Fiat 500 Abarth Scoop

Who cares about Lancia these days?

Well, I suppose you care and I care too...

You are pretty harsh about new HPE design, have you seen one in flesh?

Actually no, but at least pictures don't do it any favours. I'll see it live in a pair of weeks in the Barcelona Motorshow.

Okay Ferrer, but remember this - there is a very thin line between love and hate (that goes for the Fiat too!)

So... after the Fiat debate... I'm going to give my opinion on the car itself. I always had fun racing the 500F/L/R in Gran Turismo 2 and 4, I know it's games, but because of that two things happened: 1. I learned the car exists in the first place and 2. I started to like it. I'm looking at the new 500 and I find it stunning, there's a bit too much retro going on in this world but I must say, that 500 makes an honorable exception. I understand Fiat is not going in the right direction but that 500 makes sense - for me at least.

Don't get the impression Fiat isn't doing well. After being in a very delicate situation the success of cars like the Panda or (especially) the Grande Punto have eased Fiat's situation. Fiat is still broke, and that shows in the 159 and Brera, but they are seeing the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm just angry at how they are managing Lancia.
