1981 FIAT Spider 2000 Turbo

One of only 700 Fiat Spider Turbos made. With a 2-litre fuel-injected 4-cylinder, the Spider was quick and fun to drive. For the 1981-1982 model years, some US models were fitted with a turbo by Legend industries before going to the dealership. This made a great little car even better. Low curb weight, independent suspension, and 4-wheel disc breaks, made the Spider handle as well as any Italian sports car. The turbo-charged engine made the car truly quick.

I have owned this car for 9 years and done a great deal of work on it. This is one of the best Spiders you will find. It is in excellent but not perfect condition. I have replaced the turbo, reconditioned the heads, restored and repainted the body and replaced the top among other things. I have only used synthetic oil to preserve the turbo. See the complete list below. The car comes with some extra parts, repair manual, repair receipts, and a custom-fit car canvas cover.
