Pretty cool ride. I'm suprised you didn't go fo the Dart (basically an Alfa with a Fiat motor). I know why you did it but I bet it was still rough parting with the Abarth!

I definitely miss the Abarth. I didn't want to do it, but I didn't have much choice. I looked at the Dart and felt like I got more car with the Avenger with the rebates offered. Not that the dart wasn't nice, but they didn't offer the V6 only the 4 cylinder engines, and the Dart was more expensive for the same similar options. All in all I think I did OK. :)

Definitely a lot less pain mostly from no shifting. The Abarth kept the shoulder aggravated all the time. I would have pain for anywhere from 45 minutes to 2 hours after driving it. It just got to be to much to bear, so it had to go. :)
