In-game description[]
In 1993, Fiat introduced a car that took the world by surprise: It was the Fiat Coupé. The styling was truly wild, highlighted by headlights that looked like the eyes of a living creature and radical looking fenders that gave it an aggressive stance. The man behind the car's styling was Chris Bangle, then-member of the Fiat Design Center, who would later gain notoriety as the chief designer for BMW.
The styling was not the only extreme thing about the Coupé. It also offered a thrilling on-road experience, especially considering that it was a front-wheel drive car. The original engine was the same DOHC inline-4 from the Lancia Delta. Naturally aspirated and turbo versions were available, with only the turbo version sold in Japan. It boasted 192 HP and 218.4 lb-ft of torque. In 1997, after some minor changes, the engine was replaced by a DOHC inline-5. The new engine also had naturally-aspirated and turbo variants, with the turbo version putting out 222 HP and 228.5 lb-ft of torque. A 6-speed manual was available, only coming in the sport-oriented Turbo Plus. The performance of the Turbo Plus was impressive. It boasted a top speed of 155 mph (249 km/h), and was one of the most potent FF (Front-engine, Front-drive) cars in Europe. Production of the Coupé has ended, but it remains to this day as one of the most distinctive cars to ever come from the Italian company.
