Fiat 500 sold out in 3 weeks, prompts extra production

Fiat’s recently launched 500 minicar is proving so popular that management has decided to increase production. According to Fiat CEO Sergio Marchionne, annual production for the 500 will expand to 140,000 from the current 120,000 level starting from next year. It’s hard to imagine that Fiat’s original plans were to build just 58,000 units of the stylish minicar this year.

The cabrio isn't real, it's a chop, and this will have very little depreciation, because it's cheap, small and desirable.

I said Alfa's had terrible depreciation, not Fiats.
But you were close :)

The Toyota Auris is sportier, more reliable, better value and looks nicer. This car is ugly.
