2013 Fiat 500 with FREE DELIVERY! Description

Car is being offered with free delivery. For details and conditions, see the terms of the offer at the end of the listing.

This auction is for a 2013 Fiat 500 finished in Verde Azzurro Metallic with the Gray interior. It is powered by a 1.4 liter OHC 16-valve 4 cylinder MultiAir® engine that has received numerous rave reviews by engineers and the automotive press for it’s high power output, excellent economy and inherent smoothness. This engine features an cast iron engine block for maximum durability and an aluminum cylinder head for light weight and maximum heat dissipation, MultiAir technology with VVT (Variable Valve Timing) for maximum power output at all engine speeds, multiport fuel injection for excellent gas mileage and coil on plug (COP) ignition for reliability in all environmental conditions. Multiair engine technology allows control of intake air directly by the engine's intake valves, and eliminates a major inefficiency inherent to all gasoline engines: pumping losses caused by restriction of the intake passage by the throttle plate used to regulate air entering the cylinders. Developed by Fiat Powertrain Technologies, MultiAir can increase power by 10% and torque by 15% over conventional engines, as well as improve fuel economy up to 10%. Emissions are also reduced significantly as the engine burns fuel more completely. MultiAir is similar to BMW’s Valve­tronic technology but Fiat simplified the design by using a hydraulically activated system allowing it to be used on lower priced vehicles. In 2010, the 1.4L Multiair engine was named the International Engine of the Year by a panel of automobile journalists from around the world.

The engine is mated to a 5-speed manual transmission with Hill Start Assist Control (HAC) and traction control along with an Electronic Stability Control (ESC) program and SPORT mode. It has a low first gear that provides brisk acceleration from a stop, while the overdrive 5th gear allows for effortless highway cruising and excellent fuel economy. When driven with restraint, and in concert with MultiAir technology, you can average nearly 50 mpg on the highway. Hill Start Assist keeps the car from rolling backwards when starting off from an incline by keeping the brakes applied until you let the clutch out. The traction control system lets you drive through snow and ice covered roads almost as confidently as a four-wheel drive car. It uses the components from the ABS system and the electronic throttle control to regulate engine torque to enhance traction with wheel slip of one tire of the vehicle being counteracted by applying brakes to that wheel, causing torque to be sent to the wheel with the most traction. ESC enhances directional control with over/understeering of the vehicle being counteracted by applying brakes to the appropriate wheel to create a countervailing vehicle movement. ESC can be switched off for those times when you intentionally want to have some fun. SPORT mode increases throttle pedal-to-engine response for a more spirited driving experience. If you have an RV and tow a car behind it, the Fiat 500 can be flat towed at any legal highway speed, for any distance with the manual transmission in neutral.

Rounding out the Fiat 500 are a suspension and brakes designed to give a smooth yet controlled ride. Start off with a rigid chassis and unit body construction for a stiff foundation and add in a MacPherson strut front suspension with stabilizer bar and a coil spring setup in the rear with a stabilizer bar. Add rack and pinion electric power steering and low profile Firestone tires for precise handling. For secure braking there are 4 wheel discs with Anti-Lock Brakes (ABS) for maximum control in all road conditions and a Brake Assist System (BAS) applies optimum pressure to the brakes during emergency braking situations. Also, the Fiat 500 has all the latest safety systems including seven airbags. Advanced dual stage front airbags with passenger sensor, front seat side airbags, driver knee airbag and head curtain airbags. In addition, front seatbelt pretensioners and active head restraints further help prevent or reduce injuries during a collision. It goes without saying that the Fiat 500 is one of the more fun cars to drive in it’s class, and that it’s quicker, faster and handles better than many other pseudo-sports cars costing thousands more. With it’s light weight (about 2,300 pounds), short length (seven inches shorter than a Mini Cooper), and upright seating position with a short front overhang, this Fiat is about as close as you can get to a street legal go-cart.

The modern Fiat 500’s styling is a re-creation of Fiat’s classic 1957 500 of which over 4 million were sold during it’s 18 year production run. Italian cars are known for their euro-chic style and the modern 500 version is no exception. From its sleek lines and clean curves incorporating elements from premium European sports cars, it looks handsome from any angle without being flashy. A quick walk around the car reveals how the Fiat 500 is one of the most stylish vehicles in the small hatchback class of automobiles. Start up front with a body colored bumper incorporating a lower air dam, a satin black honeycomb mesh lower grill design surrounded by clear lens fog lights, and a smaller upper air intake below a pair of chrome accent pieces surrounded by the clear lens projector beam headlights that aerodynamically blend into the body. Next, look at the short hood with its center character lines, and continue along the sides with clear lens fender mounted turn signal repeaters, body colored mirrors and chrome door handles. Back from the hood, a steeply raked windshield meets the roof, and further back a shorty antenna at the rear adds another euro touch. A large roof mounted body color spoiler aids aerodynamic efficiency above a nearly vertical rear window. The rear hatch is surrounded but large taillights and has a chrome “500” lift handle. The rear body color bumper completes the monochromatic look and frames the polished stainless steel exhaust tip. Lastly, notice the aluminum wheels which are some of the most stylish found on any small car today.

The exterior is beautiful to look at, but if you like retro design combined with the latest high-tech, the interior design is handsome as well. Get in and sit down into a bucket seat that adjusts to the perfect driving position with settings for height adjustment and recline. Check out how comfortable the cushions feel and how the upright seating position combined with the short hood, gives you a commanding view of the road out the windshield. Then adjust the tilt leather wrapped steering wheel to achieve complete driving control. Notice how the thickly padded rim affords just the right grip and that the cruise control and Bluetooth switches are just a fingertip away. Next, look ahead at the instrument cluster with the large 140 mph speedometer and integrated tachometer, and the retro body color dashboard. Now look down at the sport pedals with stainless steel trim, look right and left at the chrome trim on the inside door handles and surrounding the switches in the center console and dash as well as on the shifter. Not only is the styling very handsome, but all the textures have a rich feel and look and all the switchgear have a precise soft touch action. From the tight weave of the cloth upholstery, the graining pattern on the dash and door panels, or the layout of the knobs and switches on the dash, everything looks and feels like it came from a more expensive car. Finally, turn on the engine and feel how smooth it idles. Press the SPORT button in the dash and take it for a spin. Feel how light and easy the clutch is to operate and how precisely the transmission shifts through the gears. Notice how smoothly the MultiAir engine accelerates even from low RPMs. Lastly, find a road with some curves to put the suspension through is paces. The steering when in SPORT mode feels nice and weighted, while the suspension is tight and hugs the road like a sports car. A light step on the brakes scrubs off speed instantly and brings the car to a stop without drama. So whether on congested city streets, open highways, or twisting mountain roads, you will be amazed how smooth, quick and powerful this Fiat drives.

The car is in very nice condition inside and out. It has a straight body with just a few minor touched-up scratches, blemishes or dings you would normally expect on a used car. The paint itself is beautiful and this Verde Azzurro Metallic paint (green blue) just about glows in the sunlight. It has just been cleaned with Meguiar’s Smooth Surface Clay System, polished with Meguiar’s Mirror Glaze cleaner polish and topped off with Meguiar’s Ultimate Synthetic wax for a high gloss shine. Even both the front and also the backsides of the wheels have been cleaned and waxed! How obsessed is that? Ditto for the stainless steel exhaust tip. All the glass, moldings, trim and emblems are excellent. The interior is in great condition as well. It has excellent upholstery, dashboard and door panels with no cracks, rips or tears or any significant signs of wear. The cargo area looks like it was hardly used and the engine compartment has been fully detailed and is clean enough to eat off of.

Mechanically it runs and drives excellent. The engine runs strong and feels smooth at idle, while accelerating and throughout the cruising range and it starts instantly whether hot or cold. The transmission shifts precisely at all speeds. Clutch pedal assembly recall has been completed. The steering wheel is on dead center going down the road with no shakes or vibrations at speed, the brakes are firm with no pedal pulsations or pulling to one side when stopping and the suspension is tight. The A/C blows ice cold. It has a set of four identical new premium Firestone Firehawk GT-H tires. These tires combine a high performance tread design, exceptional all-season wet/dry traction, extended comfort, excellent handling and superior tread life with a 460 treadwear rating. They have two steel belts for puncture resistance with a polyester cord body and hard rubber sidewall reinforcements for enhanced steering response and cornering stability. They have been balanced with balance weights mounted on the inside of the wheel for a super clean look.

The car comes with the balance of all manufacturers factory warranties and the starting date is September 3, 2013. CLICK HERE to see a copy of the warranty book. The 4 year/50,000 mile bumper to bumper limited warranty is good until September 2017. The car also has an emissions warranty for specified components lasting 8 years/80,000 miles and a 5 year/100,000 mile outer panel corrosion warranty. Contact a Fiat dealer for details and exclusions. When comparing this car to the others listed, keep in mind that this one was sold late in the 2013 model year, and so, still has a lot of bumper to bumper warranty left. Any other 2013 you may be looking at that was first sold on today’s date in 2013 or before, will have no bumper to bumper warranty, even if it has low miles. This Fiat 500 is a one owner car and has a clean Carfax.

The car has been fully checked out and serviced with over $1,500 worth of new or recent parts, maintenance and repairs with original Fiat, Chrysler Mopar or other name brand parts so that only your enjoyment rather than your immediate attention will be required on delivery.

If you are serious about buying a Fiat 500, this is about as low as they go with such low mileage. Remember, you can get a great deal on Ebay with prices sometimes way below retail, but no bidder is going to “steal” a vehicle and no seller is going to give one away either. Also when comparing prices, remember the things that you won’t have to spend money on soon after getting it home. With this car you won’t have to spend $1,000 or more on paint or bodywork to fix torn bumpers or a dented panel, you won’t have to spend $400 for a new set of tires, you won’t have to spend $300 on a complete front brake service, you won’t have to spend $300 on a complete rear brake service, you won’t have to spend $300 on a tune-up and filters service, and you won’t have to spend $300 on any upcoming scheduled maintenance. With many of the other listings on Ebay, Craigslist or on dealers lots, you’re lucky if they even check the oil before delivery. Also, if you are looking at other 500s, make sure they come with both remote keys, as a replacement with programming will run near $300. And if you lose your only key, it may cost three times that much to replace the immobilizer unit.

The car comes with the books:

Two switchblade remote keys and the key code card:

And embroidered carpeted factory floor mats:

The Fiat 500 was first sold in the USA in 2012 but has been available in Europe and the rest of the world since 2007, earning a reputation for quality and reliability after countless billions of miles on the road. Over 1.5 million have been sold worldwide as of 2015, and in 2013 it became the best selling car in it’s class in Europe. It has received 140 awards worldwide including Car of the Year numerous times. This 2013 Fiat 500 is virtually identical to the new 2017 models. What that means is you can own a car with the style and prestige of a brand new model, at a fraction of the cost.

If you are looking for a nice low mileage Fiat 500 in great condition at a low price, then this car is hard to beat. Also remember that we don’t charge dealer processing fees or document fees that many other listings have for $200 or more and bury in their fine print. And don’t be fooled by some other auctions that are advertised as NO RESERVE and start at $100 or some other low price. Since no dealer is going to risk losing thousands of dollars if their auction doesn’t bring enough money, you can be pretty sure he has some “people” bidding on it for him. Especially those auctions that are private listings where it says “User ID kept private.” Also, because my reserve is close to the Buy It Now price, don’t think that you will get a much better deal if you just keep bidding it up instead of using B.I.N., especially if you need it delivered.

TERMS OF THE AUCTION ARE AS FOLLOWS: Since this car may be advertised locally, auction can be canceled at any time (unless auction ended early with BUY IT NOW) due to prior sale without liability to any bidder. A down payment of $500 (plus any additional delivery charge) is required within 3 days of the close of the auction, balance due in cash on delivery or certified funds on delivery if I deliver it or you pick it up, or before it’s dropped off at the transporter if a shipping company is transporting it, but no later than 7 days after the close of the auction without prior agreement. I accept bank or certified checks, money orders, credit cards through PayPal (accepted for down payment only). If paying balance with funds other than cash, buyer to fax copy of monetary instrument no less than 24 hours before picking up vehicle.

The car is sold as is but is still under factory warranty as mentioned in the description. Buyer is welcome to inspect car BEFORE the end of the auction or to have someone check it out on your behalf provided you authorize whoever is checking the vehicle to provide me with a copy of the results. I have tried to accurately describe this car, both mechanically and cosmetically but you can expect a certain amount of minor flaws on ANY used car including squeaks, rattles, drips, nicks, chips, scratches, blemishes and any other marks that are consistent with the age and mileage of the vehicle. There is no possible way to include all minute details and imperfections, however, I believe my listing accurately depicts this vehicle and if there are any issues they are noted in the description. Also remember that a car is made up of thousands of mechanical parts and components and in an older or higher mileage used car a part that is working fine now may go bad the next day, in a week, or a month from now. It’s nearly impossible to tell when a particular part or component will fail as most don’t exhibit prior symptoms, however, proper preventative maintenance as this vehicle has received, can prevent most problems or breakdowns from happening.

In fairness to all bidders the reserve price will not be disclosed so please don’t even ask.

Buyer responsible for transportation and car must be paid for in full before it can be released. May deliver. Email or call for delivery quote or for any other questions. atikovi@email.com Maryland and District of Columbia dealer. Phone 202-246-5201. Please do not bid if you don’t intend to buy.

FREE DELIVERY TERMS: Free delivery within 500 miles of the Washington DC area if bidder purchases car with Buy It Now. (35 cents per mile for additional miles as shown in MapQuest.com from zip code 20001 to your address.) That is still the same rate as when I started on Ebay 16 years ago. Remember, the Buy It Now option disappears once the reserve price is met. The Buy It Now price is $6,995.

AUCTION ENDS: 10:00pm sharp, EASTERN TIME Sunday February 19th unless Buy It Now is used.

SPECIAL OFFER FOR QUICK SALE: DOUBLE THE FREE DELIVERY RANGE: Use Buy It Now before the halfway point in the auction, 10:00pm EASTERN TIME Tuesday February 14st and I will double the free delivery miles to 1,000 miles total.
