Did you know that FIAT is actually an acronym for Fix It Again Tony.

If you buy a new Dodge Ram, it comes with a Fiat 500 in the bed.

That thing is a Cadillac compared to the car I rented on my honeymoon in Spain in 1972.
Got a Seat 600(Spanish built version of a Fiat,pronounced See-ot).A little tin can with an air cooled moped engine in the rear,4 speed trans,no radio,no A/C,manual brakes and steering and seats from a carnival ride.Took it on a 400Km trip to the northeast area where I had family.it was fine at 120Kph.At 130Kph the whole car lifted and floated,I guess because of the full undersided belly pan (it was unibody).Gotta admit it didn't use much gas in the two weeks I had it.

There is sort of a Drag Pack version available. The "Fiat 500 Abarth Assetto Corse" has a 190hp turbocharged 1.4L, stripped interior and factory installed roll cage. At 2072 lbs it has a 10.90 factor.

Up close and in action:
