Giant Drives Classic Fiat 500 - Car and Driver

[05cagnin]

Ohhh.... my car from 1969 to 1972 !!! Wath make love with my girls friend in this car !!!

[9pipe2]

11 people ain't big.

[CarGuy1368]

How about a Peel P50?

[smokpl]

This car is more advanced (especially suspension) than any modern US car :)

[CarGuy1368]

@smokpl Agreed lol

[weedmastersr]

@smokpl yea and you crash with a bicycle and die ! :))

[smokpl]

@weedmastersr

In Euroncap safety tests that car gained more points than US made Ford Ranger or Jeep Grand Cherokee :) US cars are big and looks cool, but comparing to European they are primitive, dangerous and with very poor handling. That is why we don't buy that junk in Europe :)

[videomanyak1]

Yes they are big peoplle!

[videomanyak1]

Fiat 500 in Usa

[RavensECONOMICbeast]

100% death if car crashed

[weedmastersr]

@RavensECONOMICbeast yea if it crashed with a bike :)) a car would be total annihilation !

[smokpl]

@RavensECONOMICbeast

Look at Euroncap site and compare crash tests results with for example Ford Explorer :) In Europe we know, how to build safe cars.

[ijonathanpro]

AHAH BELLISSIMO

[davidjb65]

Its not a seat belt he needs, its a gumshield

[AAAZ2A]

The beauty and the beast

[kleinmann321]

Anyone else waiting for him to hit a crack in the pavement, and lose all his front teeth on the roof?

[Alex19al]

@kleinmann321 Italian history X.....

[pugggs]

but will it blend?

[OneHappyCattle]

Pure entertainment of titanic proportions.

[Equalswin]

Does it have airbags?

[therealnacholibre]

How tall is he?

[DizzyMan24]

I can only imagine the faces on the drivers that passed him.

[integrafreak1]

wendy's!!!!

[joust671]

[willard903]

Not exactly safe driving procedures...., but I LOVE it! Great car and vid. Thx for posting.

[misterhed]

He would bash his teeth in or get beheaded if he crashed.

[theMstanglover]

Fiat knew what they were doing when they fitted that detachable roof.

[amazingsab]

How tall is this guy?

This clip is not the real thing.

[punchthedog]

@amazingsab 6ft 7in (approx 2.00 metres)

[abdulahamhed]

This Car is very nice,practical and seems made for children

[uwiwithanuzi]

I want a car that I can take on the bus with me.

[adamc260]

Hope he doesnt have an accident in that

[dim101080]

Awesome...

[ZeroGForce]

Well, that's one way to avoid crowded streets in a tiny car—drive on the sidewalk.

[the06bug]

I want this car!!!

[telephonic]

greatest car ever

[Pacolikespie1967]

Everyday would be like driving a go-cart in this, the same applying to the Mini...and an actual go-cart. Anyway, I'd like to have one.

[zaltamaltossi]

simply amazing

[litalover19]

Didn't realize the orignals were that small. Geez that would be scary to drive that on the main roads.

[madjimms]

@litalover19 Naw, just makes you realize how BIG other cars are.

[FSXgta]

I hope he wont get his head chopped off lol

[Laverdadduele1]

Fix

Tony



[FSXgta]

[andrea25]

ahahah great video

Fabbrica Italiana Automobili Torino ;-)

[thepowerfulnews]

LMFAO !!!!!

[GattiF50]

In the old Fiat 500 you had to double clutch since it did not have synchronized gears. For example you are in first and shift to neutral left go of clutch put in again and go to second so the gears don't grind :D

[Drag0nhideee]

I want to see a fat guy in that car HAHAHAHAHAHHAH

[JavoGTmusic]

i want this car

[SourGrey]

Throw a gxr motor in there and your gone. lol

[xairman565]

Poor man's convertible

[palebeachbum]

[naji1091]

[mk7912]

PEEL P50!

[HFLanciaStratos]

This would whole car would probably fit in an F430's engine bay...

[TheSpeakers20]

liter bike engine anyone

[shmikens]

what happens when it rains?

[Secretxchanel]

Wy he drives with the phone book up his ass?

[pheenix42]

if it gets you around, and keeps you out of the weather, who cares how little it is? You make adjustments to your life to accommodate whatever transportation you use, you know?

Definitely not an interstate cruiser...you could change lanes just by driving UNDER the semi-trailer! =D

[bravozza]

MR. BEAN! AHAHAHAHAHA LOOL

[chwuwd]

pure balls of steel, if the car flips, its instant GGed

[rlmotionpictures]

Probably the most cheapest & smallest Ferrari in the market today.

[steuarts]

just wait until he is rear ended and his face gets split in half

[fjtuig]

buuuuahahahahahahahahahahahaha­hahahaha

[Double07Commander]

I bet two people can pick this car. LOL

[wuestehu]

Mine is a 64, 500cc...I just posted videos SCCA SOLO SACRAMENTO MATHER FIAT 500 BAMBI CANARI

[coda623]

If these were easy to find I would get this as my first car. I never realized they were so small until I saw it next to the smart car.

[05Forenza]

love it

[soulflower666]

The Fiat Cinquecento - you more like wear it...

[ALEXvsSPIZZO]

olso my mom had this car 20 years ago in white color, cabrio :)

and my friend have fiat 500 abart version... for race

[dankoch2010]

I want one.

[jeffrey19621]

Great VDO There are a few of these in Thailand . I bet an electric conversion would work nicely. I dont drive here . walking near a road is dangerous enough.

[EgaoNoGenki]

This looks like a car for children. Was Italy's driving age in the 1960s 9 years old?

[TheMike16112]

Screw your Hummer. I GOT A FIAT 500! BEAT THAT!

[remmsbo2]

The Simpsons giant with vw beetle EPIC!!!

[McLarenMercedes]

This man must be 7 feet tall and probably taller.

Most normal sized people fit in it, even the regular Italian.

[liangconghui]

that's a crazy car :)

[oj98juice]

im twelve and im saving up for a fiat 500f 1968 as a fun little racer im 1/3 of the way done saving up i hope i can get one so i can convert it

[talldude123]

haha Wendy's FTW!

[D0nQuix0te]

[wildone16969]

Funny!

[nintendoatarikiller]

Wendy's FTW

If you think that car is small, look up the Peel P50

[tutanklore]

I have this car!!!! the great fiat 500

[MisterMinnesota]

@tutanklore hey, how much does something like that cost? Ballpark figure? Where ever you live.

[tutanklore]

@MisterMinnesota i live in italy (tuscany).it costs around 6000 euro (the original).Where I'm from there are a lot of fiat 500...we like "retrò style"

[MisterMinnesota]

@tutanklore aah, thanks, that is soo cool. I also like the classic fiats, but I'd take one of these any day. Great looking car. Thanks.

[215alessio]

@MisterMinnesota 3000 to 6000 euro depending on status

the abarth version costs about 10 000 euro restored = 14500 USD

[MisterMinnesota]

@215alessio hah, thanks, figured it out by now

[Schuassen]

I want that car

[hitachi088]

Monsieur Bean drives a classic Mini Cooper.

[underballbutter]

[fabiboss]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAA

[alex9289]

@fabiboss

hhhahahhahahahhahahahaahahahah­ahah

[bikercc]

this would be a lot cooler if the driver was shorter, that way the reason for the car existing would make some sense

[bliglum]

You can tell he's sitting on some sort of booster seat. Good for a laugh I guess.

[revolutionpm]

He will die from the fries long before the car kills him.

[SwagMaster9000]

i saw a car like this outside my job parked right next to me and i seriously waited about 30 min just so i can see the person driving it and give them a handshake for being such a bad ass! >:) to bad the person never came

[ducatinova]

how big is he???? damn. I'm 5 11 and fit just fine in one of these.

[exeuroweenie]

It's cute as hell but I'd feel like a pedophile driving it.

[wildone16969]

I've heard of micro cars, but now that's totally an extreme version of one.

[daltonkirby]

That thing needs a small block chevy!

[ilovecats748]

@daltonkirby you mean the small block chevy needs a 500 on it lol

[garbokuba]

This is one big hoax, the streets of American cars in the workout sheets and the hitchhiker wanted to go to Turin to another continent that is stupid

[cascaso1]

man if he crashes hes a dead man

[thais1964]

great

[pe6obutilkata]

the best litle car ever made it just puts a smile to my face

[Nvidiamaster123]

its like driving a golf car lol

[heartpower8]

this is fantastic, thanks guys .... always been my favorite car :)))

[lin520999]

God damn it !

I love this car !!!!!

[hynesrf]

The data for which vehicle manufactures use is old. The avg height/weight is increasing & many drivers have to sacrificing safety for fuel economy. As a C&D reader, I would love if they did an investigative story specifically on the conflicting issues of design, safety, ergonomics, and the fuel economy dilemma that many more people than you think face when trying to shoe horn themselves into a vehicle that does not reasonably accommodate many drivers. PS Jared, watch your teeth when you break.

[hynesrf]

Awesome video…funny. I’m 6’4” and find 99% of vehicles available on the market painful to drive (including many “Full Sized” Trucks). I am not a giant as some of the kids I’ve seen in high school are much bigger than this and still growing. Vehicle manufactures try to capture...say...the 95 percentile of human stature in their design. Unfortunately, while 6’4’ is larger that average, this stature is far from unusual. Jared here is 6’7 I believe….Not a Giant by any means.

[panhighma]

cute :)

[egulija]

Those guys must have put smth on their seats, the car is not that small !!!

A very cool video though ;-)

[BobbieandSteveDooley]

And when your face hits that roof in a crash, we'll all be laughing at you!

[jema2009]

TOY CAR JAJAJAJA

[divooriginale]

OMG! I never realized how small those cars were!

[jema2009]

IST FUNNY POOR GUY IN SMALL CAR FIAT 500-600=SHIT.

[Mu4dD1b15]

My dad looked like that when he drove our MG A.

[AngryScottish]

Car and Driver are starting to become funny... maybe they should be the American version of Top Gear?

[LittlPussi]

Nice car! I don't know how tall this guy is but a friend of mine is 7ft.2 and he used to do the same thing with his Citroen 2CV. 

[Kbrusky15]

this would be me. hahaha

[wow85]

God he can probably fit only maybe 6bags of groceries in that car or a dozen for that matter.

[DonVoghano]

@wow85 My uncle had one of those, sturdy cars they were. We once rode in 5 on that, and while we did feel like sardines, the car actually ran fine! :D

[migajek]

what is the music here?

[blackpool321]

driver is handsome hunk

[pewse]

so awesome. want one so bad.

[DJTEVAdotCOM]

if he gets in an accident, his head would be decapitated

[DJTEVAdotCOM]

so cute

[TOPSECRETEVENTS]

LMAO

[ricciarelloderoma]

Well, this was and still is a symbol of Italy together with the lesser known Bianchina, we had three of these in our family and used to drive in it with two adults in the front and two kids in the back. The car is small but not as small as it appears in this video, it's the guy who drives it that is huge, the Fiat 500 was produced by the millions in Italy, it cost about $ 4000 to buy a decent one nowadays.

[bradmann85]

wow. if the car gets a flat you dont need a jack. just flip it over on its side to change the tire

[dpajc056]

This is PRECISELY the reason why I hate when people look at me in awe and "congradulate" me on being so tall. Heck, we're not living in stone age anymore; If I can't even fit in a car I like, what's the benefit of being tall!??!

[5959512]

@dpajc056 woman probably assume you have a giraff size penis

[kargmeister1337]

what do they get for mpg.

[atimatyijoda]

Idiots! Great!:))))

[dlospi]

don't ask me how, but i've been in one with other 3 peoples, here in Italy.

The scary part was when the pilot took a hillroad barely large enough... I looked downside tru the window and I saw the void under, omfg!

(i was "sitting" in the rear seat and my legs were one thing with my body XD)

[dod3334]

you wont get into an accident in this car simply because it is a head turner...

[6yearcoma]

Reminds me of police academy and bubba smith driving.

[gerfall]

LOL the sidewalk!

[Turbosaunderground]

jejeje, I want one of that 500 :)

[toyotaprius79]

put him in a peel p50 foe next episode

[rockwoj23]

heheheh nice love fiat 500 !!

Now Poland fiat 126 p maluch !!

[sweetharmony4jesus]

I have a 67 and I'm just as tall and i love mine

[xBugJuicex]

hahaha it looks even funnier beside the Smart lol...

[blackpool321]

handsome hunk

[FContreras85]

This is awesome. It reminds me of Mr. Bean's Mini Cooper (the Fiat 500 is smaller than the Mini).

[myweedislikemedusa]

haha wipers? what for?

[kisszabo1]

bjútifulll

[soupahfast]

front end collision = faceless office giant

[paulhojda]

@soupahfast actually your face is the crumple zone hahaha

[rock3tcat]

Fiat 500 = Engineering Ingeniousness. :D

[alekscooool]

dude i want that car so bad

[davide1975]

i am 6'2 tall i have the same car but i think this guy is taller than me

[SomethingOtaku]

@davide1975 So it's possible to fit comfortably? I'm 6'2'' as well and while I was considering one of these cars, this is the first time I got a good look at how small it really is.

[davide1975]

@SomethingOtaku well i have it and i like it in fact i am mad about it, its confortable but dont wait for the same confort of another car.... show pictures after get me in facebook davide candeias

[vitorskoda]

I'm about 6'1. Will I fit WITH the roof on?!

[ElyriaRedneck]

i want one

[Darklordkime]

chick magnet ( i have )

[KillerRedVine]

How much to one of those go for?

[dantefrat]

@KillerRedVine

They haven't made these in about 40 years now, so they're beginning to achieve collectible status. You can generally pick up one in reasonably good condition for around $8000 US. I have one that I bought about 2 years ago and paid around $7200 for. It was in fair condition and I subsequently spend about another $2000 on bodywork, paint, and some mechanicals.

[MyriadesusTV]

even if the car had airbags it wouldn't matter

[Pacolikespie1967]

Fiat 500= Awesome

[SVWerderBremenFanNr1]

1:22 xD chill

[OldtimerMercedesBenz]

Haha he would crack his nose when hard-braking

[billygoatdawg081992]

I wish I had on of these! They are so cute and awesome! Fiat FTW!

[spencerjengland]

I like how he shakes his head at the "Smart" car.

[spencerbrandsen]

DE SELBY.

[TOPSECRETEVENTS]

LMAO THATS TO FUNNY...

and i thought my miata was small

[EefkeVlinder]

I love these cars!! I have one too, god I wish I had my driverslicence.

[TheGtaboys]

My city!!!! TORINO xDD

[Turkamel]

stupid americans, always loughing of the others, if they don't see big things then don't get them... fucking americans, always big and always too much

[bigtomu]

At least we can spell loafing.

[lockdown260]

Fix your grammar and spelling before calling someone stupid, idiot.

[Turkamel]

At least, I can speak your language. I bet you can't speak spanish, portuguese or italian or even tried to learn a new language... lol

By the way, it is very christian to insult another persons!

Arrivederci stronzzino figlio di putanna!
