Thinking about trading in the CR-Z for a Fiat 500 Abarth, thoughts?

I like the color.... would look great with white wheels also. Just upgraded my exhaust. Axlebacks were nice growl but not loud enough. Change the resonators to an h pipe..... my gawd! If sound is what your looking for and thinking of both. I’d recommend the resonator delete. Made a bigger difference and then you can see if you wanna open her up. Just got a CAI. It’s an airaid and the filter comes with its own enclosure. Might make one for yours.

Well the axle-backs I've seen for this car are loud enough because they're straight pipe, LOL. I'll figure something out but the intake is certainly going to happen. The aFe intake is actually made by Takada, has their emblem on it, kinda confused there. As far as the resonator and switching to an H-pipe, doesn't apply to an I4, your in V8 mode, LOL.

That AirRaid intake looks incredible

Ok, for anyone interested, here's the story on the Abarth going away. So about 2 weeks ago, while dropping my daughter off, my car threw a code (P0420) which was some low efficient cat.

To quote Bob Seger...."turn the page!"

I had to turn the Page on my S4 due to Cat failure. Long story short, I burned them up with the power I added but cats on them go even stock. I wasn't about to put the 12hrs labor and $1,600 parts into it only to have either a raspy cat-less car or a repair that would burn up again. I simply reset the codes and kept my foot out of it until it was out of my name and I was onto something else. For me the Red Sport is an inbetween car. Not sure what's next but it's either an M5'ish or a higher end Electric. Not sure.

Read to tea leaves for sure and enjoy the new ride!
 
M5 is a monster, maybe find a low mileage E39, they are so nice and hold their value!
 
Garage sale time...

Well, I sold my 3 season tires and wheels a week before I got the Elantra Sport and just this past week I sold the intake I never had installed as well as the WeatherTechs. The guy who bought the intake and mats is one of our customers and I'm going to see if he wants my other custom oil fill cap, same company that makes the intake but I have some other "freebies" for him as well like vinyl overlays for the emblem and steering wheel center.

Cool, it’s great re-cooping some of that mod money.
I got a lot back from stuff off the Mini.
 
So far I've sold 2 of my custom oil caps and the OEM leather shiftknob and boot, small but its something. Its basically paying for a couple items I picked up on Ebay, i.e. charcoal cabin filter, longer life battery for my Worx hydroshot (have an SUV now to maintain) and a pair of Veloster Turbo badges...trust me, I know what I'm doing here, LOL!
 
I need to stop reading about stuff you buy...it is counter productive to my bank account sir.

So if you’d like to put this on hold that’d be great
