[Abarth 124]

So the dealership nearby me just posted this article regarding the abarths. It states an expected release of spring 2017... Hoping this is wrong because I was not wanting to wait that long. Next time I stop in I will check with them to see where they are getting this information.

so many abarth threads..

There is a configurator up in the UK. Unsure if the same options make it to the US

Mileage may vary.

also found this starting point. From here you can launch the configurator in many European countries

The European configurators have my exact color & trim match. Oh please, oh please, offer us the same.

Most of the features seem to be pretty consistent universally/worldwide, though I cant get the UK version to have the LED headlights/Visibility package like the Italian version does.

Are English speaking people not allowed to have LED headlights without the full luxury package??

I had to keep going back and forth because I wasn't sure if I wanted the red or the white... decisions decisions... this is a toughie

If demand is high enough then that might just happen and if this forum is any indication of that, then our chances are good

Earliest possible time I see this happening is with the next model year, hopefully.

Check out the video.. AWESOME!

The website says the first 2500 abarths will be numbered. Hopefully these make it to the US!

And checkout the other video on the offical facebook page. Posted today 7/28:

US configurator works but doesn't have anything about the black hood and decklid (extra cost or not) or Mopar cat-back exhaust (which I imagine will be a dealer-installed accessory).

Austin TX Fiat claims September/October.
I'm not waiting until Spring 2017 for a new car. If it's not the 124, I'll happily get a ND Club model.
