Jerminator Internal Moderator March 8, 2016 Share March 8, 2016 Last heard from the sales person that they might start to bring in Fiat models again. Don't know true anot. But as of now the showroom looks more like a PI showroom selling other brands of vehicle. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
L_club23 4th Gear March 8, 2016 Share March 8, 2016 Everything carried over from the Mazda MX-5....Except the outside panels & lights. The wonders of a collaboration with Alfa... Won't see the Japanese coming up with that on their own... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercury1 Turbocharged March 9, 2016 Share March 9, 2016 The only fiat i drove was the grande punto which had a really odd gearbox couldn't get used to it so cross it off the list.

teomingern 6th Gear March 10, 2016 Share March 10, 2016 Fiat = waste of time... sure it looks good... but in this century, with that kind of infamous reliability? What's the pain for? There are other very nice options like the BRZ, etc... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercury1 Turbocharged March 10, 2016 Share March 10, 2016 My friend drives a Fiat Bravo leh, seems pretty reliable and quick too. Vast difference compared to the Punto I test drove. Fiat = waste of time... sure it looks good... but in this century, with that kind of infamous reliability? What's the pain for? There are other very nice options like the BRZ, etc... ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
