With all the fuzz around the new Fiat 500 that I totally adore, Nokia realized it would be a good marketing move to use a 72 superminis for their ‘Nokia Connectors’ promo tour. How will they be used? Nokia intends to send 250 young people on the UK streets, in parks, on the beaches or at the parties to promote the true potential of their phones and should help the Brits to “unlock the magic in their mobiles”. Nokia is very interested in getting the whole thing rolling, particularly in relation with their new 6220 phone.

I wonder if they’re going to get a bunch of these Fiat 500 or if Apple is going to do anything about it. Maybe they can buy/rent those marvelous MINI Rickshaws and start a tour to take on Nokia?

Hamann, the guys that have made a name for themselves for tuning Bimmers, came out with a nice surprise for Fiat owners. So if you have a Fiat 500 and want to make it a badass the Sportivo package by Hamann is what you may need.  It includes new 17-inch alloy wheels and a 30mm lowered chassis for improved handling and drivability, a new sport exhaust system for thrilling sounds, a new sports braking system and a re-programmed integrated control unit that boosts the power with 15 hp up to 90 hp.

Not a bad look but I’m not sure if they managed to get the desired results.
