Actually, I like a of the old Fiats. I used to work in a race shop that specialized in them. I've had Sport Coupes, Spiders, 850s, X1/9s (Ferrari Trainers), etc.

Let's not forget GM = God's Mistake.

Sometimes I give a warm welcome to new members. But that is not the best first post, and an old thread to boot. You do know which forum you're on, chief?
