This has to be one of the most bizarre Fiat 500’s I’ve seen to date. Inspired by the popular doll, this Fiat 500 Barbie Car is extremely high-end with a matching high-end price tag of well over $125,000. Yes, you read it right, well over one hundred and twenty-five thousand dollars.
That’s a heap of cash for a micro car. 
Fiat is now looking at the direction of French car manufacturer PSA Peugeot Citroen as the negotiation with Germany’s Opel is getting dimmer.
The initial move of the Italian group to get a hold of Chrysler and Opel is seen by analyst as a step to have a global presence. Experts though see the inking of the Chrysler deal as the weakest link in the chain of strategic maneuvers done recently by Fiat.
Sergio Marchionne, CEO of Fiat, forecasts about six automakers to be out of business as the haze of the global credit crunch clears in the future. He foresees only a few European brands surviving the financial crisis. Fiat is aiming to buy out as many car industry players as possible.
The Fiat-Opel deal is among its great desire but sees the tie up with the PSA as a move with a better potential. The “better potential” translates to a combined sale of about 7 million units.
One of the most famous of all Italian carmakers is Fiat. Those of you who love cars must have heard about the new Fiat Bravo. Though this car from the stables of Fiat has been re-launched recently, it is not entirely a new car and has been around since 1995. In fact the Fiat Bravo had been doing the rounds from 1995 to 2001. Recently in 2007, this name was revived again as the replacement for the Stilo. The Stilo will henceforth be known as Bravo and shall not have three doors any more. Some of you might recall the Brava and it is interesting to know that both the Brava and the Bravo were both versions of the same car.
The major difference is that whilst the Brava had a long 5-door hatchback, the Bravo has just a 3-door hatchback. You might be interested to know that the Fiat 131 was also known as the Brava in USA. Those who prefer cars with low pollution will love the new Fiat Bravo because of its low emission. Nowadays, every one is looking around for eco-friendly cars and for them the new Fiat Bravo might well be the best choice
