Fiat has presented its quarterly sales results with plenty of talk, considerations and future predictions. While the company says its well-equipped to confront 2009, this has nothing to do with the big news.

From the presenation slides, reproduced by the BorsaItaliana (Italian stock exchange), Fiat says: “The fundamental plan 2007-2010 will not be influenced by the temporary deviations foreseen for 2009, except for the return of Alfa Romeo to the US market, which has been postponed to 2011.”

So Alfa will not be celebrating its 100 years with the ambitious and much-awaited re-conquest of America, once again delaying an appointment with history. We’re a little disappointed, and will see how 2009 develops for the group.
