Another Californian...

Hello fellow 500 enthusiasts, my name is Michael. And I have a problem of wanting things I can't have... the Abarth 500. All my friends are fed up with my constant obsession. I have been following the 500 well before it's launch date July 4th. After I heard the new of the Chrysler-Fiat alliance, I realized my goal of owning a 500 became much easier. One reason why I love the 500 is that it has so much appeal. And it is a car that you could afford, and afford to maintain. So bottom line, my doppelganger somewhere in Europe is driving a Funk White Abarth 500 with red stripes, and ESSEESSE kit lol. I look forward to my time here!

Thanks Cadbury! A doppelganger is a look-a-like, or someone who looks like you. For instance, if your out and about and you see someone who looks like someone you know. And you want to say Hi, until you realize it it's their doppelganger.

And to Lefteris, in a weird way you are I work at Blockbuster and it looks like you parked outside a video rental store. I'm going to show my friends the picture. :icon_thumright:

G'day 500! I know how you feel, I also want an Abarth but it looks like they will not be selling them in my part of the world :(

Hopefully the Chrysler-Fiat alliance works out :icon_thumleft:

What's a doppelganger :confused:
Never heard about that before, but it seems that's another German word (like Blitzkrieg or Kindergarten) that has found it's way into the US... Doppelgänger would be double-goer in English...

And what is wrong with an ordinary 500:mad::mad::infuriato::infuriato:

As Lefteris said... ordinary 500s don't exist... :)
