Topic: And GQ's Car of the Year is...

...the Fiat 500!

I've got no idea why GQ looks one model year further ahead than most COTY awards, but that is what it is.  I thought it was an interesting and good pick, though.  They cite the return of Italian style at sub-six-figures (not to mention sub-$20k), combined with remarkable fuel economy and an engaging driving experience.

I think Fiat-Chrysler is going to be very, very happy with how the Cinquecento works out for them.  I have this feeling it's going to be a huge hit in North America.

Define a HUGE HIT from a Nation of Americans who hate tiny cars,and from a Company(ies) in dire straits,have long memories and short on dealerships and pedigree in USA................I think their(GQ) PICS of the GLEE ladies in their skivvies are a bigger HIT............. ........and who are their target market Gen Y ers in the HIP STATES....................and College towns............IF they sell 40,000..it will be a first year MINI thang IMHO................

LOL.

GQ's actually got pretty good taste in cars, though car reviews are not a major part of what they do.  COTY last year was the MkVI GTI, if I recall correctly.

Only when GQ says it's okay.

Usher, Justin Timberlake, and Ne-Yo would all like to have a word with you.  Do you want to do a teleconference, or talk with each in turn?

The Yanks are worse than the down-easters.  So... no.  Take a message.  That is all.

Only in Toronto.

I think this car will be a hit with the 'hipsters'.  The Mini is going to feel the biggest impact of this cars success.

It's priced considerably lower than the Mini, with the top 500 priced about the same as the base Mini.
