He talks clearly (better than 90% who live here), dresses nice and appropriate, super smart, loves cars and offers real world reviews and does a great job describing everything. I don’t sub to too,many foreign channels but this is my favorite by car. Love the visuals, the awesome scenery, camera angles, clear audio...just an awesome channel. Thanks THOMAS! GREAT JOB BUDDY.
As a German automotive enthusiast and senior professional in the industry, let me tell you that we just laugh about this guy and his shitty English here in Germany. He couldn't even think of the word "lock" at 7:52, that's just unacceptable for a self-proclaimed automotive journalist working in English. He's carved out his niche on RUclips, with foreigners thinking he is more knowledgeable because of the very strong German accent, but he's really just an idiot doing a poor job.
Due to your presentation of this car, I bought a new, red, Lusso version, with camel leather seats and several extras, at a great price. Fantastic! I often smile at myself when I drive this car. Thank you!
I watched this video about two months ago just before I purchased a red 2018 Fiat 124 Spider Lusso with a 6 speed manual transmission. Pretty much the same vehicle as on this video. I found one nearly new in 2024 with only 5000 km n the odometer . Thomas, your video really helped in deciding on the Spider rather than an MX-5. You did a great job supplying lots of information and the videography was top notch. I really like the more traditional and Italian look of the Fiat 124 Spider. It drives beautifully and I enjoy the torque from this engine. Makes driving around the towns and cities pretty easy as the torque means you don’t need to shift as often as on the MX-5. The fit and finish are great. All n all I am extremely pleased with this vehicle. I look forward to a spring, summer and fall of top down cruising. Again, thanks for your video.
I have the 2020 classica. I’ve wanted one for a long time and the styling just blows Mazda away. Once they announced it was being discontinued there was no choice if I wanted one. I absolutely love it! They may have developed the perfect little sports car convertible in their work with Mazda. I’m so sad they stopped making it. I just don’t understand why they didn’t sell? It is so wonderful to drive and so much fun. Oh well. I’ve got mine now. Hopefully I’ll have it for many many years to come.
Got mine a few weeks ago. Took it out with the top down and drove it around town at 8C and sunny. Felt great! But haven't driven it since as Its still cold and snowing as I write this today. Thank you for your review and sincere comments and yes, looking forward to "enjoying summer"!!!!
I needed a good review on this car because i'm considering a test drive. Couldn't actually find anything decent on youtube, so decided to then even listen to a german review. But fortunately this guy talsk english very well and has a very clear and complete review . Gonna follow this channel now! Thanks!
Thomas in sporty style, an Italian sportscar with japanese know-how? Seems like summer is finally coming along! Great review as always, now I'm going to check out the abarth review ^^
Fiat done a good enough job differentiating it from Mazda, I actually like the base car over the Abarth version when it comes to looks.. the Abarth just seems a bit too pretentious and gaudy. Please review Hyundai G70 next time Thomas. Thanks.
For me, the best season for cruising with a convertible car is... autumn (spring in second choice) ! But, indeed... This 124 is really nice. The worst fault is that you can not adjust the steering wheel towards you. That's it just unbelievable in 2018 for this car catégorie !
Paul Wouah I drive my convertible in summer. Just wear longer sleeve shirt and a hat that covers your ears, like those Australian hats with the big brim. And the string tie so it doesn’t go flying if a wind gust hits. Sunsets are awesome as well as night time in summer.
For Sunset and night, i agree. But I still have trouble with the heat... Really...! That's why I prefer the climatic comfort of a coupe. I think I should go see the "CC" ;) !
How right you are....what a wonderful little car! The girl at 19:50 agrees with you and loves the car too! Stepping up to the tan leather doesn't cost that much more and makes for a practically premium sports car with tons of character. The Bose stereo in the Lusso version is amazing. Simplicity, performance, and a great drive! What more could a guy want? Great review and all the best! 😎
thanks James! Just be aware of the negative impact of leather. First, check out what the leather industry is trying to do: ruclips.net/video/nP_CvLlaFlI/видео.html Below this video you'll find more resources in the pinned comment to explain the topic even more in-depth.
Autogefühl Absolutely I agree 100%! There are some amazing alternatives to leather. And as far as the animal cruelty goes, well I am practically a vegetarian for that reason! Again great review, Lovely scenery, And a super presentation! Thanks again!😄
Great review, thanks. I own a Fiat 124 spider since early last year. Very happy with it, I even use it in winter (top up of course). Fantastic driving experience. I love the color (mine is also red) and the overall looks of the vehicle. People give nice comments when passing by. I can think of two drawbacks. First (and as was mentioned in the video), fuel consumption is high. Since this is mostly a weekend car however, I'm not doing all that many kilometers, so this is manageable. Second, the seats feel rather narrow and "pokey". I'm only 181cm so length is not a problem, but if you have wide shoulders or if you're slightly overweight, this can be an issue even you fit in the car lengthwise. More comfortable seats would, I think, extend the market for this car. Anyway, next month I'll be taking the Fiat across the Alps and into Italy. That will be fun !
Thomas I really appreciate your thorough, honest, systematic review on this 124, and video/audio quality is outstanding. As most other reviews on this Fiat seem to portray the opinion that the Classica and Lusso fall short in comparison to the Abarth, however your realistic opinion that the Abarth isn't worth the extra money for ride quality and everyday use, really meant a lot to helping me select the correct model. As a side note, its easy to see the difference of automotive viewpoints between Europe and Canada, as you mentioned fuel economy, and emissions being important, and how 7L/100kms is unacceptable. North America can say what they want, however their buying decisions clearly indicate that this isn't important at all, fuel is cheap here, and SUV /Truck sales dominate the market with big V8's, and small car sales have simply dried up completely.
Such a beautiful spring in a beautiful country. And the car suits it so well - simple, affordable, stylish (unlike Mazda) and fun. 19:38 - I mean, look at the girl on the bus, that's the highest praise a roadster can get!
I recently was given one of these as a loaner car from the Alfa Romeo/Maserati dealer in Van Nuys, California. In Bronzo Magnetico Titanium. A magnificent color. In the video I liked the way when you first started driving the wheels seemed to move in reverse. Very eye catching. A nice video to watch :)
It's a shame that Fiat makes very few vehicles that are chic, such as the 124 Spider reviewed here and the Fiat 500. The rest, well, they pretend to be special but they don't manage to be, whilst the Tipo, well, no comment. In my view, the brand needs to be consistent through all its products in order to be appealing; Mazda has done it, why can't Fiat do the same? Anyway, excellent review, as always, from Thomas!
Thanks for a little bit of spring and sunshine, Thomas and Holger! Nice La Villa am Starnberger See venue. "...play Tetris in the trunk!" - he he! 16:59 possibly a 2CV based sportscar (or a BMW flat-twin)? Great Review, many thanks, with very well driven driving part (as always) and excellent interesting driving commentary.
Hello Thomas, I am a new member to your channel. This is the first video I viewed and was very impressed with your point of view and technical input on the Fiat 124 Spider. I am thinking of buying a used one . I live in Canada (Montreal) so I can only drive it from April to October . Our winters here are very harsh. I am a car enthousiast so I look forward to viewing your videos. You have great knowledge of automobiles. I like the way your videos are made with beautiful scenery .
I am from Victoria on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. I just got a 2018 Red Fiat 124 Lusso with 5000 km on the odometer. I have had the car for about a month. Due to winter weather maybe more mild than Montreal but still wet and cold so haven’t been out much yet. I love the style of the Spider plus the great handling. The 1.4 turbo has lots of power for my needs plus if you need more you can quite easily modify the engine for quite a bit more power. I am looking forward to my wife and I hitting the road, top down, this spring, summer and fall. By the way these Fiat 124 Spiders aren’t very common so they attract quite a bit of attention. Way less common than a Mazda MX-5 for sure.
Thomas in my opinion the 124 spider beats the Mx5 in design. Regarding the engine pleasure of driving the Fiat leads the way albeit in reliability and consumption the Mazda is a clear winner! Fiat is also a winner for cheaper maintenance and parts. Although the 124 spider is less frugal i will choose it because of its classic and vintage appeal and production figures exclusivity (I think they will produce 20 mx5 to 1 fiat 124 spider). Excellent review. My congratulations!
@@izanreltih7218 The real question here is, do you have any idea of how much more fun is a car that can also do corners? Such a fast 0-100 time is useless and can't be used 90% of the time for normal people, this is much better. You can't savour the road with a straight-only car that flies off before the first corner because it has shit handling, there's no point in taking it anywhere.
I really like this car and am considering a base model (cannot afford the Abarth yet). I'm just worried about FCA quality and reliability but I love 2 seat roadsters so much I might overlook it...
Love your convertible reviews. Any chance to do a full review of a Mini Cooper Cabriolet? Maybe in comparison with the A3 or some other small cabrios. There are some videos from Autogefuhl, but without much commentary. Would be great to redo those.
Thomas, great review as always! You have style and get to the point. I was not into convertibles but this review made me considering one. I have about the same stature as you(height,weight). I see the head is getting a bit over the top (windshield, rear security arches). Because of this I am concerned about safety in case of a crash. Even during a partial roll the head would be exposed. Not to mention a lateral impact. Since you have lots of experience with cars, are these real concerns? Should I worry?
thanks Alex! Good point. Well those modern convertibles all have those popping out rollbars in the rear. Plus, rolling over is very seldom in a car anyway
Good sir, please tell me is that picturesque Bayern ? I recall such beautiful lakes near Obersalzburg that were stunning. I have cousins in Thalkirchen east of Munchen. I miss it & need to go back to my fatherland !🇺🇸🇩🇪
Hello. Does anybody here have this car longer time with more kilometers? Would you buy it again, or no? Whats the parts to be careful with? Thank you for the answer
19:50 the girl on the bus is eyeballing you and your ride. I find the precision of German reviews to be very similar to the precision of your automobile engineering. Chuss.
Always thought Fiat missed a trick here. The car styling falls short of what it could/should have been. Front and rear light clusters in particular are plain ugly. Promised so much, and failed to deliver. Hopefully a future version will be done right, just needs the right tweaks to nail it. Excellent review.
Best convertible top. Edit: Why two watches around 14:42? Double Edit: What city were you in? There's some high-end machinery you don't see everyday in the States.
I don't like one thing, that thing is FIAT brand or badge if someone wants. Being it German or Japan car oh, would love it. I know its silly but FIAT as car producer is like cheap Adidas shoes from Vietnamese street market.
Seems the top was closed here ruclips.net/video/D5Sk6o7Gf98/видео.htmlm40s You might be right, no support from the top and behind the glass. Still shakes at any speed it seems.

May i ask your native lasnguage? (Mine is Russian. )
As a German automotive enthusiast and senior professional in the industry, let me tell you that we just laugh about this guy and his shitty English here in Germany. He couldn't even think of the word "lock" at 7:52, that's just unacceptable for a self-proclaimed automotive journalist working in English.

Caro João comprou novo ou usado? Se novo qual o desconto que a FCA fez? Ob Tenho interesse. Tenho Alfa Romeo.
Hi Joaorustil. Would you suggest me to purchase a Fiat 124 or the Abarth 124? Which version?
You are definitely one of the best car reviewers yet on RUclips! I'm now considering getting myself this car after my co-op year.

And I have no sunburn (I do not like driving with sunscreen). ;)

I like how the sunlight perforation makes another perforation on the upper seat - great views & angles as always ✌️
Gotta respect the driving skills, road manners, and lane discipline of the Germans.
As a German I cannot say I second this. They are unfortunately pretty low, especially lane discipline is absent from many drivers.

Looks like a cool little convertible Thomas. My project car is a BMW e36 (99’ M3 convertible).
He reviewed my car, have it for the 3rd summer now and I love that car. Took it to Südtirol and Lago di Garda this summer.
Beautiful!!
It is a very good looking retro mobile. Absolutely love it.
Where was the first part filmed? That little cabin at the side of the lake looks just stunning! :o
Always mentioning locations in the review :)
Thomas, great review as always! You have style and get to the point. I was not into convertibles but this review made me considering one. I have about the same stature as you(height,weight). I see the head is getting a bit over the top (windshield, rear security arches). Because of this I am concerned about safety in case of a crash. Even during a partial roll the head would be exposed. Not to mention a lateral impact.
Since you have lots of experience with cars, are these real concerns? Should I worry?
thanks Alex! Good point. Well those modern convertibles all have those popping out rollbars in the rear. Plus, rolling over is very seldom in a car anyway

Thomas, you and Matt from Carwow are the two best car reviewers in the world, you need to get a show together!! :D
Thx m8!
17:01 what's that comming th other way? A morgan? An actual classic roadster?
Will you be doing a full review of the facelifted Range Rover Autobiography?
It's just a Mazda MX-5 (Miata) with a FIAT badge.It's made by Mazda ,right ,not FIAT ? It looks quaint .
Good for the summer.time.
I hate Mazda version and I love this Fiat.
So there is difference.
Well done Thomas.
cheers ! =)
The only reliable Fiat 😆
You got that wrong, it's usually the modern BMW's and Mercedes that are unreliable.
Nuhan Hidayat because Mazda made it
I am wondering if the realibility is avaible also to that 1.4 fiat turbo engine, its not made by mazda

Fiat 124 must be better than MX-5! It’s red ! 😍❤️
Great video enjoyed every second TkY for the money very nice car.You are GREAT.
cheers keep tuning in!
Does the 124 come with blind spot monitoring like the MX-5?
Er, there is no blind spot with these things!
Best convertible top. Edit: Why two watches around 14:42? Double Edit: What city were you in? There's some high-end machinery you don't see everyday in the States.
Around starnberg, very wealthy region
hehe that 2nd watch in the middle console is the remote for the actioncam =)
Was wondering how much space would my head fit before possibly wasting time to do a test drive.
At 11:15, HE'S MY SAME HEIGHT! Istant like and sub!
I found it unlivable on the highway due to wind noise with the top up.
Love mine it’s black
i'm not sure why your gas usage was so bad. mine gets about 30 miles per gallon.
That's liter/km.
It's 32MPG
Not bad design.. beautiful color!!
Would probably choose the mx5 though
Most affordable convertible would be the Smart. I really like both that car and the MX-5.
Rosso Abarth
20:09 I think that girl fall in love.
I don't like one thing, that thing is FIAT brand or badge if someone wants. Being it German or Japan car oh, would love it. I know its silly but FIAT as car producer is like cheap Adidas shoes from Vietnamese street market.
Mazda mx5 and u got this car japanese :)
@@autogefuehl Mazda looks like funky car, Fiat looks like classic gentleman car
yeah I also like the looks of the Fiat better!
The Mazda is the one to get. Best all-round engine, even though it doesn't have low range torque :-)
mazda is ugly as sin
lol @ the woman at 19:55 checking out Thomas (I mean who cares about that car with such a handsome man behind the wheel?)

Nice car, But I choose Mazda MX5
16:35 - 17:00 - driving in wrong side of street !!!!????
Shall i rather crash in the parking cars at the right side? :D
The Fiata! :D

Navigation location sucks, invites thieves.
it's not removable
besides, it's a lame device
Bella forte.

abarth is way over the top on every account
Pretty thirsty car, how much does it weight again?
Watch full length 👌
For that money i buy the kodiaq
Ew
It's a miata....
Seems like a shaky car.
The camera attached to the side window is shaky due to the window not having a supported rear and top side (with top open)
Seems the top was closed here ruclips.net/video/D5Sk6o7Gf98/видео.htmlm40s You might be right, no support from the top and behind the glass. Still shakes at any speed it seems.
I have the Abarth version - it's not as smooth as a Cadillac but smoother than a jeep. Keep in mind it's a roadster.
mx5 is still a better car
