You do!

I just bough one, esseesse version.

Wanted to compare notes in terms of pads and oil (what you recommend).

And thinking of boosting it to 200 mybe your experience with a sports exhaust and bigger turbo.

This will be used very occasionally.

Cheers! Happy to find more 500 lovers here :)
 
I have the OEM Abarth oil as the car was under warranty until a few weeks ago. Only got about 5k miles on it since new though ...
