THE Commercial

This commercial struck a chord deep within me:


A little seductive for my usual taste, but this was THE commercial for me.  Why?

Because I REMEMBER the moment I saw a Fiat 500--October 2008, Malaga, Spain.  I couldn't get enough of that baby car. 

When we got home, I remember looking all over the internet, and discovering that they were not for sale in the US, and wouldn't be for a number of years.

Now is the time.

Unfortunately, I don't think they come with seating for seven.
Sigh.

Can't you just see me behind the wheel?  
Or is the blue more my color?

Fiat 500 Lounge.

Sigh.

It will never happen.

But I refuse to stop dreaming.

  1. I CAN see you in that car, but it is hazy future. You will drive the egg when your nest is empty.

  4. Well Jen - we must have similar taste as I love the Fiat Bambina as it's called here in NZ. It looks very similar to the one in the commercial. Like you I will have to wait as there would not be enough room for my four kids.

    Onto other news I am now through all my treatment and am trying to get my head around the term 'survivor'. I am still of the patient mindset so will give it time. I am slowly growing hair - it seems to be coming in straight instead of the waves I used to have but at this stage I'll just take hair thank you.

  6. I made my 11 year old look away on that one. Heh. Personally I loved the Dorito commercial where the baby stole the chips from the tree house. Great!
    That car would look great on you!

  8. Very cute! There will come a day when you'll need a little-toy-car because you'll be zipping around on errands when your last wee one is in school.

  9. I loved the car we had in Spain too! I would pay for a small diesel car that had power to spare and got fab gas mileage!!
