and, you can get a 6 speed manual trans w/the dart. 5 speed only w/the fiat. i was really wanting an abarth 500, but the dart seems so much of a better deal - i can live w/a giulietta that's been hit w/an ugly stick. $27k for the abarth is a bit of a joke... the abarth 500 should be ~$20k, and the standard 500's should be ~$12k-$15k. yust my humble opinion. :>)
