Barth fitted a stainless-steel dual exhaust system that delivered a deafening 107dB at 4,500rpm, making it one of the loudest Porsche 911s ever. There was no engine noise protection, no air filter, and no heater fan.

Chasing Sunny Days in a Fiat 850 Spider

Quote:
While driving there, small engine in the back is buzzing and truly adds to the experience. Compared to other versions of 850, Spider’s engine was the most eager – putting out 49 bhp in earlier versions and 52 bhp, in later models (as the one you see here).

There was a Dino like this that was used as a sort of daily driver, then it disappeared. Apparently, it was rear ended 7 years ago. Last I heard the bodywork and paint was completed a year ago. Then the mechanicals had to go back in.

Friend of mine had one of these, unfortunately his idea of maintenance was duct tape and bailing wire. He was also used to American cars so he would get in, mash the pedal to the floor and very little would happen.

When he would let me drive it he would say "Scott, how do get this car to go so fast?"
