Fiat 850 Coupé Vignale

Vehicle Overview

The Fiat 850 Coupé Vignale, a distinguished member of the esteemed Vignalina series, stands as a testament to the collaboration between Fiat and Vignale, marked by exquisite design and meticulous craftsmanship. Designed by Virginio Vario, who succeeded Giovanni Michelotti as the chief designer at Vignale, this coupe embodies a seamless fusion of style and performance. Rooted in the robust mechanics of the Fiat 600 D, the Fiat 850 took center stage, showcasing a versatile platform that became the canvas for Vignale’s creative innovations. Within the Vignalina series, apart from the coupé, Vignale offered a two door Berlina (for sale here) and also a Spider, all sharing the 850’s resilient wheelbase and mechanical foundation. The Fiat 850 Coupé Vignale epitomizes elegance and sophistication, boasting a sleek 2+2 configuration that marries practicality with luxury. Adorned with a sumptuous fake leather interior, every detail exudes refinement, from the ‘door-open’ lights delicately mounted on the doors to the central tunnel’s thoughtful inclusion of a ‘loose-object’ tray and a cigarette holder. For enthusiasts seeking an elevated driving experience, the ‘Lusso Export’ specification presents a tantalizing array of upgrades. From the convenience of electric windows to the opulence of metallic paint, each enhancement contributes to an unparalleled sense of prestige. A wooden steering wheel, chromed gearchange and handbrake levers, and an electronic rev counter further elevate the cabin’s ambiance, ensuring every journey is marked by sophistication and comfort. Limited to a production run of just 5000 specimens, the Fiat 850 Coupé Vignale stands as a rare gem, coveted by collectors and admired by enthusiasts worldwide. With its timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship, this coupe continues to captivate automotive aficionados, transcending generations with its enduring allure.
