There is a version of this car with a black and white checkered board paint job which just screems cool. It's for sale on e-bay right now as an FYI to anyone interested.

Cool car even without fancy paint jobs, but I like many small cars.

This is one of the few small, no, make it tiny cars that is sub zero. It is much more difficult to make a stylish and beautiful small car than a big car, but the italians can pull it off.
According to the car interested women I know, and they are unfortunately a minority, this car might be the ultimate four wheeled "bird-puller".
For this reason, and for being inherently chic, this car is sub zero.

If you think that 500cc and 28 horsepower (if my memory is right) is not enough for you, there are always the Abarth versions, with up to 1000cc and significantly more power on tap. Close to 160 km/h (100 mph) in a car this small should do it for anybody.

And which car would make a better city-classic?
