  Fiat
The Fiat spider as we know it was introduced in November of 1966 at the Turin Auto Show, and was first sold in the USA as a regular model in 1968.
The important thing to note is that both the spider and coupe were derived from the common 124 sedan, a pushrod engined four door that sold in the millions around the world, and nearly lived on in perpetuity after the tooling was sold to the former Soviet Union to prodouce the Lada.
Fiats in general, and the 124 in particular, are often misunderstood and unfairly criticised enthusiast cars.

 Fiat 124 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Fiat 124 is a large family car produced by the Italian manufacturer Fiat between 1966 and 1974.
The 124 was introduced by being dropped by parachute from a plane and instantly won critical acclaim, including that year's European Car of the Year award.
The Fiat 124 was also produced under the name Pirin-Fiat in Lovech, Bulgaria, on the basis of complete knockdown (CKD) kits between 1967 and 1971.

Fiat commonly spun a two-seater off its basic sedans, so two years later, when 124 coupe and roadsters arrived, few were surprised.
Fiat's engineers didn't stop there: The pistons were upgraded, the intake manifold was redesigned and both the oiling and cooling systems were revised.
Fiat's mid-engined, Bertone-bodied X1/9 (arguably the inspiration for Pontiac's Fiero) and the limited-production 124 Spider were given back to their respective coachbuilders to produce and market.

 1969 Fiat 124 Sport Coupe Car and Driver Review
At the high end of the scale the Fiat is right peppy and the newly available 5-speed transmission makes it easy to stay up there in the power range if you want to.
All of this tends to put the 124 Coupe in the sports sedan category, particularly since it's 3.0 inches wider than the BMW and almost 5.0 inches wider than the VW which means that there is noticeably more elbow room on the inside.
The upholstery is all vinyl, the floor is fully carpeted and wood inserts are used in the instrument panel and on the console.

 Fiat 124 - Ultimatecarpage.com forums
I was up on a ladder, over the car, moving things around on the loft in their garage.
As I was climbing down, the feet on the ladder slipped and the ladder fell with me on it, onto the hood of the Fiat and then slid sideways down the hood taking all the paint off with me. I just put the ladder away and never ever told him about it.
I think one of the versions of 124 Special still is (Lada Vaz 2106).

 1974 Fiat 124 Coupe
Though I’d "threatened" to crush the car if they’re been no interest, what I’d really hoped is what materialized; a good home for a vehicle that’s getting rarer every day with even fewer people who can appreciate it’s charms enough to actual support and own one.
However, what I've always liked about the other Fiats I've owned is that there was no modern counterpart that did quite what they did/do.
The best example I can think of is my X. In bone stock form, the closest modern car of comparable price is the MR2 and it does a lot of what the X does even better, but the things the X does best, it can't touch.
