Fiat 500 news - Check the Opening - 2008

If a 135bhp with turbo just isn't enough for your Fiat 500, then you need worry no longer.

Fiat's tuning arm Abarth is due to release this 500 Opening Edition that cranks up the power to 160bhp, lowering the 0-60 time by a full half a second to a rather impressive 7.4 seconds.

And although Opening Edition may seem to imply that it's a convertible, it isn't, but you can get the Campovolo gray with a red and white checkered roof if you fancy it. Or you can just get it all in pearly white (which we like better).

You'll also be treated to 17in alloys in titanium or white, plus red brake calipers, tinted glass, a serial number plate and some new badges.

However, if this has caught your eye, you'd better be quick about it as they're only going to make 100 of these Abarthed up Editions.

Did we say that we like the look of it a lot?
