Wait a second: a Fiat 500 is cute. ;-) I have not read about any problems with the engine bay getting wet, but don't really plan on having it out in the rain. I will check into it though

 

This is a 2011 it has the updated ECU, but I'm not sure about the shifter cables. The cables seem to be good but not great. I will be looking at some new intake and exhaust options. Would like to get some more power and a bit more growl out of the engine. It is hard to beat teh Aston exhaust note.
thanks for the advice

 

Congratulations. I drove an Evora when it first came out, and I thought it was very impressive. I didn't love the gearbox feel, and more sound would be required -- which you are already looking into. But the ride was truly amazing for what is a truly great handling car, and the steering was fantastic -- full of feel and precise. Enjoy!

 

They have made some changes in the gearbox since the release edition Evora, much improved but still no what I would call great. Will be working on the sound over the next few months. Oh, and thank you for not calling it cute ;-)

 

But it IS Cute.!!

 

Stop it , stop it. NOT CUTE!!!! '-). well, OK maybe a bit cute, but in a very TUFF way.

 

Ok it looks a bit..... froggy... I think, short - stocky and fat around the belly button.

 

See! Looks a bit like the old Frog Eyes.. yes??
