Fiat Stilo M. Schumacher Edition
Can't believe nobody's posted this yet...well, i can guess why...
|
Visitors to the Paris Show can also admire a searing Fiat Stilo 'M. Schumacher', a limited edition named after the famous Ferrari driver who is a Formula 1 champion many times over and designed to appeal to customers who love a thrill. The new version will be produced in about 3500 units and will offer 3 doors and aggressive, exclusive looks. Examples include a Zender kit (front and rear bumpers, sideskirts and rear spoiler all in the same colour as the body), special 17 alloy wheels, a special Racing Red body colour (similar to the famous Ferrari Red) bearing the 'M. Schumacher' logo. The car is available in powerful 170 bhp 2.4 20v and 140 bhp 1.9 Multijet 16v engine versions and inside the sporty vocation is confirmed by the addition of pedals and sill plate in a special sports design. The Fiat Stilo 'M. Schumacher' offers as standard window-bags and an ESP system plus dual zone air condition, Hi Fi system with CD player (including MP3 files) and radio controls on the steering wheel. The long list of standard equipment on the 'M. Schumacher' special series also includes a large sunroof (sky window).

My opinion is that the car is a neat idea to try boosting Fiat's sales, and anything prasing Schumacher's great achievements is cool with me 8)

Other way around ... FIAT owns a significant stake in Ferrari - though there was talk of floating Ferrari out as a separate entity ... I dont know what happened with that initiative

Switching on the RC45 mode:
"That's what I have been saying for time immemorial ... All these European piss-ant cars claim sophistication but underneath it is good ol genui-ine American knowhow powering it. All you exotic lovers can go to hell. The Z06 is best and you know it. Anyone with an iota of sense should see this. And furthermore ... and what would Europe do if good old USA wasnt around to save your asses in the last two wars ... Huh?"
Switching off the RC45 mode
I am on a roll today ... I guess I should be the JW comedian but I flatter myself
