Fiat Ghia 1500 GT, 1965. 97,138 km, service books from new.
Fiat, the iconic Italian marque that has been around since 1899,
has always stood for accessible mobility with a touch of passion
and elegance. The name Ghia adds an extra layer of refinement to
that. Ghia was, after all, a prestigious design studio and
coachbuilder from Turin, founded in 1916 by Giacinto Ghia. During
the 1950s and 1960s, Ghia worked closely with Fiat to create
special, stylishly shaped models that rose above the ordinary.
The Fiat Ghia 1500 GT is a splendid example of this collaboration.
Designed in an era when car design flourished with elegant lines
and sporting flair, this 1500 GT combines a sporty manual gearbox,
a powerful yet manageable 1.5-litre engine and a chassis that knows
how to balance driving pleasure with comfort. The 1500 GT was often
compared to the Glas 1700 GT for its crisp lines and aerodynamic
bodywork, which explains why so many people associate the two
models with each other. The Glas was a little heavier and more
American in style, whereas the Fiat Ghia radiates Italian elegance
and refinement.
Picture this: you climb into this classic beauty, wrapped in deep
black paint and a velvety red leather interior that embraces you at
once. The wheel sits perfectly in your hands, the four-speed manual
gearbox inviting you to select just the right gear. The moment you
fire up the engine, you hear the characteristic hum of the 1500 cc
unit, restrained yet with a sporting undertone that makes your
heart beat faster.
