2007 Hottest Minicar

This new Fiat 500 makes you pleased that the Italian company didn’t go the way of Rover. A glance at it has you smiling – this is an old friend in modern wrapping.

I don't think it looks like a Ford Ka at all. Whats interesting is that it's got more rear leg room than a Mini even though its shorter. However the key to it's extra roominess it that it;s nearly 3 inches taller then a Mini at 58 inches. The Mini is about 55.3 I believe.

Definitely a hot car, and the interior looks pretty cool.

Before he came to Fiat he either helped or directed the design effort in the BMW Mini. He also worked on the Ferrari F430 and Maserati MC12. This is his best work yet.

Yes-Now he has been put in charge of design for Alfa Romeo. That should be very exciting in the next few yrs.

I had no clue he has been moved to Alfa Romeo. This guy is on a streak of wonderful car designs.
