Then I nervously lifted the clutch and pressed the accelerator pedal, and was relieved to find that the car started properly. The car had to start on a slope at the point where the car left the Higashi Rokko Observation Deck and entered the mountain road in Ashiyu, but it cleared the slope as well. The owner of the car told us
Shifting from 1st to 2nd gear, so smooth, you're good!
(Laughs) It's a 1400CC, so it's not a powerful car by any means, but it's a car with a lot of power.Even when running up the hill of the mountain pass in second gear, the car ran unexpectedly strong.There is no discomfort in the handling, and as the owner mentioned at the beginning, the shift lever is perfectly positioned.
Combined with the compact body sizeEnjoyment as if you have it all under your control.There is a. Then here is where the owner of the
Try pulling in second gear and accelerating!
When he suggested that we accelerate harder on the straightaway, we were able to enjoy a very pleasant engine sound.
Classy and extended exhaust sound.It is not a bombastic or powerful sound, but it is a "sound that is not a bomb".timbreIt had a good sound that I would call "a good sound". I'm more than the exhaust sound of a car with a modified muffler.(When I was once given a ride in a supercar with a modified muffler, I rudely said, "The engine sounds like a cow giving birth!" I once said...)I still like the genuine sound.
If it feels this good in stock, I thought, it's more than enough!
Also, while driving the Abarth 595, I feltfeeling of camaraderieIt's a "companionable car. Depending on the car, there are models that make you feel like a partner and models that don't, but in the case of this car, even after a short test drive, I felt that I became attached to it.
I will want to drive this car not only for daily shopping, but also to go on long trips to various places.Brick-paved road with old Italian townscapeAnd thinking about how much fun it would be to run....
By the way, I asked him how he was doing on the highway.
This is pretty amazing. I always drive at about 1.0 km/h, but I have no problem at all. But maybe because I drive like that, my fuel consumption is only 9km/l, which is a bit low.
And.
When I hear that the fuel economy is 9km/l, I don't know if that value is good or bad because my senses are numb from seeing the fuel economy of the GT3 and Panamera Turbo... lol.
."And try matching the revs on downshifts!I'm practicing rev matching in my BMW 320i right now, but I'm always getting a "no" because I'm so stiff on the gas pedal.Squeak!I had to stop this time, because I had never had a successful attempt with a "gakkun" sound and a tremendous shock.
After that, we backed up at a parking lot on the way to Ashiu and went back the way we came, but thanks to you, we were able to finish the test ride without stalling even once. What a relief!
It was only a 10-minute test ride.Realizing that the manual Abarth 595 is a very easy and fun car to drive!The shift lever was easy to enter and the clutch was light and connected in a deep position. The shift lever was easy to engage, and the clutch was light and connected at a deep angle, so even a manual beginner like myself could ride without feeling self-conscious.
Also, I'm not...Manual cars are easier to drive on the left than on the right.I also discovered that I am a right-handed person. I am right-handed, so I feel more comfortable operating the shift lever on the right. Next MT car I buy, I should look for a left-hand drive car.(W.) (W.) (W.) (W.) (W.) (W.) (W.)
Also, Abarth is fashionable in both exterior and interior, so it seems to be well received by wives and women. ...So, I am sorry that my review ended up being sensational and fluffy, unlike my husband's... (-_-)
Thank you to the owner who graciously gave us a ride this time! Thank you so much!
When I went to Ashiu recently, blog readers and followers approached me and asked me about the cars I owned.Please drive it! We don't mind if you post it on your blog at all!I have been getting more and more opportunities to receive "I'm very, very thankful. I am very, very grateful.
Actually, I've been very interested in the Porsche recently, as well as the Roadster and Supra... I wonder if anyone would be willing to let me test drive them at Ashiu.
I'm sorry, I'm getting a little carried away.
