I'm almost starting to wish Fiat didn't come back to the country because all these years I've been content with driving around in old Fiats and hanging around with old Fiat enthusiasts when the new 500s appear and start fucking everything up
Now Fiats went from either being a "that looks like a Ferrari" or a "lol fix it again tony" to being that gay little car for women (Abarth notwithstanding, I would drive the SHIT out of that)

this is why you don't let a 20's-something liberal arts major manage your advertisement branch
What kind of shitty audience were they going for?

i fucking love memes
[QUOTE=Zukriuchen;45140014]"We need a new ad campaign!", screamed one of the executives at the Fiat headquarters. "We have run out of ideas, and if we don't get a new theme for the new Fiat 500 advertisements, we're screwed!"
A loud "Ahem" was heard from the other side of the room. The executives look in awe as a man in his late twenties, wearing a "Over 9000" t-shirt under a trenchcoat walks in the room. The air is now filled with a distinctive smell of sweat and doritos. The man walks up to the main table, reaches for a pocket in his coat with his fingers, which are coated in dorito dust, and pulls out a picture of a lolcat.
"Have you guys heard of..." — He pauses for a second to take a breath out of his Sonic-themed asthma inhaler — "...Memes?"[/QUOTE]
The sound of another inhaler is heard from across the room. The noise of a chair screeching against the ground as a 350 pound man in the corner of the conference room skids back to the table, into view. "I HAVE." As the man slams his hand against the table to push himself toward the table more, a trail of dorito dust is seen. "We're ready to move forward with this campaign." The man says, a bag of Doritos spilling out all over the floor. "Fuck!" He exclaims, his fedora falling to the ground.
I just dumbed everyone dissing fiat but then realised I was thinking of alfa romeo
shit
As for everyone saying the 500 is a shit car, the Abarth is actually a competent little machine. It scores better than most RWD equivalents on the QM, skidpad, and makes a lot of power for a car that weighs so little. I wouldn't buy one, but I'd sure keep one if it was handed to me.

The only thing it needs right now is the comparable power for its price, I've seen bad reviews pointing out at this.

They're a teeny bit steep at 22k brand new, but you're not likely to find a *new* car for that price that is as fast. WRX? 26k. 3-Series? 30k. Mazdaspeed 3? 24k. Not to mention a $400 tune (there's only 18lbs of boost stock, it can handle at least 26 on that turbo) and you're looking at over 240bhp in a car that weighs 2500lbs? Trust me, that's fast.
Why don't people like 500s? I thought they looked nice.
the fiesta ST is better anyways
I just want to say the 500 is awesome, the Abarth is sublime.
The 500 L makes me physically sick.
But I've got a Fiesta Titanium X and it rules all.
Make it stop. MAKE IT STOP.
I can't get the damn music out of my head.
The problem with the Abarth is that for the price you can literally just buy a better car with more power and a lot of greater things.
The fact that the performance version is nearly 50 percent increase of the price is a bit funny.

This is how I always imagined the stereotypical 'murrican.
[QUOTE=cardfan212;45139991]I don't think Fiat understands how or why advertisements work.[/QUOTE]
They also don't understand how to build a car that isn't faulty as fuck.
[QUOTE=Tools;45141846]Welp, it's official.
The 500 is cheap,
it's edgy designed,
and now it's using 2006 memes for advertisements.
This car was designed for tumblr hipsters all along.[/QUOTE]
you realize assigning the word "tumblr" to everything you don't like is stupid, right

Tumblr is pretty much the new reddit, like a year or two ago people talked so much shit about reddit without knowing anything about it.
Although you can't really say they didn't bring it onto themselves.

The biggest benefit I can find with it is fuel economy, honestly
fiats are terrible cars and anyone who owns these rolling cancerballs is literally the reason car culture is so shit.
"oh it's so cute :)"
"wow it's so cheap!*"
(*"I want this car because im dumb and want flashy things! it'll go perfect with my iphone daddy!")
im so fucking mad right now.

Just because it's overpriced doesn't really make it a shit car. Though yeah there are tons of alternatives that are so much better at a lower price. If someone gave me an abarth I'd be happ--- I'd sell it immediately actually.

except tumblr works in a completely different way. you really can't compare it to reddit.
The music was fun.
That was about it.

Missed the point
I'm talking about how people talked shit about them without knowing all that much about them
