Fiat 500 Ghia

The perfect Riviera golf cart.

Basket weaved seats for maximum comfort. :D

Not at all surprising to find that the new 500 also got the Ghia treatment. Except it's a slightly less spartan EV called the Tender Two. Created by Carrozzeria Castagna.

I don't like how low that bumper is considering the environment around the car. It wouldn't clear a sleeping policeman, never mind a landmine!
 
^ Ralliarts are RARE! Those Ralliart Sportbacks (aka. hatches) are already considered as UNICORNS!
 
Well, I barely see any Lancers at all in the US.

What are you talking about...they're all over the place. I've seen probably as many as @The Stig Farmer has across the pond it's not a special car really

The only lancer that I've heard of being rare in some sense from this gen is the claimed detuned evo version. I've never seen one but it came out in like 09 or something and had around 230 hp. Also what @The Vanishing Boy said I've never heard of nor seen a ralliart sportback and only have seen a ralliart in the sedan package.

It's state-based. Some states see a lot of Lancers (not many) and some see almost none.

Well I don't know about that if you live in the city you're going to see plenty of everything. If you live out in no-mans land it's up to what ever luck wishes you to see that day I suppose.
 
Auto Speciali Veleno. The most Italian-sounding car ever produced... in Bromsgrove.

You can tell what the donor car was just by looking at the lights.

Either you could keep the engine that came with said donor car, or have a more befitting 4.6 Modular V8 installed. Though of the 4 they've ever produced, one has a 1.6 Zetec from a Mondeo and another was given a Toyota 3.0 turbo. Possibly an I6 from a Mark III Supra.

The Equus Bass 770.. Featured in one of these upcoming PS4 games, which is how I found out about it.

My question is, what is the point of a modern '67 fastback that costs over 200K?
 
That is an eyesore.

Re: Lancers

@The Stig Farmer @ProjectWHaT @LMSCorvetteGT2

Stig is right, there are quite a few of those Lancer sportbacks in the UK. Lancers themselves are not uncommon because, let's not forget, the Lancer is just a car from Mitsubishi. The Lancer Evolution, now that is a rare creature.

Which Evo though, I've seen plenty so I wouldn't call it rare unless it's one of the ones I talked about the only one I didn't mention was the MR and I think that is a more rare case than the GSR more so with the MR Touring.

Too bad the never made an estate version of this Lancer, at least none that I've ever heard of
