Still have not seen the Hemmings article yet,,,,Regardless.
Just Imagine for a moment IF FIAT successfully returns back to the North American market and gains a serious following their cars and auto writers got a reality check that "Fix It Again Time" was nothing more than a myth and so was the mythical rust problems (kinda like the lairs admitting the truth that they fibbed).
All of a sudden there grows a group of new FIAT fans in North America based on the new cars, suddenly some member of the new group of FIAT fans go digging into FIAT cars from years gone by and they suddenly discover the X1/9 as a rather unusual and very different sports car from most anything built today and years gone by.
Like the new Mini, there are Mini fans who now own nice original Mini which now have significantly increased interest.
It is possible that a similar situation could happen to the X1/9 in the future. While there is no direct model connection between the current FIAT cars to the X1/9, there is something of a brand connection.
