Vehicle Description
There's something exceptionally cool about an Italian mini car.
When it's done right, like this 1975 Fiat 500, you just want to put
on your Gucci loafers and go for a drive.
This little car has a beautiful shade of dark blue that makes it
look like a true sophisticate. The shine shows off the kind of
lines that would earn this little 500 some major style award for
many decades after it left production. And the desire is in the
details. There's the right amount of flair with chrome bumpers and
headlight bezels. And we especially like how the whitewall tires
have an extra red line to go with the new red folding top. As good
as this one looks, it's also a car you won't hesitate to drive.
After all, that rear rack is the perfect palace to mount your
wicker picnic basket. Fans of the 500 will recognize this final run
of the model. This "R" model benefits from two decades of evolution
while still keeping the iconic silhouette. And since its
replacement was already on the road, a 1975 model is quite a bit
rarer than previous years. So this one really represents a grand
finale for a little car.
The restored red interior is a reminder that small can still be
stylish. This has the clean look of a well-kept classic and an
overall feeling of a hardy driver. It's surprisingly accommodating
for its size, and the big open roof was part of the key to even
making this feel overcrowded. The thin/grippy steering wheel and
Veglia speedometer with shift markings are pure, simple, and cool -
exactly what makes for the best in Italian style.
The engine is part of the Fiat 500 charm. It's a twin-cylinder
479cc motor that has built such a hardy reputation that it was even
used for the car's successor. It's placed over the back wheels for
maximum traction and minimum power loss. It still won't set speed
records, but you already knew that. Instead, it runs like a sewing
machine and loves to rev. So it's quite a bit of fun with the
control of the four-speed manual transmission and light/nibble
steering.
This is the kind of little style icon that can draw big crowds at
car shows. And don't be surprised if you're asked to rent it out
for promotions or commercials. Because after all, something this
cool, complete, and stylish is an irresistible classic. Call
