    I bought a 2003 Barchetta in yellow about six months ago. I paid 6800 Euro for a car with 42,000 miles on the odometer.
    I could have afforded a different sports car if I wished to do so but what really sold me on the Barchetta is the styling. I desired a car that would be good for top down Sunday drives in Spain's La Safor mountains where I live. My Barchetta has proven a good choice for this purpose. It's has a reputation for being inexpensive to own and operate, is an eye catcher with nimble handling and it does what I ask it to do. I'm satisfied with my purchase. The fact that they are somewhat rare and hold their value well is just an additional bonus.

      Yes, as you have stated, while the Barchetta might not be the obvious choice because of its front wheel drive, there is something very special about the way it handles. It is very nimble and communicative. As for a car that you can drive around long distances, enjoy some alfresco motoring, all while getting around 30 miles per gallon; and certainly in America, never seeing another one, It just might be the perfect classic Italian car to own either in Europe, or an America.

    Nice video, thanks. I fully understand your enthusiasm. I bought a red 1997 barchetta 5 years ago and enjoy it very much. Fun to drive, quite rare here in Denmark and very reliable. I had a new variable valve timing device installed shortly after I got it and that totally changed the engine performance. I also installed seat heating. Difficult to do but worthwhile. Took it to Northern Italy and drove around with my wife for 2 weeks with the top down. It attached quite a lot of attention by the lokal Italians. There is a barchetta at the design department of the Turin Car Museum.
