Well the news release says "within a year"  Perhaps a 2012 model early 2011

Having just returned to Canada from the UK, I discussed FIAT products there with friends, in the UK they now have a bad reputation as "Rust Buckets" so buyer beware eh?

Agree - love it.  Went to the show yesterday.  Got lots of pics, will post later.

The Abarth was charcoal grey not black, just to be nitpicky  ;D
I wanted to put it in my pocket and take it home.
