Good-looking and stylish, the Fiat 124 Spider debuted in 2016 and was an instant hit. While it is no longer in production, older models are sought after by auto enthusiasts in the used car market.
If you think the Fiat 124 Spider looks familiar, you’re right, and that’s because this model was built alongside the MX-5 Miata at one of Mazda’s Japanese plants. The 124 Spider and the MX-5 share a platform, which means Fiat’s roadster benefits from the same superior handling and balanced driving dynamics that made the MX-5 a favorite.
That said, although this model is jokingly referred to as the “Fiata,” it isn’t just a rebranded MX-5. The 2020 model came in three trim levels: the base-spec Classica, a better-equipped Lusso, and the Abarth performance version. All three trims were fitted with a turbocharged 1.4-liter four-cylinder engine: the Classica and Lusso trims made 160 horsepower, while the Abarth made 164 horsepower.
If you’re looking to purchase the 2020 Fiat 124 Spider, expect to pay at least $25,000 and potentially more if you’d like to opt for the Abarth trim.
