For 15,000€ you'll get the 75hp version with no cd player, no aircon and some nasty 13in iron wheels
|
Now that does sound bad!
Awesome news about the Abarth version!

That's confusing. Korean car? Novitec? Too random?

Are any of those engine options the Chinese built Chery engines? You know Fiat has agreed to buy 100,000 Chinese / Chery made engines a year. Also some new Fiats will be partially or completely made in China.

Again to point out the Italian/Fiat connection to China.... Did you know Bertone and Pininfarina are helping Chinese Chery with aesthetic design for thier cars?

Well obviously not every single car is gonna be nice just cause its done by an Italian but in general u gotta admit the Italians are pretty damn good and probably the best when it comes to style in general, the pure looks and proportions of cars, the sexiness etc And u dont know how much of an influence Hyndai had on the design on that example, maybe with what Hyndai wanted to achieve (with regards to everything, crash ratings for certain sections of the car, intrior room, wheelbase, frontal area, drag coefficient, not making it wild looking, maybe hyndai demanded something understated, etc etc) thats the nicest anyone could of done. Or maybe the guy just sucks and ur completely right, but who knows.
