The car come standard with so many 'options' that I only bought the optional automatic transmission, Bose satellite radio & spare tire. Tilt steering wheel and cruise control are standard. So is Bluetooth for the handsfree phone; it reads texts o see full Fiat 500 review
2012 2dr Hatch turbocharged 160hp 1.4L I4
5-speed manual FWD
This car is just outright fun. Small. Nimble. Peppy. One of the best exhaust soundtracks I've heard. It's my work vehicle. I commute about 70 miles per day in traffic that can never be predicted. While I've owned more and less powerful cars in my long history, this one struck a balance. The gas mileage is steady at about 29/mpg and I always run in sport mode. see full Fiat 500 review

In 2009, at least, VW didn't give you a lot of options. The Komfort came with a manual transmission, leatherette interior, and no audio buttons on the steering wheel. I couldn't have a leather interior and the audio buttons unless I gave up my manual tranny. see full Volkswagen Eos review
