Hello, I would be interested in what the mini fans and drivers of the new Fiat 500 hold. Can this be a (first time) competition to the mini. So far the mini was quite alone. In the Italian holiday I could notice a hitherto unknown Fiat enthusiasm among many Italian acquaintances. The 500 triggers there real enthusiasm storms. I then visited then last week in Italy a Fiat dealer. The dealer had 2 white 500 in the sales room. Although it was Saturday 1 pm (lunch time in Italy), the sales room was well visited. The car is simply fantastic. Looks chic and is unblemishedly well processed. Especially the interior has become great. No cheap plastic, great fabric seats and incredibly pleasant leather seats (in the 2nd). Amazing were also the space conditions, you could not sit comfortably on all four seats with much legroom. Only the rear headroom was scarce (due to the roof shape).
