  • Introduced to market in 1972, the X1/9 was Fiat’s first mid-engine production car. Originally based on the Autobianchi 112 Runabout concept that was well received at the 1969 Turin Motor Show, the X1/9 was designed by the legendary firm of Bertone. The X1/9 was instantly viewed as a marvel upon its debut for its sporty styling, compact design, ample luggage space and excellent handling, courtesy of its 41/59 weight distribution. Fiat and Bertone’s accomplishment captured the joy of Italian motoring while still meeting strict U.S. safety requirements. The model would undergo a moderate redesign for the 1979 model year, and Fiat marked the transition by producing a limited edition of late 1978 models for the North American market – each one of them uniquely numbered and adorned by the signature of Nuccio Bertone. The X1/9 would continue with the Fiat name until 1982 when production was switched to Bertone. A well-respected Italian model that offered a sporty driving experience, the X1/9 remains a desired model to this day, with well-kept examples becoming increasingly difficult to procure.

    The 1978 Fiat X1/9 featured here is finished in stunning Gold Metallic with an impeccably-kept original white and Sable Brown interior. This magnificent motorcar was just acquired in Palm Springs, California, and has been beautifully preserved and maintained. Having been driven just 25,384 miles from new, this is without question, one of the most well preserved X1/9 examples that can be found anywhere in the world today! I personally believe the investment potential of this great Italian sports car will grow beyond your imagination. We are proud to offer this 1978 Fiat X1/9 to the most discerning collector, investor or enthusiast who desires the best. Classic cars have proven to be among the most resilient and rewarding investments in recent years with the Historic Automobile Group Index (HAGI) jumping 39% in 2013, 16% in 2014 and 17% in 2015 while posting gains of 467% over the last 10 years.

    Financing

    Finance rates as low as 8.9%.


    We know that classic car financing can pose a unique challenge. Although a vintage or exotic car can be an excellent investment, some financial institutions attempt to apply standard “used car” rules for financing a classic car, which in many cases can make loan approval difficult.


    We work closely with many banking institutions that understand and recognize the collector value of classic cars and view them as an investment, which allows us to help you get the financing you need so that you can have the car you have dreamed of.


    Terms available up to 144 Months


    If you have any questions, feel free to contact us, (314)291-7000 or credit@schmitt.com
