you never know with folks. Sadly, it seems to me like I usually get the fueling station inquiries when I'm in a hurry. Last year i was fueling my 128 wagon & a guy walked by & said, "what year is your Fiat?" I told him & he said he had one, a convertible, but hadn't driven it in a while. I was surprised he recognized the car as a Fiat but maybe he simply saw the badge. I found out later one of the compounding reasons his car is still languishing being undriven is that he is currently doing prison time for embezzlement.
Also once, a colleague from another department noticed my 2003 Fiat Freakout panoramic photo in my office. She said, "oh, I have one of those cars." I was expecting the next thing she said to be something about a Spider, but to my surprise she went on to tell me how she had a Scorpion, it had been parked in the basement for many years now but it had been her daily driver well into the 1980s after purchasing it from a family friend/dealer in 1978. So, yeah, you never know.
