Quality is fine. This is impressive. And it looks quick, too!

Why is this video rated 'age restricted'? Also, If those are current modern 500 motors, why do they sound so 'rattley' like a bag of marbles?

They all sound like that, at least in videos as the phone microphone and DSP tend to favor certain frequencies around voice. The Abarth is even worse as it compounds the rattly top end with an exhaust that sounds like a tractor to me…

You need to be around a real Lambo…Eh? Our Abarth sounds like a baby-Lamborghini symphony.

I’m not a big enough poser to have a REAL Lambo, lol. Our little 500 A sounds just peachy
