Just picked the car up a few hours ago. It's a 2012 Sport edition in blue. Still trying to figure out all the features of the car, best way to organize my trunk area (okay so not much there to organize) and basically feel my way around the new car. I had interest in the 500 when I heard it was coming to the US and then we rented one on vacation back in November. That right there sealed the deal and I wanted one. After test driving other cars the Fiat 500 won out and now it sits in the driveway! Looking forward to learning much from all of you. Jason

Welcome, Jason! You wil have fun! Is it manual or automatic?

Thank you Peipster! I had to go with the manual. The car we rented was auto and I liked the car a lot, test drove the manual.... LOVED IT.

Congrats! Now go out and kick the crap out of it, it's ok, it's under warranty.

Congrats and welcome to the forum, for the trunk I suggest the liner from WeatherTech, I have one and it is perfect!

 

[Jayflap]

Thanks for the welcomes everyone!

Lorvar, I will get a bit more familiar before testing the warranty!! ;-)

Smark, thank you!

Kapium, hopefully I will see you around town! We make our way to Chicago often and a stop in Mt. Pleasant often happens either on the way down or back home!

Tweak, thank you I will check out the WeatherTech trunk liner!

In that event my car will be easy to spot; it looks exactly like yours but lowered and tinted.

Manual: so cool, so fun. Enjoy it. Listen to Lorvar and drive the crap out of it.
