"It's a Lamborghini AFFORDIABLO." - my rehearsed reply when asked what kind of car is it?
Lol
Lol
How the hell this comment doesn't have a million likes?
So you own one? is it reliable?
Lol
Doug, sometimes you say you're 6'3" and sometimes 6'4"....is that weather related?
Morning lenght.
Shoe thickness
i think it has to do with he has for breakfast
it changes depending on his feelings
It's the quirks of being Doug.
"Look at this line, now you can't unsee it."
-Well thanks for that...
hahahahah
The comment above yours is about Doug being on coke in this video. "Look at this line..." Lol
Yeah, I hadn't yet seen it before he pointed it the fuck out.
@Miles Unlike the Fiat 124, Jesus doesn't exist.
Sorry.
Ma che linea sempra una Barchetta di 124 cene solo una serie anni 70 e basta dopo solo scarse imitazioni
Doug is the type of guy who would say to his wife “I like your quirks and features

Doug the type of guy to never ask for likes, subscribers, never try to sell us stupid merch and never advertise on his channel. Great job dude.
Thank god he never advertises. For more of my thoughts on how he never advertises, please click the link below to read my column on autotrader.
HunterShows that's his own work! He doesn't promote products for money like others do!
HunterShows how easy would it be to make a video where he tells us what products he uses, what parts he buys, etc and make more in a video than most people make in a year?
I'm categorizing that under the "stupid merch." He's always shilling for manufacturers' upcoming cars. He will say it's all true, but some of these videos are more like infomercials.
he works for autotrader and i believe its part of his job so the youtube rev is just extra money
This car is having an identity crisis, mopar, mazda, abarth, so many fkn badges
It's a Fiat 124 Spider. Not too hard for most normal people.
Almost as many badges as POSER BMW "M" Trim cars !!!!!
Almost as many badges as POSER BMW "M" Trim Cars !!!!
This is another car where he complains about things but doesn’t try the fully loaded version. The guys car he used is pretty basic. You can get nav, led lights, drivers assist, record monza exhaust via mopar. That would fix most of his complains. Also it take many of the abarth 500 engine mods. So you can get 200hp Easy.
@Finn nice profile picture 👌
Did he just slide in calling it a 'Fiata'?
His 2019 Miata video is almost a play by play recap of this video. Down to bawking at the cup holders, turn signal volume and storage options.
Cory Norell thats just lazy writing
They’re nearly the same car
They're incredibly similar. No fault to Doug. Plus, he didn't invent Fiata. That's what it's called.
@@Me_Caveman equally, I believe. But the miata does have a couple things over this. Retractable hard top? Nice.
Yup.. literally the exact same review with a few alterations
Doug the type of guy to take the 124 to a Mazda dealership to get it fixed
I mean. they probably could
If it was the same engine, of course, but since it's not the same engine, 90% of the car is different. Even some cars that are exactly the same have difficulty servicing in a different brand. Here in my country, after Toyota stopped supporting the Toyota 86, many 86 owners had to use the Subaru dealership but since it wasn't a Subaru, they refused to do anything.
Thats a good one :)
Zsalt Itd probably be cheaper lol
Matte I work at a dealership and I can tell you that’s not how dealerships work. If you’re willing to pay the cash, they’ll fix your car. Unless it’s something with crazy tech like a new Mercedes or something.
Why does it always sound like you have something to say after 'oversteer' in your intro. Blink twice if you're in trouble, Doug. We got you.
MyFavorites791 I hate when he does that, he used to just stop talking and then continue the video but now it’s like he’s about to reveal the location of the holy grail but instead cuts it short
I think he's tired of the comments about him constantly saying to visit auto trader.com/oversteer for more of his thoughts. With him cutting it short there he's able to get less of that and/or virtually none of those types of comments.
Fun fact: this was originally supposed to be a revival of the Alfa Romeo Spider, but midway through production, Fiat-Chrysler's CEO Sergio Marchionne decided to keep the manufacturing of Alfa Romeo vehicles entirely in Italy, and so they decided to bring back the Fiat 124 name from the classic '60s car given that the company's previous roadster, the Fiat Barchetta, had gone out of production all the way back in 2006 and felt like a successor was needed. The Alfa Romeo Spider project ended up evolving into the 4C sports car, developed from a concept and built by Maserati, the luxury car division of Fiat.
"it's nice to have a big hazard lights in an Italian car."
I see what you did there Doug
I don't understand that
@@maxpoweroverdrive they break a lot as per the stereotype so you need them
@@Petrospect have you ever owned an Italian car?
@@maxpoweroverdrive i'm sure it depends on era brand and how the previous owner treated it so I don't really buy into that but nah. That's the joke and stereotype though
@@maxpoweroverdrive it's a stereotype. Some autoirony
Doug the type of guy who reviews a car with a t-shirt with a bicycle on it
Tkcb 2799 thats why he's the GOAT
Ruben Ortiz he eats grass?
At least he's only wearing one T-shirt in this video. Usually he has a second, slightly larger T-shirt on underneath for some inexplicable reason.
I’m guessing this review wasn’t done recently as temps outside are18 degrees
Doug my guy!
Doug the type of guy who bags on a cars infotainment's night mode during the day...
NismoPWNS Hahahahah I was just about to say that.
@James D
I have a Ram with the exact night mode and the night mode isn't so dim that you can't see it at night. The night mode is actually perfect in darj. Not too bright or dark. You see the night mode is actually made to be used at night not during the day in direct sunlight.
Dead 💀💀
My friend bought one, and I got to drive this car for a weekend. Let me tell you, this is a very fun and thrilling little car to toss around. The handling is precision sharp. The power delivery is thrilling and even scary at speed. The faster you go, the more this engine keeps pulling. The 6-speed manual is sublime, and it's fun to run through the gears. You ride very low to the ground. I would say the only negative is the interior space. I'm 5'9" and I adjusted my seat all the way back. Getting in and out requires a bit of contortion. I'd image if you're any taller than me, you're not going to be able to stretch your legs all the way out. Overall, a great sports car experience.
We have ones of these. Puts a smile on my face every time I see it and get in it. Had of for a little over two years and 16k miles. No issues, no problems...just real weekend fun.
I may just have to trade my Honda S2000 for one soon. I am getting older now and want a more compliant daily ride!
We have a 2018 one, red with the black stripe. Had it nearly 3 years now. Manual transmission. Yeah it's not winning any races, but who cares. It's a blast to drive and everyone asks what it is everywhere I go. I love it.
The trunk holds a surprisingly large amount. I can fit a full grocery cart in it; even more if I am alone and put stuff in the passenger seat.
dougs the kind of guy to use night mode during the day and then complain about not being able to see the screen..
slayerenji he's such an invasile
HAHAHAHAHA
I found this cringy as well. It was so blatantly obvious...
On another note I had a Mazda 3 and the screen brightness was linked to the headlights, making that brightness of the screen much more bearable at night, but Mazda didn't account for upcoming regulations mandating the use of lights even during daylight. I wish there was a switch like this one...
Doug's the type of guy to borrow a car from a viewer and first thing he does is smell the seat
Team Shmo 😂
Team Shmo Waiting for you on GT Sport!
your right XD
Team Shmo exactly
one of my first cars in '79, a '72 corolla, was owned by a female nurse that didn't shave her legs, blond leg hairs all over black carpet, gross! first thing was giving the car a once over with a shop vac!
i like the manual quick top better than electric one. lighter, faster, more reliable, cheaper, probably a lot cheaper to replace.
cuteshadowKIA yeah kinda agree
Facts
Looks more stylish than a miata though... if it's as light, can be quite fun propulsion drive to drift a little !
I can tell it's so easy to drift
Sometimes on lonley roads I really had fun
When you force him to he gently but his back out and let you control it so easely
It’s so fun I just bought one
@@leonardobeltran9348 you recommend? i have mini cooper s but i’m in love with this one
It should be also pretty easy to tune for way more power. I've seen some italians tune that engine for 360-400 horsepower in a 500 abarth.
If you leave it at stock that engine is pretty bulletproof with given maintenence.
@@OG_ALviK what running chip you recommend for the 124?
“...as it’s called by all the cool kids. And also Tyler Hoover.” Damn.
Doug's the type of guy to boil water ahead of time and freeze it for later.
Well to his credit, boiled water freezes faster than room temp water.
Doug's the type of guy to not know that.
PHANTOM MEDIA - Cars, RCs, and Lego Technic your freezer has to dissipate all of the energy in the water anyways... which has more energy, room temperature water or boiling water??
Koby Dunham Well he's referring to the fact that boiled water is cleaner so it doesn't take as long to freeze
I bet most of the people who likes ur comment has no fucking idea about the joke but good one!
Doug, no one said it was a better Miata, my late wife liked the styling of the Fiat over the Miata, that is not hard to imagine when you compare the two side to side. The Fiat 124 Spider is an attractive roadster, my wife sadly passed away this past April, I now drive her Fiat 124 Spider. It is almost paid off and a roadster car is fun to drive no matter the origin. It is mostly Miata inside with a very reliable Fiat engine , a nicer interior and the styling is better than the Miata. To each his own. I will drive that Fiat for a long time due to the sentimental value alone.
Actually I have looked at both cars side by side and I prefer the styling of the MX-5 (or Miata) over the 124. Different strokes for different folks.
Ripperoni
Before i owned a Miata i preferred the 124. Having now seen the nd2 up close (especially the RF), and getting to spend time with it, I prefer the mx-5.
The 124 is very classic. You know what you're getting. The mx-5 has angles that can only really be fully appreciated in person and in a variety of lighting conditions.@@sambethune
It is though.
I test drove both cars & the 2017 Fiat 124 Spyder Abarth has turbo lag off the line making it slower from a stop to 60 mph. The clutch also felt much heavier which killed my enthusiasm for the 124 ! Its also heavier in turns so it feels less athletic. The next day I went to the Mazda dealer & they had basically the same car - 2016 MX-5 Club soft top in the same color even with the Brembo / BBS package.
Pulling out of the dealer lot immediately the super light clutch felt so much better. The throttle response was instant so it was quicker off the line & felt very light in the turns. The Fiat Vs Mazda was no contest as I am all about how the car drives. The Mazda MX-5 wins in the important places & it sits in my garage 6.5 years now since new. Daily drive in 4 season weather as when the colder temps hit I put the winter wheels / tires on so its not a garage queen. Love that car !
Both cars are great but gotta say I prefer this car to me it just looks much cooler and is less common
Less feminine looking....
@@BibtheBoulder Still feminine looking but I see what you mean.
More old school Fiat looking.
Doug the type of guy to ride in the back seat of a Miata
Christian Anderson lmao
Doug the type of guy to yell "please stop" while being car jacked.
laughed a little too much
Haha
Doug is a type of a guy who removes cup holder with coffee and carries with him while shopping at Walmart
Hexagonically hilarious
Is he speaking fast or made the video faster? 😳
He went to the Ben Shapiro School of Talking Fast
"all the cool kids... and also Tyler Hoover". Burnt to a crisp.
Fuck you, Xplosion51.
Yep, not un-seeing that line now
maxxjett films love your channel man
Well since anybody noticed it means it isn’t so bad
Joeker k thanks!
Alessandro Melone it wasnt until doug mentioned it
In the right colour (a dark colour for example or black) then it shouldn't be too big of a deal. Otherwise yah its definitely noticeable.
I definitely agree that the MX-5/ 124 are loads more fun around a track than a more powerful car. I’ve been working with cars 15 years as a marketer and I’ve had Hellcats, AMGs, Vettes, Mustangs, M series, you name it on the track in some kind of “I need to learn the car” style excuse. Big name big power cars are certainly fun but you have to know how to drive and I’m no expert. These little 4 cylinder rwd sports cars INCLUDING the BRZ/86 are fun in the sense that you can’t mess up. It’s like being in a go kart. Just fun, fun, fun.
Anything over 400 horsepower will try to kill you if you don’t pay it the right kind of respect. But these little guys are just freaking bundles of joy to rip around in.
I concur, I've owned a lot of muscle cars myself, currently own a MX-5, had it 5 yrs.. Still these little roadsters don't get the respect they deserve for being all about fun and not about speed! Folks that have no clue call them "girl cars" etc., which is completely idiotic.
@@walterberman8823 "Girl cars" lol, very insecure of them
I have a Mustang GT but driven Miatas & Boxsters...fun cars, who cares what people think
I have owned or driven almost every car out there, outside of supercars (911 Turbo is closest), but I absolutely love my 124! Thanks for telling me about the secret stash compartments.
Been fortunate to have owned almost every car out there and this is the one that is the most fun to drive....bar none.
"It's nice to have a big hazard light switch, in an Italian car..." I see what you did there. Lol.
So true. Fiat should have done what Volkswagen did in the 50s/60s with the Ghia; use Italian artistry for the body panels but leave the rest German or in this case Japanese, so it actually works. I hope the electricals are Mazda and not Italian or (gasp) LUCAS Lighting the prince of darkness.
I was looking for this comment. Lol. Shots fired. Italian car fans triggered.
Too bad it's actually a Mazda.
The engine is from Fiat though.
"I've never seen anything like that before, and I am so familiar with this car because it is an exact duplicate of the Miata interior, which I guess I have never seen."
Doug is the kind of guy to release a convertible car video talking about nice warm sunny weather when half the country is in record low temperatures during the winter...
Your mother..
The weather is terrible where I live. A low of 54 and a high of 69. I could also see some clouds in the sky.
This was recorded sometime before early November. It was shown in his 1 mill sub video
Currently right outside of DC, it's been under 20 for like a week.
self immolate for the benefit of civilization.
You've come a long way kid. It's now 2020 and the quality of your videos now are amazing. Great job Doug!
Doug the type of guy to talk so fast it raises my blood pressure.
An Italian car that made in Japan is probably the most reliable Italian car you can get.
RealAvus What about the internals ? That motor appears to be an FCA product.
Yea engine is from FCA, but the craftsmanship and electronics are from Japan which is a BIG plus. I trust Japanese electronics stuff in automotive much more than Italian, German and American.
What are you saying a bunch of drunk Italians cant build a reliable car?
The 1.4 FIRE engine has been around since '85 and is currently one of the most reliable small engines. Much more reliable than the Skyactive for example. Maybe stop being prejudiced and get some actual info.
Most Japanese cars sold in USA or Europe are NOT made in Japan. However, Mazda cars made there have a lot of problems with rust. Moreover, Japanese cars do have faults and quality failure. Btw, Italian engines are much better and reliable than those from Japan. Stereotypes are stronger than reality.
Can Doug make a video reading all the 'Doug the type of guy..' comments? Or Doug is not that type of guy?
codexhammer No, but he can make a skit out of those comments.
Paul Jr. Harrington let's start an online campaign for that... So Doug knows how bad we want it..
Live stream, will tip a few ;)
@@pauljr.harrington1905 or make a t-shirt with the comments
@@traianima I would buy that
In some board room in Tokyo some translator is trying to act like doug and explain to the Japanese engineers what quarks and features are. And explaining if doug is actually 6'3 or 6'4...and why that matters for future production.
my pops has this car and its tuned up to beast level with superdown springs and 17 inch tires with spacers and a bolt on catback screamer exhaust. the car has the best handling the car scene has seen. the acceleration is immaculate, and my god the turns are incredible. pop a 90 degree turn at 40 miles per hour without a single slip. Its a beautiful car and performs like a dream
fiat, an italian sports car built in japan with mopar all over it
mopar or mercedes benz?
Probably about the only way to make a truly reliable Fiat.
This is the world now it's all topsy turvy. I love the door jamb label "MFG BY MAZDA FOR FCA US LLC" or whatever

Having just bought an Abarth last weekend, this was a very informative video.
I was floored at how well a new MX-5 handles like it's on rails on the Autobahn at 135 MPH with a relatively short wheelbase. I wish the 124 had the new Miata's retractable hardtop.
All the cool Kids and Tyler Hoover. :'D
It doesn't surprise me people think this car is much more expensive than it really is. The back end styling is pure Maserati, and that's no bad thing. I like that at the front they pay clear homage to the original 124, but it's not at all retro. You really have to know the original 124 to know this car's styling inspiration. Very well done.
I own one of these, and this car gets A LOT of attention. A lot of people are not familiar with the Abarth badge and ask if it is an Alfa Romeo, Maserati, or even Ferrari. I have been surrounded by people asking about the car many times, in store parking lots, at gas stations, I have even had people walk out into the street while I was stopped at a light just to see the car. I took it to an Italian car show, and the organizers parked me with the Ferraris, Lamborghinis, and Maseratis.My Abarth 124 got as much attention as the Ferraris and Lamborghinis, and a lot more attention than the Maseratis. being a brand new car, I don't think the organizers knew what it was.
I doubt that the MX 5 owners can say the same.
Steven Eldredge cool, I have a few questions if you don't mind. I'm guessing you're in america? If so, is yours heavier than the euro market abarh? And can you drift it? I ask because the top gear review by Mat Le Blanc was pathetic for this car and they seamed to review it based on what they wanted it to be I.e the original 124.
marconico
I believe that the North American spec Abarth probably weighs about the same as the Euro spec Abarths. I have never drifted the car so I can't say for sure but I assume it will as long as traction and stability control is off. I have done a couple of nice burnouts with it.
Steven Eldredge I've actually had people call out on my 500 abarth and ask what an abarth is. FeelsGoodMan
Very nice review. I have a 2018 Fiat 124 Spider Classica with the optional technology package (yes, I have a nav system) and I absolutely love it. I drove it from North Carolina to south Florida and back to visit family for the holidays. I found it very comfortable for a long trip like that. Then again, I'm 5' 2" tall so what's tight for you is roomy for me. I'm also a former Miata owner. Would I recommend the Fiat? You bet!
The body styling and the exhaust sound of that car is simply stupendous!
You can get a better active axle back exhaust on the MX-5 Miata & still have $3,000 in your pocket left over versus a 124 Spyder Abarth ! Plus the Fiat engineers comically buried the elemental oil filter under the air intake & put it UPSIDE DOWN ! What a mess to change the oil !
Mazda miata making people think theres a parking space since 1989
Brendan Hall Smarts are even more frustrating
Someone hit my miata in a tight spot

All of Doug‘s videos are fantastic. Truly. I do prefer the more recent content where he is not seemingly rushing through his script. The more relaxed Doug is a better Doug.

Doug’s the type of guy to wear a biking shirt while giving a car review.
Justin Hargrave Glad you noticed.
I was legitimately shopping for one before Doug pointed out that panel gap and I can't unsee it now
I have one. Great vehicle!!
Damn, that is a very handsome little roadster! Much better looking than the new mx-5 in my opinion.
Why?
Carl Benz Well there’s really no explanation for it, it’s just my subjective opinion. That being said, I’m not a big fan of the squinty-eyed look of the mx-5. I also like how the front and rear lights of the 124 are pushed to the corners, it gives the car a broader, more brutish look than Mazda.
Doug the kind of guy to review a multi-coloured line
That fender line is atrocious. Never would've noticed it if it wasn't for Doug. Thanks, Doug. Forever ruined.
Eric Ortiz as decent as the new Miata looks (which will never compare to an NA) this in white with black trim looks incredible.
it reminds me why I like to the Saturn Sky over Pontiac Solstice when that was a thing
PAKTRA PRODUCTIONS to much contrast between the black and white parts, i prefer it in grey with the red interior.
A body livery wrap could masc that out so it will be forgotten quickly ( ;_;)
Hey Eric, my mom wants her 80s hair back
D. B. Cooper Let me know where the money is and I’ll gladly oblige.
Lucky enough to own one-the 26K Scorpione trim-went to take a look at it back in 2020 not sure what it would be like-I immediately adored it and bought it on the spot-still have her now 4 years later-always puts a smile on my face-such a sunny and spirited little Italian sports car-Im keeping her forever❤️
Thank you Doug. I have this car after your review. It makes so much fun in Alps. Cool and cheap.
Optional Blinker Volumes:
1. Low
2. High
3. Ultra High
4. Charlie Sheen

Agree. It's one of the best looking car's of this new generation. I think it is THE best looking car from 2017. Clean lines, good stance, not over designed, continuous design concept. Yea, super rare, nice styling.
Jonathon Barberio are you drunk?
@@chukob5 While I was enjoying a lovely Dale's Pale Ale at the time, no, I was sober. The Fiat perfectly incorporates a classic design with a modern spin. It's not over designed with pointless lines and curves like a BMW, Chevy, MAZDA, Honda, Nissan, ( I could go on) but has well balanced lines, a clear, consistant design flow, and a wonderful stance/presence. Even with a car cover draped over it, it would convey a sensual, powerful figure. Not sure who designed it but if you told me Bertone (my favorite), or Pininfarina, I would believe you.
I am a simple man, I see quad exhaust I press like.

Only because its JDM engine, from Mazda. But I have to question the rest of the car. Fix It Again Tony.

Ah yes. The distinct aerodynamic wedge silhouette. A trademark of the world renowned Italian brand. I can practically hear the V12 howling from here.
And the speed it was going, wow what an animal!!
Doug the type of guy to have a column on autotrader.com/oversteer
Shouldn't we say the Mazda Miata is a copy of the Fiat Spider since the Fiat Spider has been around longer?
Hi Doug, do you actually know and or condone the advertisers on your site? Loved
watching every one of your posts.
THE "NIGHT" MODE IS PERFECTLY VIEWABLE AT NIGHT. You know, because at night, it's DARKER outside, so the screen doesn't need to be as bright.
mugdays nope still Terrible unless pitch black
Not true, I'am driving a new Mazda 3 which shares the same Entertainment System with the Abarth (as i just learned) > and the night mode is REALLY really more than enough, when its dark outside - I change that everytime i drive after 8 a.m
I've driven a Mazda 3 which shares the same exact infotainment system pretty extensively and it's plenty viewable at night
He is pointing out that most change the colors to higher contrast less bright colors instead of just dimming the screen.
Lmfao please let this be bait
Doug is the type of guy who takes a sip of water after every red light
r/hydrohomies ?
I do this all the time, stop calling me out, please.
With his eyes wide open and a dumb look on his face 😂
You never spoke about the Sport switch by the shifter . It's a nice boost in throttle response and turbo boost. Supposedly alters the suspension and shock rate.
no it does nothing on suspensions. Passive shocks all around.
I depend on Doug for his reviews. Excellent job.
Doug the type of guy who gets the most 'doug the type of guy' comments in the whole of youtube
Doug, the type of guy to wear two t-shirts while... oh, he only has one t-shirt this time...
lol
New year new Doug
Holy shit...this...what parallel universe have I accidentally stumbled into...?
Hey its Bladed Angel!
100th like😊👍🏾
I'm seriously interested in these now and I already own a 500, which I absolutely adore...
This is an amazing Italian car that is completely different from a Mazda.
It lets you have more fun with style but reliability as a Mazda.
I have owned it for a year now and I'm still excited to drive it and you said it's a known car. Nobody ever knows what it most people think it's some kind of Ferrari it's fun and can be modified to be super super fast
