Don't know about that. Last time Chrysler was "partners" with Benz - - until Benz slowly took over. Then they up and left.

I read this as very-positive. The Italians make great SMALL cars, and are willing to help a US company build some, which is what the Chinese market for US cars have been screaming-for for years (Chinese gas 'might' be state-subsidized, but it ain't cheap there, either). Fiat gets access to US models, as well as a large foothold into the US market for the re-introduction of Alfa Romeo - now Fiat has a US Logistics pipeline already in-place, a dealer network for sales and service....etc. Everybody wins.

BTW, last time I read, Fiat wasn't a cash-buyer of Chrysler, so who says Chrysler is now a 'component' of Fiat??? The relationship was more 'partner' than 'owner/ownee'.....

A friend once told me that it doesn't matter where the car is assembled.
What matters is where the money goes.

You know it's funny, here in Canada, most refer to GMs, Fords or Chryslers
as "domestic".  As far a I know, Canada doesn't have a domestic
car, or
hasn't for a very long time; we just bolt a number of different models
together for other countries.

Here, a Honda is just as domestic as a Ford, although many here would argue
with me.

Besides, with all the car manufacturers co-mingling ownership it's
hard to
say what's an American company and what's not?  Trace a Crown Vic
and it
may
be assembled in Canada using parts from all over the world. How that an
American product?
