Fiat 500 epidemic

Always when we land a primary difference is immediate - cars. Different models, smaller sizes and shapes, brands we don't know about here in the US, models from familiar brands we don't see here, and trends. This year it was the Fiat 500 - it seemed like everywhere we went Fiats were everywhere and spreading, like an epidemic a virus of cars, cute cars in different colors geared toward young people, zipping through little town roads, easy to park. Yes, I am pining after one, maybe a gucci model or the light green with a light interior, roll back top, and a stick, get me on the road in Europe in one of those. Unfortunately, I share my husband's car obsession and he has fed mine over the years, talking about cars, looking at cars, researching cars, driving cars, fixing cars, not enough time or money for all the cars we would like to own and drive!
