I know this is just what a lot of people here deem as a silly Photoshop exercise but c'mon, this would be good!

Wasn't Fiat going to return with the 500x?

Few (4-5) years ago when idea of R5 cars was mentioned for first time the Fiat company said they are thinking about using Lancia Ypsilon as R5 car. But it was all, just thinking about it and nothing more. Moreover Lancia is dead, isn´t she? (it must be SHE, Lancia is a legend and can´t be called IT) Anyway Fiat 500X is "auto stupido , mamma mia" (sorry I was on vacation in Rome last week and I am still in half italian mode :-D ) I think Fiat 500X is big and it is not proper car for rallying...but Mini Countryman is the same story. ...HaCo, have you really heard something about Fiat 500X from reliable source?

Is there even somebody left in Fiat who can build it? AFAIK the people responsible for Punto S2000 moved to Lotus to take part in the infamous Exige R-GT story.

This story seems to suggest that some FCA executives want Lancia to make a new Delta Integrale before winding the brand down.

Though Sergio Marchionne doesn't seem at all interested in doing that. If you ask me if they keep Lancia going they should make a Golf R/A45 AMG/Focus RS rival i.e. a new Delta Integrale and a new Stratos. But then my opinion is worth chuff all.
