Thanks I’ll delete 6hours off the dvr.They did not.
Guess that tells me all I need to know about the exxe’s ‘classic’ value.They did not.
Not necessarily. Mecum isn't the best indictor. They skip a ton of cars on TV.Guess that tells me all I need to know about the exxe’s ‘classic’ value.

Yeah, gotta agree that the U.S. tv auctions mainly focus on cars I wouldn’t buy. Very few funky, euro or japanese oddities. Anyone know what the X1/9 went for?and Mecum has more of a muscle car guy attendance vs Bonhams or Barrett-Jackson. If you're there because a 67 Chevelle SS or a 32 Ford hot rod suits your fancy, you ain't biddin' on no orange Fiat.

Thanks for the video link. I passed it on to my buddy so he can see what the car sold for and how the bidding went.From the video Mecum posted of Day 1 at the Houston auction. The X is 2:28:36 in. The announcer called it an Fiat X, Nineteen, Bertone. What a shock!
A perfect example of why Mecum is not the ideal place for these cars... listen to the where they start the bidding - how the ask continues to go down - and the subsequent comments from the announcer.
About a month ago, a guy in Nevada was selling what appeared to be an immaculate X1/9, blue, with a 1500 engine and five speed, and $2k of interior upgrades, which looked pretty good. He also had the original, 1300 engine which was included. Couldn't get the $6800 he was asking.Couldn't help but chuckle at the "6000?? Are you kidding me? Holy Moley, that's for nothing."
