Great thread! Our son drove our Coupe on on his prom night. Great memories of tha day, which Scott says was made even more special by being able to use the coupe.
In retropsect, I was probably lucky that night. He and his date were with another couple in the coupe, which was appaently a big hit at the dance, and he eneded up taking all kinds of people out in it for a test ride. I was like a nervous dad worrying about his daughter's first date! But, no damage, nothing broken, and a new FIAT fanatic was created! In fact, when he saved his dollars to get his first car, he bought a yellow 1979 Brava 2-dr that he drove for 2 years!
Denise knows me too well I allowed them to pose next to the Fiat.Drive it?.... I dont think so!!! Yes,Denise,he is a real boy and a very nice one at that.And well behaved! Although,it could be threat of me cutting off any appendages that get near Heather!

I think the $100 dollar deposit to date my daughter kept most of the boy's away. I guess the thought of losing it if they brought her home late was to much to risk.
