2014 Fiat 500L now comes with a complimentary Italian family

Fiat's marketing machine has invaded Funny or Die, and the resulting web commercial is both entertaining and weird. Watch one couple buy the "most stylish" and "roomiest" car they've ever had, thinking they'd be able to transport golf bags and art supplies (and 32 basketballs?) only to have the roomy-for-a-Cinquecento back seat filled with a complimentary Italian family. In real life, we can't see this being a good thing; not only do they take up space, but their added weight most certainly would hurt gas mileage and performance.
But in commercial land, it comes off as funny, and Fiat does prove that the 2014 500L is roomy enough for five people (including the driver), if not golf bags, art supplies and 32 basketballs. Scroll down to watch amusing Internet short below.

This sweet Fiat 500 Lego kit could be a reality if it gets enough support

Lego has been on a roll the last couple years with kits for automotive gearheads, and there's no end in sight. The company just released a sweet VW Beetle kit and will soon launch a Caterham kit. That's no reason not to ask for more though, so we encourage you to support this Fiat 500 project. The project is on the Lego Ideas website, where people can upload projects to share with other builders. The website also lets people support their favorite projects, and with enough votes, the kit will officially be considered for production. In fact, that's what happened with the aforementioned Caterham kit. Why support this Fiat project, though? Well, just look at it. The quality is excellent, which is evident by how well the compact and curvy lines of the little Italian are captured in the blocky medium. It also has all the details consistent with Lego's most recent kits such as badge and license plate stickers, a comprehensive interior with pedals and tilting seats, opening doors, and a tiny brick version of the two-cylinder engine. The creator, who interestingly goes by the name saabfan, also added special touches like a removable luggage rack and a sunroof that can be opened up. And wouldn't the Fiat 500 be an excellent complement to Lego's Beetle and Mini Cooper kits? Even if this project receives enough support, it's no guarantee that it will make it to production. Licensing would be a big road block to a retail release, but it's not impossible. So check out the video above to see some of the great details, and head over to the project page to vote for it.

2019 Fiat 500X gets two-tone 120th Anniversary Edition

Fiat is 120 years old this year, so naturally it has created a special edition car to celebrate. Behold the 2019 Fiat 500X 120th Anniversary Edition in its two-tone glory. Every example will have the top half painted black to contrast nicely with three of the four available colors. It will be offered in a gloss white, a pearl white, a silver and in black. The last of those, of course, is the one of four that won't contrast with the roof. Besides the roof, the special 500X gets black mirror caps and black 18-inch wheels. There's also a smattering of 120th Anniversary badges around the exterior, plus standard LED headlights and fog lights. The interior has a black painted dashboard and a unique cloth upholstery with striped brown and black inserts in the seats. Unlike many special editions, the 500X 120th Anniversary Edition is relatively affordable with a base price of $27,230 including destination. That's just $995 more than the base Pop trim level. If you're interested, the special models will be on dealer lots by the end of the year.
