Fiat Coupe

Postby Gwyn » Wed Jan 24, 2007 1:47 pm

Hi all,

Does anyone have any experience of the Fiat Coupe ?

Love the look of the car, and the interior.

Would love to get one. Has anyone driven them ?

A late model turbo is worth looking at. Nice looking cars with good handling and performance if looked after.
Only downside would be possible reliability issues - especially as the car is getting on in age.

Wouldn't change from an FTO to a Fiat Coupe to be honest! - there are better options out there.

It quotes the Fiat as 195bhp at the start of the vid i.e. the 16valve Turbo version circa '95. The n/a model was 145bhp IIRC...
