You sir are correct...my first glance at it I thought "Triumph TR7", well right up until I seen the side....the rear of each looks so alike.

and that's basically what they looked like after 6-months of ownership.

if i ever saw one for sale near me in good condition i'd probably buy it. this one has been sitting for at least a year without moving i think, i drive by it occasionally and it's always in the same spot at any given hour, so i think its a little unfair to say that this is the standard for all of them

I've never seen a nice one, and I remember when the were sold as new cars in a showroom. They came with a vanity plate from the dealer...

POS

maybe your right, it makes no sense for me to have one, better of just saving the money instead of wasting it one a car...im only going to do a little bit of that with my beamer

FIAT = Fix It Again Tony. Even my italian colleagues in Italy recommend buying something other than FIAT cars if you can.

at first glance i thought it was a Porsche 914, but it's definitively a x1/9 survivor.

idk if you can really say survivor, probably should be "survivor"

very cool car. I road in one of those before. Way back in the day. lol

ptack · 04-15-2012, 05:28 PM

I wanted one of those when I was a kid, but I literally could not fit the driver's seat with the top down.
There was a similar Ferrari concept car also by Bertone.
