Their commercials are now all about how: “Oh no one ever thought about this before” “This is such an innovation” “Fiat is great”. Fuck off Fiat, the Chaika had that in the 1960’s, that ain’t fucking new.

I think they botched the whole thing start to finish, but I still love them. It sucks that the model that I want is also the rarest and most expensive though.
