It struck me the other day when I heard someone talking about a “Fiat 500 popular” at work, that people don’t seem to realise that there was a musical theme to the 500 when it was launched.

See the attachment for the names of all the launch colours of the 500. Pop stands for pop music, not popular as in the Ford spec level! All the colours are types of music or dances or things associated with music such as mods.

Oh and the part numbers are the part numbers for touch up paint which were posted by the late great grimwau

Well spotted!Volare(Blue!) ...oh oh oh ...y cantare ...oh oh oh !
