I'd expect a turbocharged I4 to make more than 160Hp. Even Fiesta ST's can make 200Hp.

mustangs turbo 4 makes 310 lol

Probably a good car. Built by Mazda, so it'll be reliable.
It'll be fun. It's basically a Miata with Italian design, and a turbo engine - which can be easily tuned to produce more power. Stock output can be a bit dissappointing however, and it's slightly heavier than the Miata. It'll also depreciate harder (because Fiat badge), and the styling is such that you'll either like the 124, or like the ND Miata. It's just polarising, and not many people like both.

Fiesta ST only makes 180hp though, out of a 1.6 turbo. Fiata makes 160 out of a 1.4. Besides, both respond ridiculously well to aftermarket parts and tuning.

Abarth 124 (1.4 T-Jet): 114hp/l
Euro-spec Abarth 124: 121 hp/l
Fiesta ST (1.6 Ecoboost): 112 hp/l
Focus ST (2.0 Ecoboost): 125 hp/l
Mustang (2.3 Ecoboost): 135 hp/l
Focus RS (2.3 Ecoboost): 153 hp/l
Wierd how Ford engines seem to get more and more efficient the bigger they get, despite having to deal with more internal friction and pumping losses.
Austin Price
To add to this: the Abarth 1.4 seems to be smack dab in the middle of Ford's designs, despite not using direct injection. Pretty well done.
Hardtop usually isn't a make-or-break deal for convertible shoppers though. It probably isn't for OP, I'd guess.
