  | Fiat Linea to be unveiled in Istanbul  Here's the first pic of Fiat's new sedan, the Linea. It will be unveiled at Istanbul motor show in November. It will be built in Turkey and will probably be available in most European markets next year. It will measure 4.56 meters in length which means that it's bigger than Fiat's most recent attempt at the sedan market, the Marea... No info on engines yet. Source: Autoweek.nl. (Article in Dutch, which I don't speak, but I think I got the facts right  )What do you guys think?

| Re: Fiat Linea to be unveiled in Istanbul It seems people see all sorts of influence in the design... I was thinking it looked Ford-ish.

| Re: Fiat Linea to be unveiled in Istanbul I agree with Mike and Siko. It looks very ford-ish...especially like the new Mondeo.

| Re: Fiat Linea to be unveiled in Istanbul it's very good for FIAT IMO. Mr Luca is doing great with Fiat. BTW, it does have some design clues from other cars but this doesn't mean it's a bad car. Let's not be negative on every new non-german car

| Re: Fiat Linea to be unveiled in Istanbul Interesting how many cars this reminds us of: Audi/VW;Ford;Volvo;Renault. I bet all perceptions are true. I think this it is indicative of the relative high standard that the cars in general enjoy nowadays. Cars in general are pretty sharp looking and good. There have been many occasions I have had ar ride in someone else's car (going to lunch or something), and be it a Mazda, Acura, Chrysler Pacifica, Cadillac Escalade or Kia Spectra, those cars are quite nice relatively speaking. I am not suggesting any ranking or anything of the kind. In general, the disparities of a few decads ago don't seem to be so evident anymore. So, no wonder we see elements from different cars in this Fiat.
