This one-of-a kind special edition Fiat 500 is painted in Bossa Nova white and red roof with unique calfskin exterior customization by the Umbrian master craftsman Stefano Conticelli. It’s hard to distinguish the new face lifted Fiat 500 than its predecessor, but one can easily identify this special edition Fiat 500 in the flow of traffic. Stefano Conticelli used specially treated natural honey gold colour calfskin leather wrapped around car’s iconic style elements such as wheel arches, rear light clusters, headlights and chrome – plated whiskers to enhance their presence. The convertible roof is in red colour with leather covered basket on the tailgate while wing mirrors have been done up in mahogany wood.
