Re: Another great FIAT commercial
I don't think that these cars are crap. As small cars they are extremely solid built.
My wife had a Fiat 500. A guy crashed into her Fiat with a Volvo. My wife was unhurt and I think with some other small car she would not have this good luck ! So for me these small cars are really great cars! She now drives an Abarth 500. I really like it too, especially if I remember what happened! Best greetings from Switzerland, Franz

Re: Another great FIAT commercial
My first car was a Fiat 850 spyder. Then a 124 (?) drove the wheel's off of both getting excellent mileage with little maint. That was a very long time ago.

The 124 vert was a great little car and still pretty today. I drove the X1/9 once out in Southhampton, and it was like on rails. What a fun car. Those were the days when u could afford a mid-engine Italian car and a place to "crash" in the Hamptons for the weekend.

Re: Another great FIAT commercial
This car looks very much like the 124 I owned. Fun is a way to describe the car. And yoour right Dom , those days were the best. Brings back many fond memories. The wifee even remembers that ride.

Re: Another great FIAT commercial
Mine was a canary yellow with chrome bumpers and a luggage rack on the back deck. Wheels were a rally style with hub caps. I remember my dad paying $600 for it and we towed it back home. Spent the next year before I had my license working on it and fixing it up. Drove it all through high school. The heater didn't work all thst good so in the cold months I ran an extension cord out to it and put one of my moms old hair dryers in it. I'd plug it up before I jumped in the shower and by the time I was ready to leave it'd be nice and toasty inside

Re: Another great FIAT commercial
One of my buddy's had a 124 in the weirdest color ever. Can't think of the name. Looked like tomato soup with some milk added to it.
