The strikine Fiat Adventure is a concept car that actually changes color. With its unique design, the Fiat actually didn't need anymore bells or whistles but the fact it changes from yellow to red is pretty cool. I suspect the paint is really the irridescent paint that you often see on tricked out 'fast and furious' cars. Giz describes, "Designed by Centro Estilo Fiat do Brasil, the Concept Car Adventure is powered by a 167 bhp five-cylinder 2.4 litre engine from the Fiat Stilo Abarth. The two-seater Adventure is painted in color-changing paint and accordingly varies in appearance from yellow to red. The adventure has four-wheel-independent suspension, adjustable shock absorbers and Pirelli Zero 285/60 R18P tyres running on 18x9.5 wheels."
