Edited to say: I just found a spec that suggests 154bhp and 132mph. Neil Last edited by barnacle; 27/06/2006 01:58. Don't get no respect! Coupe Fiat 1994-2000 - an owner's guide <-- clicky!

Can believe that it would do just over 130mph. For a N/A it flies when it is pushed over 4k revs. I sometimes drive a Bravo HGT as well and The coupe feels quicker and handles better as it is stiffer. Not just my opinion but the HGT owners as well... We have both swapped cars before. It is on the cards to get the HGT's suspension tweeked. Whether the coupe feeling faster might be just a feeling of being low I don't know but we will shall be placing them against each other and have a few 0-60 40-100 runs.
