Abarth 500C "La Dolce Vita" by Fenice Milan

Who said that the wealthy prefer luxury cars or sports cars only sedans are often longer than 5 meters? The 500C "La Dolce Vita Gold and Diamonds" made by the Atelier in a single Fenice Milan for a wealthy Chinese client, the incredible price of 500,000 €. Based on the Abarth 500C, the new creation of Milan coach is disrupted, especially in exterior and interior with exquisite materials that make it more like a jewel in a car.

Aesthetically, the livery of the 500 has been embellished with some details in 24 carat gold covering for example the outline of the headlights and fog, the outlines of the roadway, over the uprights, alloy wheels, special 17-inch sports exhaust and the spare even the exterior mirrors that receive the bottom as well as some diamonds.

The opulence of the exterior is reflected in the rich interior, stripped completely from the original materials to make room for the teak wood paneling (the same material used on boats) for the floor and the dashboard, which also integrates an Apple iPad (in turn enhanced by other diamonds as the case).

To complete the luxury car's cream-colored leather upholstery of the seats that are combined with the door panels and the roof of the car made from soft Alcantara. Fenice Milan obviously did not overlook even the mechanical part and for the occasion turned to one of the leading experts in tuning our country: Romeo Ferraris, known for producing fireballs racing as the Mercedes C63 AMG 540 HP or Corvette Z06 with 677 hp.

The small 1.4-liter engine Turbo T-Jet 140 bhp and 206 Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed automatic transmission, has received a new electronic control unit ECU which raised power to 200 hp. To monitor the abundance of horses, the Italian coach has replaced the previous structure with a new suspension system from stiffer springs that make the profile of the car 20 mm lower than the standard version.

In addition, the brake system was replaced with a new system developed by Brembo plus.
