homero89 is on a distinguished road
Default American Pricing

I did this to get an idea of what I will have to pay for a 500 Abarth when it comes stateside.

Using the BMW M6 as an example
I took the UK base price of £87,335
times the exchange rate of 1.46799 american dollars per pound
to get a price of $128,206.91 american dollars
Take that and divide by the American M6 price of $102,350 to get a price difference of 25.26%

Now to do the same with a base 500 Abarth, which correct me if I'm wrong has a UK starting price of £13,600.
times the exchange rate
to get a price of $19,964.66
Now take that and divide it by 1.2526 to get and estimated american starting price of $15,938.58 ~= $16,000.00

Now factor in taxes, tag and title and should come around $17,500.00.

Not a bad price considering a Mini starts around $19,000.
