I really dont care about some of the jeeps. Those compasses were horrible, heavy, impractical cars.



And lets be honest, there was a reason these cars weren't selling to begin with. Without government intervention, none of their models would be back at all.
 
That's awesome news, I love <a href="http://www.alfaromeo.com/cgi-bin/pbrand.dll/NEWALFA_COM/controller/home.aspx?language=1">Alfa Romeo</a>, I would deffinately consider one when they're available...



I owned a GTV6 in the UK, it was an awesome Car unfortunately Alfa's depreciate at a frightening rate over there...



Has anyone seen the new Fiat 500 retro Car? It's along the same lines as the Mini and new Beetle...if they introduce them over here I think they'll do very well...

I like Alfa Romeo - they do some nice looking cars. But not a big fan of Fiat. I used to have a Fiat Uno when I was in England (it had the nickname of 'lemon'). If you lent against the panels you would dent the car - it was that cheap

My '85 Toyota does the same thing. It's not "cheap", it's just shaving every ounce of weight possible in order to max out fuel efficiency. There are only so many things you can do to an engine to increase efficiency and at some point, you have to start shaving ounces everywhere you can find them... or just chop off the back end, ala Smart Car.



Everything I have seen of the AR/F line just screams UGLY.

While it's not like Dodge was knocking people's socks off... this is a sexy car:
