Fiat 850 Abarth  tribute .

Abarth & C. S.p.A. is an Italian racing car and road car maker founded by Italo-Austrian Carlo Abarth in 1949. The aggressive  logo is a shield with a stylized scorpion on a yellow and red background, one might say representing the sting in the tail of any Abarth performance vehicle.
