More proof that people with money will buy anything :suicide:

No doubt, especially when the Mazdaspeed3 and GTI are so much cheaper. I love the Abarth, but I only love it for the same price as a MS3. Anything more and I'd get the Mazda. A GTI killer in the U.S. may end up giving Fiat the credibility they need to expand their offerings.

^^ $30,000 is a heck of a lot of money to average folks. Where you come from, a $30,000 car may be considered cheap, but most people in the U.S. barely take that home in a year after taxes.

Combine a light clutch with DBW throttle and it becomes nearly impossible to get a good feel for it. I still have trouble with smooth shifts in my 330i.

There is nothing inherently wrong with DBW. There are some really dull/laggy implementations on the market (VW, :argh:), but there are some that are very good.
