Opel? That is GM.

Fiat is no longer the company it was 26 years ago when Spiders would routinely disintegrate their rear ends, or mysteriously burn out bearings.

Fiat tried to work with Opel to help develop their new multi air port (or whatever it is called) engine. Those engines and Fiats in general will not be in Chrysler dealers for maybe two years. Fiat will have their hands full trying to fix a company so perverted by MBA school principles.

However the time to buy is ripe. For weeks, rumors were that Fiat also wanted to buy Opel, Saab, and GM's British company Vauxhall. I don't know how. But Marchionne may be that aggressive now that Fiat makes good cars and now that America must sell itself off to pay for "Mission Accomplished" and other 'business school' fiascos.
