Product Details

Finished in blue with a black interior. This X1/9 is equipped with a 5-speed manual transmission. Factory equipment includes pop-up headlights, a removable roof panel, power windows, and more as listed below. Modifications reported by the seller include a set of 13-inch Campagnolo Magnesium 4-spoke wheels, IAP lowering springs, a “brown wire” wiring harness upgrade, a reproduction “Lido” front lip spoiler, a custom leather-trimmed dashboard, and more as detailed below. The Fiat X1/9 was introduced in 1972, and immediately caught the attention of enthusiasts with its striking styling, fun driving character, and affordable pricing. Penned by Bertone, the X1/9 came with a removable targa top that could be stored in the frunk, and while it didn’t offer the big power its wedge shape left you to believe, it quickly gained the “baby Ferrari” nickname due to its excitement when dealing with corners. When Fiat exited the U.S. market, Malcolm Bricklin set up International Automobile Importers and agreed with Bertone to continue production and sell the mid-engined X1/9 under the latter’s badges until 1988, when production was officially stopped. Power comes from a 1.5-liter inline-4, rated at 75 horsepower and 79 lb-ft of torque. Output is sent to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission.
