Car Review: The Fiat 500C

In , Alexandra Straub takes a ride in the topless Fiat 500C, which she says has its flaws... but they're charming flaws, for sure.

"While its imperfections should cause me to think about ever wanting to drive or own one, I still can't seem to stop loving this little car. I like its quirkiness and the fact that it’s not perfect.

"I love the exterior colour: Espresso. It sparkles in the sun and has a warm richness to it."

...

"I feel like I'm back in grade school, sitting on the grass field at lunch, plucking the petals of a dandelion, one by one, saying, "I love it, I don't love it, I love it, I don't love... I LOVE IT!"

Rob Sass takes a look at the best classic cars you can get for less than 25-Grand, including a hot Ford Mustand, a Thunderbird, a manly Cadillac, and a really classic classic – a 1927 Ford Model A.

"The Model A was The Godfather II to the Model T's The Godfather," he writes. "If you look at American period photos from the 1930s-40s, it sometimes seems like there was nothing else on the road."
