FIAT and BMW Posted by ryan [Email] (#2222) [Profile/Gallery] (more from ryan) on Thu, 28 Apr 2011 21:48:22 In Reply to: What about FIAT?, Mark from Toronto, Thu, 28 Apr 2011 19:32:39 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
I'd say a combination of strong collaboration with FIAT and BMW, it doesn't need to be any sort of outright purchase at this point.
I like FIAT group cars (Alfa Romeo, Fiat, Lancia, Maserati and Ferrari), but I feel they are spread a bit thin at the moment. I'm not 100% convinced the FIAT/Chrysler CEO Marchionne is really a car guy. What is going on with Chrysler-Lancia, to the tune of what we've seen GM do with Opel-Vauxall, is a bit disappointing... to say the least.
That said, a new Alfa Romeo - SAAB collaboration on platforms could be interesting. The thing though is that many folks hope that Alfa returns to its RWD roots, where SAAB has respect staying FWD/AWD.
