It looks like the "new" Flavia is dead, at least in saloon form anyway. The Convertible is going to make it over to Europe by all accounts.

There's more info on today's Italiaspeed pages.

According to the article it's too costly to get a diesel engine to fit and would cost $15-20 million to re-engineer the Chrysler 200's headlights for the EU regulations!
Good, does the convertible have different headlamps then ???

No, but you can get lights from absolutely anything and stick em on, apparently it will still be a Lancia.
