Chrysler recently auctioned off Canada's first Fiat 500 for a whopping $85,000. Fiat is returning to North American shores and decided to celebrate by auctioning off the continents first Fiat 500 for charity.
All proceeds from the auction went towards Villa Charities, a Canadian charity that helps mentally ill and elderly Italian-Canadians in Toronto. Check out the auctioned off Fiat 500 above. I predict that that will be the first of many Fiat 500s soon to fill roads up and down North America in the coming years.
