General Arbath - Geneva 2008

Very cute indeed.
Now, how much will they ask for it, and when will it get the new valve actuation system to give it the economy and emissions. This comes with the Alfa Mito in 2009, ans so I guess the rest of the 'Fiat' range will be adapted soon after...one more year to wait then?
 
I'm still not keen on this yer know... I think the interior looks great - lovely sporting touches and the leather bits with red stitching look fantastic. The alloys look fantastic too! But going by the quality of Fiat's other two-tone alloys the quality of the finish won't be up to much :( I just can't my head around the front. It looks like it's been smacked in the face and it's become all swollen. I also feel the rear bumper is too square... I dunno, I was just expecting more.
 
Interior looks very nice...that has to be the coolest logo anywhere!
 
Took these pics yesterday. In Geneva for press day but returning to the UK tonight.

I think the interior is wonderful too, especially 'my' red leather seats. I agree about the wheels though; will they be well made or flaky jobbies that give up at he first sign of bad weather? As for the nose; I don't mind, I even like it. I believe there might be oil coolers in their somewhere, certainly for the SS version, so it has a purpose, and I like the lack of chrome. I'd have to do without that stripe though!

Very grateful for the pics by the way - first on the net of such quality.
