Fiat Photo Bombs Volkswagen on Google Street View

Jalopnik reports Fiat conducted an elaborate Google Street View stunt in which the car manufacturer – with or without some inside information – was able to park a Fiat 500 outside the Volkswagen offices in Sweden just before the Google Street View camera car drove by capturing the moment.

The image is likely to be in the Google Street View database for at least a year so VW is just going to have to deal with it. Though we don’t doubt many who happen to view the image will simply assume the vehicle is a VW. Fiat should have affixed a giant Fiat decal to the side of the vehicle for a bigger slap in the face.
