abarth.... i guess it's in sega gt 2002 
That white OTS weighed about 1800lbs(with driver + a full tank of gas) and had well over 180hp. Not bad for a little car in the 70's...

In the 60s & 70s Abarth built some really fast little Fiats, real pocket rockets. I knew a guy back in the 70s who used to race them, fast for their size. I also had a Abarth exhaust on a MGA I owned, really put out a nice sound.

Nice pic of that old Abarth.
Most Abarth's SUCK. Of course that's more the fact that they are Fiats then anything else. Abarth did make some nice F1 style race cars back in the 70's. The one car that makes everyone wonder about the guy's sanity is the Fiat 500 conversion...where they had to prop up the deck lid to hold the engine.
Intresting cars in a sick, morbid sort of way. I knew a guy who had a Fiat and an Abarth conversion. Plus Abarth made mufflers for VW's as well.
Plus I like to say it. Cmon try it!
Abarth Abarth Abarth Abarth Abarth!
