According to AutoIia magazine (1990's Coupes), the Coupe Fiat is 'the easiest to live with'

I agree the GT seems like a slightly larger and more modern Fiat Coupe. Shame you've had issues with yours Dan, which model do you have? 3.2 V6. I don't have it any more. It needed a rebuild at 29k miles less than a year after I bought it, probably due to a poor repair by the previous owner (the bearings weren't oem). It was fairly reliable for about 5 years bar a few water leaks that left me stranded but I couldn't get to the bottom of a braking issue that spoilt my enjoyment of the car.

Having both a coupe and a GT until a few months ago, the GT is by far the easiest to live with. More comfortable seats, far more refined plus the benefits of having a hatchback. In my case the Fiat coupe is more reliable though. I also have a GT in addition to the Coupe. I agree with Dan's comment above, but in my case, the GT has been spectacularly reliable - it turned 240,000 miles last week and hasn't needed anything that a car of that mileage wouldn't have had (I've replaced the turbo, clutch, suspension and brakes, so nothing out of the ordinary). Mines the rattly old 1.9 diesel though, not the glorious Busso
