Great alternative to the mini cooper S but both cars are FWD unfortunately. Cool cars nonetheless. Just happy to see manufacturers open to bringing smaller and smaller cars to the US. Just hope the US people are ready to buy them.

But in the end I don't think there'll be many people cross shopping the Abarth 500 and FT-86. Two very types of cars with very different images.
