If you were to define a cute car, the Fiat 500 would be one extremely strong candidate. This diminutive car was produced by Fiat of Italy between 1957 and 1975, and went on to sell nearly 3.9 million units. It was the perfect antidote to large cars, and offered no-frills motoring at a wallet-friendly price, being cheap to buy and run too. In fact, Fiat commissioned a new 500 in 2007 which is still in production. Some Fiat 500s did make it to the USA, such as this 1969 Fiat 500 Resto Cabriolet from Virginia. It’s got just 55,000 miles under its little wheels and underwent a comprehensive restoration in 2020 to bring it to the stunning condition that you see in these pictures.
Doesn’t this look like a car you could pick up and put in your backpack. Italian designer Dante Giacosa was the man responsible for this tiny thing, which is just 117 inches long and 52 inches wide. This 1969 Fiat 500 Resto Cabriolet sports a timeless Pearl White paintjob that was done in 2020 as part of the restoration. All lights, badges and chrome work are in place, as are a set of period-correct 12-inch wheels although the seller is unsure if they are the original units. They are wrapped in Safeway tires measuring in at a dinky 145x70. This 500 wears the Abarth badge on its nose as well. You can roll back the black top and enjoy an almost totally open-air experience. Venture aboard the red interior and it too looks amazing, as it was reupholstered as part of the 2020 restoration. It’s amazing how spacious this car is on the inside, as four occupants can be accommodated. Being basic transportation for the masses, you won’t find an AC or radio inside, but that’s alright because you will be reveling in the character of the car as you drive it flat-out.
As the name suggests, this 1969 Fiat 500 Resto Cabriolet is powered by a 500cc (499.5cc to be exact) two-cylinder engine. This little engine is mounted in the rear of the car, is thought to put out less than 20hp to the rear wheels, and sends it there through a four-speed manual gearbox. The seller is unsure if the engine in this car is the original unit.

Classic cars are true masters in the art of charm. A mere drive in one can bring smiles and spark conversations, often driven by curiosity. When in search of a vehicle that exudes charm and allure, it's impossible to overlook Italian automobiles. Bursting with character, iconic design, and captivating features, piloting an Italian car offers an unparalleled experience that cannot be replicated. In the spotlight today is a prime example of Italian automotive history, the 1938 Fiat Topolino Type A. This iconic piece of Italian motoring heritage transports you back to the golden age of automobiles and is complemented by a collection of historical documents and artifacts that enhance its provenance. Even more enticing, the car holds an A-/B+ rating from a certified appraiser, attesting to its quality and value.
The original Fiat 500, a true mobility revolution, captured the hearts of the Italian public when it made its debut in 1957. Measuring under ten feet in length and featuring an economical 500cc twin-cylinder engine tucked away in the tail, this charming city car left an indelible mark not only in Italy but across the globe. In the 2000s, Fiat embraced nostalgia by introducing the retro-modern version in 2007. Now, we present the latest iteration of the Fiat 500, having undergone a facelift in 2016 and continuing to roll off the production line. If you've ever yearned for a modern city car that stands out from its segment peers, cast your gaze upon this 2012 Fiat 500C Pop currently available for sale. With 58,800 miles recorded on the odometer, it offers the coveted convertible roof option for an extra dose of driving enjoyment.
The original Fiat 500 was the Topolino or ‘Little Mouse’ from way back in 1936, a dinky two-door car for the Italian masses. The second generation, also known as the Nuova 500 took over in 1957 and ran until 1975; a much-loved car to this date. Having a hit on their hands, Fiat decided to capitalize on that, and exactly fifty years later in 2007, debuted the Fiat 500 as a city car for the modern world. Amazingly, it’s still in production, fifteen years later. Of course, when you talk Fiat parlance, it’s hard to not remember the famous Abarth variants that were the performance models. The Abarth tag continues as well on select models, such as this 2019 Fiat 500 Abarth with 35,000 miles that we’ve got for sale. Would you like a zesty and zingy Italian car to zip around town with, as well as enjoy spirited country drives in? Here’s your ticket!
Italian drop-top sports cars are one of the purest ways to experience the thrills of driving in a raw, unfiltered manner. These cars are meant to dart about narrow streets and windy roads, using their light weight and small but eager engines to provide endless excitement. They are the antithesis of the large, hulking American automobile with its large V8 but lumbering progress. This is particularly so in the ’70s, when the Malaise Era meant that many of those V8s were strangled to under 200 horsepower but still tasked with moving 4,000-plus pound beasts. So, why not go for something that tips the scales at a little over 2,000 pounds (without driver)? Check out this reported 77,581-mile 1978 Fiat 124 Sport Spider that’s up for sale in Washington with a zesty four-cylinder engine and a manual gearbox. It’s your ideal weekend toy.
The 1971 Fiat 850 Sport Spider was renowned for being cheap and fun to drive. Affordable and good-looking, this Fiat coupe with a rear engine and rear wheel drive system paved its way as the Porsche for much less. The initial iteration is reported to have not met great success when it was first introduced in 1965, but Fiat saw potential. In 1968, their engineers turned things around. The initial 843 cc 4-cylinder engine was enlarged to 903 cc, producing 52 horsepower. While the 850 Sport Spider may not be the fastest sports car, it's known for its excellent handling. Its RR layout enables light and responsive steering, with the independent suspension benefitted road-holding thanks to its modest power. This particular model we have today shares the same story; having clocked a mere 8,055 miles, the current owner has taken good care of this tiny roadster with new parts and upholstery. It is up to date on servicing and is included with the original manual.
Here's a curio and something that's totally un-American! Check out this 1959 Autobianchi Bianchina, also known as the Fiat Bianchina, here. That's because this eye-catching, pint-sized automobile is based on the Fiat 500 of the time. The Fiat 500 was a tiny city car that redefined motoring in the crowded cities of Italy post-World War 2. These little cars, with their plucky air-cooled engines, helped the Italian public move with ease and quickly became cutesy curios across the world. This particular car bears just 20,000 original miles and comes to you with quite a few refurbishments and new parts. Why not buy it and make it your weekend de-stress tool? It's also a proper classic and will only appreciate in value over time. Finally, its simplicity means that keeping it in great nick won't cost you an arm and a leg. Let's learn more about this Kentucky-registered car.
