Heh…. one must wonder what someone was thinking when he named a car company “Fiat” (let it be).

That’s almost as good as naming Chevy’s economy car “Nova” and trying to sell it in Mexico.

Funny, I just mentioned the story about the Nova to someone else. Do you know the one about Coke’s attempt to market its products in China with the slogan “Coke adds life?” It translated as “Coke brings your ancestors back from the dead.”
