Not bad for newbie in the market! My experience in our 500 with 5000 miles has been terrifc, so I am not surpised.

Gee I didn't realize it was General Motors that linked up with Fiat!!!???

and they are 2012 models, not 11s. I don't agree with the "smartcar look" statement though

And can one be had for under 18K?

Nothing like automotive writers who are even close to experts! There are three 4 versions sold here currently. The Pop, for $15,500, the Sport, for $17,500, and the Lounge, for $19,500. No price haggling. There is a Cabriolet, but I don't know what the price is, and in first quarter, 2012, we will get a 185 HP Abarth version.

The cars are extremely well equipped and compete very well in their class.

15,500 for the Pop or 2k more for the Sport sounds pretty good to me. But a cabrio would be fun. And then again, waiting for an Abarth....

Must......Stop........Now..........rrrrmpph.

And there are rumors that this version of the Abarth will be available in late 2012 or early 2013. This puppy, at 264 HP, weighs in at only 8.3 lbs/per HP, and supposedly has been timed at 4.0 seconds flat, 0-100 kph (62 mph).
