This 1979 Fiat Spider 2000 convertible is a sunny day companion with a vintage European flair. The vibrant burgundy body and black convertible top create a classic color combination that will turn heads. Though it may not be a show car, this Fiat still looks sharp rolling down the road, especially with those sporty 14-inch wheels wrapped in BF Goodrich Radial T/A's. This little roadster is a spirited driver with a unique personality.
Slide into the cockpit, and you'll find nicely patterned burgundy and black vinyl bucket seats that offer good support on those twisty backroads. The interior retains a sense of old-school class with features like the woodgrain center console and a floor shifter. Wait until you hit that AM/FM cassette deck blasting a vintage rock tape. It's pure nostalgia on wheels! Documentation of motor work and repairs offers the mechanically inclined buyer peace of mind.
Under the hood, the 121 cubic-inch inline-four might be small, but it's mighty, especially since it's a 1980 model offering a boost in horsepower compared to the original '79 engine. A fresh Weber carburetor feeds and breathes it through a slightly leaky but healthy single exhaust system. A slick-shifting five-speed manual gearbox puts the power into your hands for full engagement with this fun Italian. The suspension features front control arms with coil springs and a single shock, a rear coil spring with shocks, and power disc brakes up front, delivering classic roadster handling.
