nippon...there are still plenty of us oldtimers around who are still interested in buying a new rig, no old used ones in this padre's future. And Warranty is one of those things I look very seriously at. And the Fiat Abarth would have to come with a stick shift for me. Period. Just as sure as the Yankees are going to sink in to the Atlantic when things get serious later, the 500 needs to come with a stick, not paddle shifters. The smaller the car the more it must have a stick shift, the '08 Mitsubishi Lancer is just large enough to be OK with me to have an automatic CVT tranny. As long as I can have my titanium paddle shifter with 6 forward and 6 back. And The Guess Who's #10 album, a can of Coca-Cola classic, and roads without holes in them...hey then I'm a happy Arizona camper.

Supposedly the Fiat 500 would be sold in unique showrooms, as BMW does with Mini. So, will Fiat convert closed Mopar dealers? At first, they wanted to just brand the car as '500', but look how well that worked for Ford!

umm...they don't need "special" showrooms for the Fia-Chrysler 500, the car will sell itself in any old plain Mopar salescenter. Agreed? The car is a serious threat to my pocketbook in the future at some point. And I repeat-for this car I want a manual transmission. It's in the size range at which an automatic transmission would seem too "slow", or "sluggish" or just generally uncool. Gotta have a stick shift for this baby.

| I just recently read that Fiat is at the bottom of the list for quality in England. How does it rate in Italy and France??? It surely did not have good quality when sold in the states before!!! | |

| yep, I think a whole lot of Americans are concerned about Fiat quality build. Those of us interested will check in to it as best we can and then report on it. Eh? | |
