WELCOME TO A FANTASTIC OPPORTUNITY TO PURCHASE THIS COSMETICALLY RESTORED 1981 FIAT 2000 TURBO SPIDER. OVER RECENT YEARS THE TURBO MODEL HAS BECOME QUITE RARE SINCE ONLY 700 FIAT SPIDERS WERE SENT TO LEGEND INDUSTRIES FOR THE TURBO INSTALLATION WHEN NEW. THIS CAR RETAINS ALL OF ITS ORIGINAL TURBO EQUIPMENT. THE TURBO EQUIPMENT INCREASED HORSEPOWER RATINGS OVER THE NORMAL 1995 CC ENGINE. THIS IS ALSO THE FUEL INJECTED MODEL COUPLED TO A 5 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION . THIS WAS A DRY SOUTHWEST CAR THAT HAD NO RUST EVER. THIS CAR ALSO WAS ACCIDENT FREE SO NO BODY FILLER NEEDED BEFORE PAINT. THE CAR HAD THE ORIGINAL PAINT WHEN I GOT IT AND THE CLEAR COAT WAS JUST TERRIBLE FROM THE NEW MEXICO SUN RAYS . THE CAR HAS BEEN REPAINTED IN THE FACTORY SILVER AND BY VIEWING THE PHOTOS AND THE VIDEO YOU CAN DEFINITELY SEE THE BEAUTIFUL SHINE IT NOW HAS. THE INTERIOR HAD SOME SUN DAMAGE AS WELL TO THE TOPS OF THE SEATS FROM TOP DOWN DRIVING. I ELECTED TO REPLACE THE INTERIOR SEAT COVERINGS WITH FACTORY STYLE REPLACEMENTS . THEY ARE JUST GORGEOUS . IT IS A WONDERFUL RICH COLOR COMBINATION WITH THE SILVER EXTERIOR AND BLACK INTERIOR. THE ONLY REAL INTERIOR FLAW IS THE PADDED DASH HAS THREE CRACKS BUT IT HAS A CARPET DASH COVER OVER THEM . THE TRUNK HAS ITS FACTORY SPARE AND CARPET FOR TRUNK AREA WHICH IS VERY NICE. THE CONVERTIBLE TOP IS ABOUT TWO YEARS OLD WITH NO FLAWS. ALL CHROME IS ORIGINAL TO THE CAR WHICH I WOULD RATE AS A #8 ON A SCALE OF 1-10. THE TIRES ARE EXCELLENT WITH ONLY ABOUT 5000 MILES OF USE ON THEM. ALL THE UNDERCARRIAGE IS TOTALLY RUST FREE AND VERY NICE WITH FACTORY UNDERCOATING STILL IN PLACE. THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS EXCELLENT AS WELL. ALL SUSPENSION IS IN SUPER CONDITION . THE CAR RIDES AND DRIVES LIKE A 50,000 MILE CAR . THE CAR IS A BLAST TO DRIVE WITH PLENTY OF POWER. THIS CAR IS READY FOR YOU TO DRIVE OR SHOW AND ENJOY.

On Aug-06-10 at 06:19:35 PDT, seller added the following information: I HAVE HAD A FEW QUESTIONS ON THE AUTOCHECK STATING THE CAR MILEAGE AS BEING IN THE 113,000 RANGE. I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH ROUGHLY THE MILEAGE IT IS SHOWING NOW. AUTOCHECK IS SHOWING THE CAR TO BE A 1 OWNER. I AM NOT FINDING AUTOCHECK TO BE CORRECT ON ANYTHING. ACTUALLY THE CAR HAS HAD AT LEAST THREE OWNERS AND THE MILEAGE ON THE TITLE IS STATED AS ACTUAL MILEAGE. ACCORDING TO THE CONDITION OF THE CAR WHEN I BOUGHT IT I BELIEVE THE MILES TO BE CORRECT. I HAVE SEEN MANY FIAT SPIDERS IN THE 100,000 MILE RANGE AND MOST OF THOSE ARE JUST VERY WORN . THIS CAR DRIVES LIKE A 50,000 MILE CAR. OTHER THAN THAT I HAVE NO OTHER EXPLANATION FOR AUTOCHECK WRONG READINGS. THANK YOU AND AGAIN SORRY FOR ANY MISINFORMATION .
