Fiat 500 Abarth SS Gives Mini Cooper S Italian Job

If the rumors are true and Fiat does bring the Fiat 500 stateside we hope it brings this, the 160 HP Fiat 500 Abarth SS.

Looks like we'll see Fiat 500s built state-side in the near future, along with a couple other small cars and Alfa Romeos as well.

Chrysler and Fiat make it official
