    Excerpt from AP:

    "Fiat Auto SpA has reached an agreement with Ford Motor Co. to work together on new models of their small cars, the companies said Friday.

    Ford said the companies have signed a "memorandum of understanding" for the development of two small cars: a revival of Fiat's iconic "Cinquecento" and a new Ford "Ka.""


    Ferrari not involved, but interesting nonetheless. Out with GM, in with Ford.

    Wow, that would be fun if they brought the 500 back to the US. My dad had one when he was in the Air Force which he bought brand new. I don't know how he fit in it though as he's over 6' tall. Then again Ford might try to pull a fast one and just rebadge their Ford 500 as a Fiat to save money as they tend to do. :D Let's hope not.
