Another Fiat 500 Tribute edition from the guys at Abarth will be headed to the Swiss show next month. Abarth has created another Tribute edition based on the Fiat 500 cabriolet. The Abarth 695 Tributo Maserati pays homage to the Trident-badge brand with some more power and a great look for the open-top Italian car.For a real Maserati feel, the Tributo features a set of 17-inch Neptune-style wheels, a slick Pontevecchio Bordeaux burgundy finish and a set of exhaust tips inspired by the legendary Italian automaker. The interior features Poltrona Frau leather, leather-wrapped steering wheel and a nice carbon fiber trim. Along with special badging, the Fiat 500 cabrio has never looked this good.The Tributo Maserati runs on a 1.4-liter T-Jet 16v turbocharged engine cranked up to 180hp and matched to the tuner\'s six-speed Competizione transmission. A set of larger 305mm Brembo brakes has been affixed to handle the extra power.Only 499 units of the Abarth 695 Tributo Maserati will be produced. A matching luggage set will also be made available. It will make its debut at the 2012 Geneva Motor Show, opening on March 6th.
