Overview of 1971 Fiat 850 For Sale by Owner

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.

Exterior and Interior

This 1971 Fiat 850 Sport Spider looks fresh out of the factory, with the owner reporting that the car has been repainted in the blue shade you see here. The enhancements for the model introduced in 1968 included a chrome bumper and relocated turn signals to make the design more appealing. The new interior of this 850 Sport Spider comes in gray and black, with a stunning white headliner when you put the hardtop on. You’ve got a new dash, new seats, new carpeting, and a brand-new wood steering wheel, presenting you with a pleasant experience inside the small and fun sporty cockpit.

Engine

In the rear of this 1971 Fiat 850 Sport Spider is a tiny yet potent 4-cylinder 903 cc Italian engine. Mated to a 4-speed manual transmission with rear-wheel drive, this little roadster was capable of producing 52 horses and 48 lb-ft of torque in the late ‘60s. This particular car has been kept in stellar condition and has been treated to a new alternator, a new OEM fuel pump, new speedometer cables, and a new battery. While the initial Fiat 850 Spider completed 0-60 mph in 18.2 seconds, this newer Sport model was reportedly capable of covering it in 15.6 seconds and on to a reported top speed of 91 mph.

1969 Fiat 850 Spider

SOLD

European sports cars are very different from their American counterparts, especially those from Italy. Diminutive size, dinky engines, light weight, and a simple spirit are their key attributes. Take the Fiat 850 for example, a small rear-engined convertible sports car that could be had as a saloon, coupe, minivan, roadster (Spider) or van. Can you imagine that it weighed less than 1500lbs? What’s better, we’ve got one for sale in the shape of this 1969 Fiat 850 Spider that’s undergone a full restoration on its unibody construction. It’s the perfect anti-modern car for when you want to get away from large, hulking vehicles with their gas guzzling V8 engines and plethora of tech toys. Call it a digital detox if you will.

The 2017 Fiat 124 Spider Prima Edizione Lusso represents the very beginning of the modern 124 Spider’s return to the market and was created as a limited-production launch edition for Fiat enthusiasts.

This example has traveled just 12,908 miles and showcases the defining characteristics of the launch edition, including the 124 Prima Edizione Package, Premium Collection Package, and Black convertible soft top.

Unlike the standard Spider 2000, this variant features a turbocharger system developed by Legend Industries, making it a unique and limited-production offering. Finished in Cherry Red over a tan interior, it captures the timeless elegance of Pininfarina design while offering a more spirited driving experience than its naturally aspirated counterparts.
