I think it looks lovely.

The old Fiat 500 is a classic. It was one of the cars people drove in post-World War II Europe and it became a symbol for rebuilding of post-World War II Italy and Europe in general.

My father had a 1950s Fiat Topolino 550, 550cc 4-cylinder engine with 13-horsepower and a top speed of 70 km/h (90 km/h if you went downhill). He has fond memories of that car and it's still around: a relative of ours bought it a long time ago and has restored it. He also has a 1979 Toyota Celica Supra, which is one of the few Toyota's I like.

Anyway, back on topic. It'll be a hit. I can feel it. It's small, practical, cheap and has style. Young Europeans dig this sort of stuff. That's the reason overpriced garbage like the Smart cars sold well initially. In this case, this thing looks beautiful and cute and will hopefully be priced right.

Don't do what VW did to the Beetle. The classic Bettle became a fat overpriced pig.
