I'm from Prince Edward Island Canada and there's a total of about 5 500's in the entire province. 500Madness and Road Race Motorsports out of California are amazing tuners for these cars.
awesome review and outro
Awesome to see this car again after subaruwrxfan's channel. It's such a sick little beast of a car! :)
That outro :o ! Nice work
So much hype for such a little car! :D
These things sound great even stock!
Great outro man!
Wow! I knew i saw and heard this car at school last year! I just want sure until you said he brought it down to Miami, Fl.
Thanks!
im liking the new outro!
I haven't even fully watched this..and i love these little things.. but you still need to get some old school toyota reviews ;)
