Tiers already balanced. In what way? Did he just look at the balance weights on the wheel or did he actually spin them on his machine?
 

Ok... When I did all the work on the front end, I brought the front tires to get balanced. The tire shop told me they were already balanced. The car...

It sounds like it could be a transmission issue or a problem from the car sitting for a while. It's a good idea to have a mechanic check it out.

      Well, my car didn't sell on eBay, which is just as well because I didn't want to give up that press kit! LOL I don't really have the patience to sell it privately so I'll trade it in. It will be a nice car for someone and I'll save the sales tax and get to keep the wheels. That will help make up for getting wholesale for the car.

        Saving the sales tax is a real bonus if you are really getting wholesale for your car. Trade in value at my local Fiat dealer is $3000 below wholesale. He even wants to stick the savings I would get on the sales tax in his pocket!

        I get so much attention every time I shop for groceries and I think that is where to sell it. Window sticker goes back on the window showing original price and all the stuff these cars come with and a for sale sign on two side windows with a low retail price and cell phone number. Then go shopping and you may have a showing or two before you leave. Shop a couple of times a day. You could also park at a visible spot near a Fiat dealer on a Saturday.

          I don't have a buy it now price, but if I get $19,000 for it the wheels and the press release go with it. I saw someone had an offer of $18,500 so when you factor: the wheels ($1200), the Prima wheels, the press kit (a couple of hundred dollars), the free maintenance/warranty, all the trim upgrades (black roof, red stitching, gloss trim, Xenon lights, shifter) plus the collectors factor, I think it's priced right.
          I've never heard of "gloss trim" what is it.

              I got a laugh out of that one! Those are great ideas.

                My plan is to change the Abarth window trim to the gloss or maybe carbon.

                  I've seen pics of the carbon and they look great. If your planning on adding other carbon pieces as well, that route would be +++
