How much does this Italian clown car cost?
From my own personal experience:
Fiat makes absolutely dreadful cars.
I think it is the only auto maker that produces cars without any kind of quality control whatsoever.
They look nice, specially the Grande Punto, looks really nice, but behind that tasty cream is a cake made of... anything that can possibly fail.
Gearbox, interior, rust WILL gather after 3years of ownership, gearbox again, window washer tank that's hidden from view so you can't see when it's full, and there's no meter inside or in the engine bay. It's full when it floods over. The fuse box is right to the tank too, so t WILL get wet when you put washer fluid in. The paint WILL chip and fall, parts are more expensive than you think since they WILL break once a year...
I have personal experience with Fiats, i do not recommend them.
Not to anyone not even my worse enemy. When it looks like that, maybe then to my worst enemy, so that I can see him coming and then point and laugh... it just looks ridiculous, look at that side profile.
Looks like it's hunching down to take a crap and the wheels look like they came off a skateboard.
These 500L and XL's are just plain ridiculous, they should shoot the man who approved those in the leg and force him to drive an automatic 500XL for the rest of his life.
He should also not be allowed to drive with a bag over his head masking his identity to family and friends.
Feel the eyestare sucker....

Well, well, well, the biggest defender of the 500L here has finally realized what an embarrassing piece of crap it is to be seen in. Still want one in fake-tan bronze, Rick? And what color would your bag be?

Yeah...that's why the Panda and the 500 are leaders in their class for reliability according to ADAC. Them Germans sure love to make shit up. The Punto also beat the Golf...
Also... You high? ANYTHING will rust in your part of the world.
3 Fiats in the past 7 years owned by our family, not one had any mentionable rust. And we have salt a plenty during winters. Unless crashed and idiotically repaired, they won't rust.
And the Dart, although still ramping up admittedly, doesnt seem to have many if any issues.
Gotta agree. These things look hilariously odd/fugly
