Hi,

I thought I'd introduce myself. I'm Matt, I live in South Wales in th UK. I've placed an order for an Abarth 500 on the 24th January and was told it could take up 12 weeks to arrive. I hope it comes quicker than that!

It's going to replace my current car, a Hyundai Coupe V6. I'm hoping I won't miss the power too much.

The spec is going to be Bossa Nova White, red leather, blue & me, auto dipping mirror, climate control, xenon lights, alloy gear knob, 17 inch Petal Alloys, red side stripes and a red chequered roof. I can't wait for it to arrive. :D

Your future Abarth sounds very nice. In the U.S. we are barely getting regular 500 models. The Abarth is about a year away.

Hi Matt!

This is GREAT news!

I've only ever order a brand new car, built to order instead of picking one off the lot, one time. The waiting is what kills youlol

At any rate, hello, and...
