The guys at Fiat’s marketing dept must have been constantly high on mushrooms back in those days.

Looks way more refined than an actual Bremach

Now you know why euros all drive small 1.5L manual diesel hatchbacks/wagons. And no, it’s not because we’re all secretly car enthusiasts.

They weren’t modified, they came like that from the factory. Torch made an article about them a few years ago.

This ex-Austrian firefighters Suburban, currently being used as a parts runner/rolling billboard by an american car dealership in Italy.

That was a popular design element on Ferraris, appearing as early as 1966 on the 365P.

Still not as pissed off as a ‘59 Buick

I’ll just leave this here:

The Fiat 130 Coupé had a similar mechanism with a lever hidden under the dash, but I just can’t find any picture where you can see it.

Ah, the good old days when Top Gear was actually funny.

In wagon form, the Fiat Marea had these distinctive roof rails integrated into the taillights, which I always found cool.

Same goes for the Italdesign Machimoto.

Not many people know that it was the first car to have a carbon fiber driveshaft.

Fun fact: the Ford GT40 and the Lancia Stratos have taillights lifted from the humble Fiat 850.

How about shitting on your previous models?

Marazzato was a rather well known dealer network around here. They had several locations, with each of them selling lots of different brands under the same roof. Coincidentally, they went bankrupt in 2009, the same year as when Fiat bought Chrysler.

Please post pics of all the car sightings you’re gonna make along the way. It’s always interesting to see Americans getting excited about normal, everyday cars we don’t give two shits about.

Some of the newer ones are really cool:

Thank god I’m not american. And those americans you speak of don’t consider my country white either.
