<br />
The Fiat 500 Abarth is a pretty sweet little retro rocket all on its own, but the Italian automaker's performance division hasn't stopped churning out a seemingly endless stream of special editions, from the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2008/07/07/abarth-releases-limited-edition-500-opening-edition/">Opening Edition</a> to the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/09/09/officially-official-fiat-confirms-abarth-695-tributo-ferrari/">695 Tributo Ferrari</a>. We can now add to that list the 500 Abarth SpeedGrey by Neubauer.<br />
<br />
Unlike the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/07/15/fiat-launches-pricy-new-special-edition-500-abarth-competizione/">Competizione edition</a> made specially for the Dutch market, the SpeedGrey is actually an undertaking of Neubauer, the official Abarth distributor for France. Starting with the up-rated EsseEsse spec, the Neubauer edition gets a special Monza exhaust system for an extra five horses (boosting output up to 165), a pair of <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/06/11/the-seat-of-power-abarth-corse-by-sabelt/">Sabelt bucket seats</a>, tinted windows, Blue&Me navigation system and special Maserati gray paint job. Looks pretty sweet, but Neubauer will only be making 10 examples exclusively for the French market, so we'll just have to bide our time until the stock hot hatch <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/10/28/report-fiat-500-to-launch-in-the-u-s-with-abarth-performance-m/">arrives Stateside</a>.<br />
