And the airbags, seat belt tensioners, power steering pump etc, stereo, ECU, 3rd brake light, body trim, interior trim, sound deadening, 100+ sensors and wiring, 100+ lights, strengthened roll cage, strengthened doors, bigger rims and tires, bigger brakes, heavier suspension, thicker manual, 3-point belts all over, ISOFIX seat fixtures, you get the picture.
Put an old and new Fiat 500 side by side and you see how big the difference is. You could almost park the old 500 inside the new one...!
