Re: Favorite Car

I still miss my first car n' so far my overall most drivable car. As soon I got behind the steerin' wheel on it a big grin from ear to ear erupted n' the horns grew in my forehead.

I present you all the Fiat 132-2000 '79, twincam, aluminium cylindertops, weber 38, rear wheel drive with great roadholdin' charachters (for a driver who was familiar with her, 'cos she was hard to drive when you're not used to drive her). She rev'ed n' rev'ed, the red marking started at 6200 rpm n' you could just go on n' rev 'til 7500-8000. Inside there was comfort that mattered with electrical sidewindow elevators n' sunshields that disapered in the roof when not in use n' that you just pulled down plus the fact that you also had such pulldown sunscreens at the doors. When you looked at the instrumentaion there was just one thing that really mattered n' that was the Revmeter that was big n' perfectly visible in the middle of it all. She was fast for her day. I once drove her at 180km/h n' 0-100 km/h just took a mere 9.3 seconds. I miss her a lot.

Mine did look like this ones but her colour was winered.
