I was alerted to this by Evo magazine, Britains best performance car related mag.
'Fiat has produced a limited edition 'Michael Schumacher' version of its Seicento Sporting featuring sideskirts, rear spoiler and 14 inch alloys. The steering wheel and gearknob are leather trimmed. Each car gets its own metal 'Schumacher' identity plate with serial number. Five thousand will be built. I must admit to not being familiar with the base model so looked it up. Front wheel drive, 75bhp per ton 0-60mph in 13.8 sec and top speed of 93mph. surely when you are worth as much as TGF you can afford to say 'No, I'm not going to endorse rubbish, you can keep your money, I have plenty already.' Is an inability to refuse known as 'the L'oreal syndrome?' |

As a Seicentop sporting owner I thought wow ! bigger engine, more power, better suspension etc etc, but NO. Same car with some very tacky shuey stickers. Come on chaps don't waste winning the world championship producing second rate tat like this.

But anyway 5.000 will be sold very quickly!
Hey isn't a super-seicento also a supercar? It's super 'cause it's the only way to pass a traffic jam at Rome on the trottoir (can somebody tell me the english word for it...please)!!! That's a supercar!!! |
