Somehow it just isnt the same

My kids just dont understand the fascination I have with an old Fiat Spider... they all tell me I should sell it and get a new Miata or something that is newer and has a/c and is more confortable and and the list goes on... how do you explain this to those young uns? Oh well, and somehow this car even though it is a Fiat just doesnt have the same feeling to it as the good ol Spider ( sorry Spidey, not slamming you or anything with the good ol phrase!) ( I have to talk to my Spider you know? ) (maybe it is the altitude here in Salt Lake, <talking to myself again> )

I'm not a front wheel drive kind of guy. But I have to admit, it would be one unique car on our shores.

thers already at least one here. i saw one for sale a couple years ago. persally, i dont like the styling of the car, fiat or not.the honda, slostice and mrs are much better looking, and probably better cars.

If you want one of these , there on sale in Europe , you can buy them cheaper as a 124 spider @the moment

I don't know about the guy up there in Utah talking to his Spider Must be those long cold winters ...J.D.

I dont see anything wrong with talking to Spidey, I asked her just last night if she thought I was crazy and Spidey just smiled at me with that knowing look.

As my late father used to say " It's OK to talk to yourself, as long as you don't start answering yourself". When "Spidey" starts talking back to you, I would start worrying [I'm OK--No your not--sure we are--just look at us !]... ...J.D.
