Title: Bravaheart !
Post by: kev131 on February 03, 2007, 08:25:56 PM
The US version of the 131 (called Brava for the series 2 incarnation - not sure if the series 3 sold there - I seem to remember that Fiat pulled out of the US market before the final version was introduced) was never the prettiest version with it's oversize bumpers.

I do like this version though which has been softened somewhat with the addition of some Sport/Racing bits. It has a nice sporty profile, a pleasing ride height and good sized wheels - Looks like it is a rewarding and fun track car as well. (Pictures courtesy of mirafiori.com)

Yup!  ;) Biturbo (Series II). The style on the Fiat with the grey outer edge and silver centre are from the Spider. The Coupe and 4-door Series II Biturbos have all silver wheels...
