Note From FIAT on the Prima Edizione 500s

[sptcoupe]

Got this note from FIAT today, and the pic of the seats going in the Prima Edizione cars.

Thank you again for your continued support, enthusiasm and passion for the FIAT Brand."

"Hello,

I just wanted to take a quick moment to say hello and share some exciting news with you from our FIAT production facility.

As you know, your car just recently went into production. I totally understand your excitement and appreciate your patience as the days go by.
Trust me, there is no one more excited than me to see you take delivery of your vehicle!

I thought now would be a good time to add to your anticipation. Here is a quick sneak peek at your seats that are ready to be installed. I thought you would love to see them.

Stay tuned – we will be sharing more information and photos over the coming weeks

the badge at the top of the page will be embroidered into the seat. Also, the seats were supposed to be cloth, but the seat in the pic is leather or vinyl

Kinda sad I'll be driving the wheels off a special edition, isn't it? I wonder if the PE number will be in the VIN.

I also fully intend to make the PE car my daily driver and hope like hell I can drive the wheels off it! As the old saying goes - "cars are meant to be used, just not abused". For the first 17 years we owned the coupe, it was the only car I drove, to the tune of about 15K miles per year, and it had 88K on it when I bought it in 1987. But I'm glad I put all those miles on it now, as I hardly have time to drive any of the FIATS nowadays. Just enjoy it for what it is, and put Amber in the car and come visit us in Texas.

You do work way too much. You and Carol ought to jump in your little Fiat and come visit us! Amber would love to take a road trip but it's hard to leave home with everything going on.
