Yep, it's too bad Marchionne demanded a separate dealer network. The Fiat 500's a cute car that has some appeal but I think a lot of people will reject it once they learn about Fiat's spotty dealer network.
It's unfortunate no one in Auburn Hills had the courage to tell Marchionne he was wrong. In my opinion that's one of Chrysler's greatest weaknesses because Marchionne's already demonstrated he doesn't have a firm grasp on automotive retail in the U.S.
