I know what you mean. I respect the Fit, but that's about it. I regard them as the most over-rated car company in existence.

I thought about buying a Fiat X1/9 years ago. My brother-in-law, a VW salesman said that he wouldn't say anything except, "Fiat is the only car company that an extended warranty isn't offered on" Interesting.

Still, I want to see/drive the 500 too.

Yeah, hook me up with a Fiat 500 Abarth edition! Can you tell I'm into micro cars? ;)

One of the happier occassions in my time was in 1961 when I was allowed three "touring" laps at Lime Rock in one of Roosevelt Racing's Fiat Abarth Zagato 850 Bialbero Record Monza Coupes. "Bialbero" meant "twin overhead cam," not "twin overhead bubble" as in the 750s. You can't imaging how nervous I was about breaking something; I am sure I was driving a lot slower than I could have. Beautiful little GTs. Roosevelt Racing was the first stable that I ever saw that showed up with a semi-transporter. I was a "go-fer" for Gaston Andrey (Framingham, MA) at the time (2.5 Maserati Tipo 61).
