Fiat Quality Survey
Looks like Fiat has a tough road ahead regarding quality of their vehicles. I sure hope the 500s built for the US market surpass the quality in Europe. Americans are very unforgiving of poor reliability ratings! http://reviews.cnet.com/8301-13746_7-10253731-48.html

Re: Fiat Quality Survey
I'm keeping my fingers crossed they've amped up quality control. I got big bucks riding on it.

Re: Fiat Quality Survey
If you've seen the top gear mid east special, the Fiat came in ahead of a BMW Z3 and Mazda Miata. It hasn't been shown in the US yet, but it is available from http://www.finalgear.com/shows/topgear/16/

Re: Fiat Quality Survey
I seen the whole episode. It was great, as usual. Wasn't it a Barchetta?
