I have the same "complaint"
I have the same "complaint" as several other posters. It was extremely difficult to find a 6 speed Classic anywhere in my area. They were several of the more expensive, loaded Abarths and Lussos with AUTOMATIC transmission. I mean, come on people. I'm a "senior citizen" on a budget (which I blew), but I found a Classica 6 speed about 75 miles away in West Palm Beach and drove down and test drove it. Bought it the next day, although I didn't get much of a deal. I was ready for another small sports car since I ditched my 2000 Miata back in 2011. Anyway, I'm extremely pleased with my car. Of course there are a couple things, like the chincy sunvisors and the (in my opinion) low quality of the stereo, and the excessive noise at highway speeds (70ish), I'm still very pleased with the styling, ride, power, and even the gas mileage, which is 30+ with mostly city driving. It just turned over the first 1,000 miles, and I'm getting used to the tiny bit of hesitation in the turbo. The majority of the time, I rarely notice it. The second it kicks in, man, it's like a rocket. I'm looking forward to seeing more on the road. Good luck with a fantastic little car. Thanks for KEEPING it little. Put more brochures in the dealerships. I NEVER GOT ONE! Finally, if fat people can't fit, they need to lose weight!
