1996 Fiat Cinquecento Sporting

This is my 1996 Fiat Cinquecento Sporting “Luigi”. Although it doesn’t seem like much of a car, it sure gives you more than you’d think. This particular example is not really stock. The bodywork has been fully restored and repainted. Original 1.1 54hp engine has been replaced with 1.2 75hp one from a Punto. It has NGK spark plugs, Cusco oil catch can, Cusco battery holder, Dexcraft racing intake, BMC air filter, new clutch kit and racing gearbox oil. Strongflex polyurethane racing engine mounts and all racing polyurethane bushes on the car, Powerflex camber bolts(-1.75 degrees on the front wheels). 25mm spacers on the front, 21mm on the back with longer bolts, All 4 big brake discs and callipers from a Fiat Uno Turbo. Bilstein suspension with Apex -30mm springs front and back. Lastovcic back box and new center box and cat. Toora Grid racing steering wheel, OMP racing brake pedals, Skunk2 gear knob, fire extinguisher. Sparco front upper strut bar and custom rear upper strut bar. Magnetti Marelli 3.0bar fuel pump, new Nankang tires, OMP tow strap and many more… So much work has gone into this little pocket rocket. I could never give it away for anything. 75hp is not much(it will have more in the future ofc), but considering this car doesn’t weight much more than a 700kgs, with its stiff suspension and revvy engine it is really a blast to drive and it can outcorner pretty much anything out there. And it’s yellow.. nothing beats a yellow car lol
