Rumor has it that when Coca-Cola asked the designers of their new-generation fountain machines to come up with something new, that they also told them they wanted it to look and feel like a Ferrari.

Of significant importance is that the machine is also data-linked directly into Coke HQ, so that they number crunchers can get an understanding of trends and adjust flavor offers accordingly. Not a bad system to do new flavor tests on either, huh?

Looking forward to Fanta Limonada. It will save us a trip to Europe just to get one.
