New Addition; This Makes Two

[Nightshift]

Been a little over a month, purchased a 2012 Pop 500C. It's not fast by any means but a fun little runabout.
Purchased from the local Lamborghini dealer it's known as the Po'Man's Lambo...
Incredibly strong deal; there was some very minor body damage which I've had repaired.
Installed mods; it's already seen the 17" EU Petals and currently running the 16" Abarth mesh set.
Swapped out the stockshift knob for an Abarth.
Upcoming mods:
This weekend; Abarth struts with Madness 1.4" springs.
Considering another Euro+ Drive or the RRM Performance package.
I have an interest in a complete shifter swap; TWM(?)...
OEM fog light kit.
I'm looking for suggestions on air intakes.

Congrads on your purchase. Great looking Fiat. Having 2 in our family sure helps to keep the peace between the wife and I.

I thought you had the suspension done already, something must've come up, maybe looking for some new rims for the Fiat...or the Acura...or the truck, LOL!

FWIW the 16" mesh wheels look better on that particular car due to the color of the car and those rims. As far as intakes go, well, I'd check out the K&N typhoon. I know we have our vendors here and they have quality pieces but for the non-turbo 1.4L it might be available and its always been a clean install according to my buddy Hectour who installed those on previous Honda's.

I had a pesky little sinus infection that slowed my stroll.. lol
I did install the spare tire kit.
I think the 'C' is going to get the Turismos and the Petals will go back under the 'T'.
Leaning toward the RRM set up, going talk to Bryan/NGEN and Joseph/Madness and see what they suggest.

congrats on number 2!

Congrats, nice Fiats.

Congrats! I recently became a member of the two-owner club as well after buying my wife a 2015 Pop with 20K on the odo for $9300 and 31 months still left on the warranty. She loved the red/vanilla combo so it took me awhile to find one that met the criteria along with a clean history, one-owner, records, etc. She calls it her "four wheeled Vespa." Despite it being worlds away from my '13 snortin' hamster, it remains a Fiat tried and true. It might be low on balls compared to my Abarth but it's still a hoot to drive....and that turning radius is crazy.

Congrats! Isn't it fun??!
I've been playing with it, added some mods. It's by no means the 'shoe box on fire' my T is but it's too much fun to drive...
It's been lowered, has an AFE intake, and just installed a TWM short shifter.
It looks like the Euro+Drive is going to be the way to go; not seeing too much out there for the NA 500.
I had an opportunity to swap in a full sport Turbo interior; but I think I'm going to leave it as is. The cream and red tend to grow on you, it's just 'cute'.
The Turbo front seats are more comfortable; I almost did it but then I'd have to change all the peripherals to give it a true 'sport' interior.
Endless fun....

Nice cars. The cool thing about the Pop is that you can regularly get to redline without going to jail, unlike it's souped up cousins.

I thought about buying some goodies for the wife's automatic 500 but I've decided to leave it bone stock save for a better air filter. I like how it makes my Abarth feel even crazier after tooling around town in the POP. I get back into my car and it feels like a mini-Huayra

I'm really happy with the AFE intake, as weak as the NA 1.4 is it made a noticeable difference. It's not annoyingly loud; has a nice little growl to it when you get on it, bought it off Amazon for $345 shipped then saw it the next day on Madness for less including shipping.
Euro+Drive is next; not sure sooner or later...
Bryan (NGEN) has a Turbo interior for sale, I may bite. The T's seats would definitely be a plus.
Changing the dash peripherals from white to black is my only concern, could get spendy...
Tho they may not look bad in white against the seats.

Planning to put mileage on the T this week, since I bought the C it's been around the block a few times.

How do you like your Vogtland Springs on your T?
Did you do just the springs or did you swap out the shock (or strut is it), too?

Any chance it made for a smoother ride on the stock butt high T?
