I think the Focus' butt is hideous. I always point and laugh. The taillights sit WAY to high if you ask me. But you didn't, so I'll shut up.

Hmmmmm...Punto sounds waaaaaaaaaayyyyyyyy to much like PINTO. Some of us can remember those. How about the Bobcat, same as a Pinto but I think you got the locking gas cap option.

No doubt it does resemble the Yaris! And, the more I look, the more I see similarities. Like the wheels.

I like it. I really like the Opel Corsa, too.

I don't laugh...necessarily but die a little inside as I know the sales people at the dealership make that a selling point...safety wise....
opel corsa looks like a civic Type R from certain angled pics...
and the fiat 500 front end looks too much like the last failed attempt of the Ford Thunderbird

i like the newer Fiat recently pictured in a thread here but I think if I ever moved to Europe I'd have to have a VW Polo.

that one looks a bit like the mazda2, the steep angle from rear to front does anyway.
nice looking car!

I'm seeing the yaris in the roof line/ door line cutoff
and in the swooping side flair...

here is my car if I move to Europe
530xi.... AWD and you know I would be taking it to the local tuner shop... and you know I would black it all out... maybe keep those stock wheels, they look pretty hard

When I lived in Taiwan, I drove a Peugeot like this for a while. Certainly not Toyota quality, but tons of race potential!
When I saw the Yaris for the first time, it reminded me of the 206, and I had to have one. Well, the Yaris doesn't have the character that the Peugeot has, but it's so much better in just about every other way.

Those Clio's are pretty bad ass, from what I can research on the net... wish someone would import one..... wonder what it would cost to get one here?

I've driven the Fiat cars in Italy and was amazed at how smooth the ride was.

yeah, a car not much bigger than our Yarii with a 200hp+ V6 in the back... it does not get much better than that :biggrin:
I see some for around 38,000 Euros second hand, but I can't seem to find a price for new ones (out of production maybe?).. pricey!

I think we could start a whole new thread on what car we would buy if we won the lottery
