A different Fiat 850
When I hear Fiat 850, I think roadster. That and the Siata Spring are the only two 850 variants we’ve posted. The 850 was, however, offered in sedan, coupe, wagon and van variants, as well. Today’s subject car is the two-door sedan. I really like this car for its quirkiness. Naturally, the driving experience would be…

Cool Fiat 124 Coupé (CC)
Here’s one you don’t see often, the Fiat 124 Coupé, this being the third generation, known as the 124 CC.

Cool car, crazy price?
Here we have a very unusual Fiat 124 wagon. The seller claims it has only a few needs. $7,000 seems like a lot, but these don’t change hands very often, so it’s hard to value. The seller was going to swap in a bigger engine, but we’d keep it stock (maybe). Click for Craigslist ad…
