    The Fiat 500 marketing folks are waiting their turn to name the next weather system and they are claiming theirs will even be worse, beating the Cooper by a huge margin....:D

    Aww, they don't have actual "FU" tee shirts! Their shirts say "Free University" on them.

    Ida got one too!

    I don't see the problem.....remember when Top Gear had the "Cool Wall"? Best cars were always in the "sub-zero" category.

    Unprecedented weather system = more hype by the major European media outlets than it's probably worth. Tons of brand name exposure.

    I say it's FTW. :Thumbsup:

    If Fiat did sponsor a deadly European freezing weather system they would have to take J Lo to Cancun on a bright sunny day so that they could say that she enjoyed driving in the freezing Fiat front.

    The front would then stall out over Europe and never go where it was needed.
