Have a base fiat 500 rental car in America right now and maybe it's just the north american build but I'm not impressed. Space inside is fine for me but the steering feels really vague and floaty and oh god the engine. The American model has this NA 1.4L engine that coupled with the auto transmission is so insanely gutless and laggy and it sounds terrible to boot.

I'm driving on all of these great windy mountain roads wishing I had my polo with me
