That little spoiler gadget is actually one of the top bows and it also contains the CHMSL or center brake light if you prefer. When the top is down you still have a third brake light visible, that way they didn't have to tool up a special deck lid for the 500C models.

I fit into it just fine Sam, and I'll just stand aside as the descendants of Italian immigrants to this fine country throw things at you for calling a Fiat "French"...tsk tsk tsk.

Did get to drive it little bit tonight, for tiny 1.4 putting out a "thundering" 102hp, its pretty perky around town. The standard "Parking Assist" sonar is a hoot on a car that's only 11.5 feet long, like you can ever find a space that is too tight for a car this small.

Michelle is one happy camper, and the car already has a name, its called Souris...or Mouse in French.

Took my Panel, Morticia out for a little ride, had to go pick up the ol lady and had to go by my Moms, a bird took refuge in her kitchen vent over the stove and got lost and I had to remove the fan and grab it and let it go outside.

Birds seem to have yanked at the vents outside screening so that will have to be replaced.

Low to mid 40's out today, come on SPRING!

Mike, this is a great car for the Lady. It seems that you are a exemplary husband (at least, my woman is confident in it).
This car - stylish / Italian, rapid, and (do not be surprised) inside spacious. I am well acquainted with this car in 2010 and said confidently. And if you have the 1.4 Engine & Manual transmission - it's just a plague on wheels.

But one thing the guys are right: Mike, when you sit behind the wheel, drivers will take you for a girl. Once I had this pleasure during the two days when the "piloting" the Peugeot 206. My car was under repair at the time, and I took my girlfriend's car. A sense of - I put on my ass the skirt and a stockings, and in this way go through the city.

It's a "Girly" car, no arguments from me there Andrey, but Michelle is happy and that is the most important thing in the world to me. I'll still borrow it from time to time, just because its fun to drive, and I don't mind being seen around town driving a "motorized mouse".

Motor mouse, sounds like another photoshop moment, some minni mouse ears, maybe a couple whiskers.

I drove mine in the sun shine, and saw 3 HHR SS's two orange and one flash blue. Wow it is pretty here when the sun comes out.

surf is up !!
Fiat is an Italian company. I also find them to be very ugly but thats just my opinion.
