Fiat might get 20% of Chryco

Check the pie chart.

So if Chr-iat becomes a go it looks like you should be able to qualify for a company car my stockholder!

Finance it again tony?

FI-YSLER

CHR-AT

FAI-LER

Eh, close enough.

Actually, as much as I am anti-Chryco, I hope that it turns out to be profitable venture....for anyone and everyone remotely associated.

I own two Chryslers a VW and a GM product as of this friday coming. The Chryslers both have 75,000 miles on them and look, sound and handle like brand new. The VW doesn't run. The GM is a parts car.

Forget Chrysler, This bailout is not about saving them.

Its about saving Cerbius, just look at the pie chart at the end of the article.

They are going to stick us (the taxpayers) with their crappy purchase

does this mean i could see a Fiat 500 in my driveway in the near future???

I think if anybody could save Chrysler, it might be Fiat. The italians are good at crisis management.

I would hope it would see me with either a 500 or a MiTo in my driveway in a couple of years

If they could get trains to run on time they can do almost anything

SRT12 anyone :D

Fiat needs/should reintroduce a modernized X1/9 and Spider stateside. Small cheap and effecient cars seems to be the real "hot items" as the SUV?Hybrid market is WAY down...

The Punto fits that bill.

Is it good? Is it European? Then no, you won't see it in the US.

Panda, Punto, 500, etc... All good things and everything that Chrysler had but lost.

This is about the only chance that Chrysler has, and then only if about 75% of Chrysler as it is now, is immediately axed. Personally, it would be best for me if the deal is done, although I believe the JK will somehow survive whatever happens to Chrysler.

Once everything shakes out, I have a big decision to make... Use my "employee discount" for an Alfa 8c, or a Ferrari F-430?
