Rob had one like this. :thumbup:
|
Fred sent me a copy of the article. As interesting as it is, and as fun a car the X-1/9 is, after owning two I don't think I want another. Even with a Honda engine, it's still a Fiat, and by definition, it's hard to keep it together.
To quote my wife after the second one wouldn't start after a stop, "I'm never riding in this car again." That was the end of my second X-1/9. |

I would take one of these in a heartbeat...if they weren't so pricey. I owned 4 X1/9s over the years and loved them. Drove my buddy's E-Mod SCCA monster...an X1/9 stripped down to ~1700lbs, powered by a turbo 13B rotary (300+ H.P.).
