One of the teachers at my school has a Fiat Stilo Abarth. One day, I arrive at school, and its gone! But in its place is a bright yellow Fiat Coupe! For once I thank dodgy Italian mechanics! I have this beauty parked right outside my classroom!

Wasn't the Coupe designed while Chris Bangle was head of design at Fiat?

I think so.

You cab also see his influence in the Alfa GTV from when he was working there. :)

Pininfarina designed the Fiat Coupe, all of it, as far as I know. Its definitely not a Pininfangle badge I see on the car...

no, Bangle, while working at Fiat, designed the Coupe. Sorry, but it is his nicest design, maybe it's the German influence that made him go all batty........

Pininfarina built the car, because of the low volume, but they did not design it.

My headteacher used to have a Fiat Coupe then he sold it for a Ford Puma. I dont really think much of Fiat Coupes because theyre so common around here and quite cheap. A good example could cost only £8000 in the UK. Theyre still great looking cars though.
