[Spridgets] Le Macchine d'Italia (No LBC)

[David Riker]

Two years ago, Fiat was on the brink of bankrupcy selling irrelevant 
products of questionable quality. Fiat was so bad off that GM paid TWO 
BILLION DOLLARS to get out of a partnership.  How is it that the world can 
forgive them and forget all their past automotive sins in TWO years, but 
people still hold GM accountable for shit they built in the 70's and 80's? 
God, Fiat... ???  We should just let the Chinese have Chrysler, the quality 
would probably be better.  I mean they are valuing Fiat's engine technology 
at EIGHT BILLION DOLLARS.  For eight Million (one less zero) , I can have 
the chineese disassemble a couple of 500's and replicate them in under two 
months.  I'm stumped.
