I had a 131 too; it was a great car, never gave us a lick of trouble for three 
years until it died protecting my then-18-month old son from a crazed 
17-year-old camaro driver.  FIAT was totalled, dad and son unharmed.

drove the heck out of it too; up and down california, 100mph through the 
desert, woohoo!

Not a TR6, but pretty darn nice for a 4-door sedan.
