It's funny they talk about like it was ferarri or porshe. The only reason 500 road going versions were made was so it could compete in rallying. It served no other purpose, and purportedly sat in dealer showrooms up into the early 80's

In Kansas you used to be able to get a agi drivers license at age 12. We farm kids were sliding around the gravel backroads unaware that there was this motorsport called rally. Then my dad recieved his first issue of Autoweek. There in all its black & white glory was the Lancia Stratos and the wonderfull world of rally. Instant hook. I still find my heart burn with lust when I see one.
@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X Calling me an idiot? are you shure to be German, not that common that a german admits that an italian car is one of the best? and anyway.. This IS the greatest Rally car ever! not one of the best
It Is THE BEST!! a light spaceframe with a Ferrari engine seconds comes the Lancia Delta Integrale evo3 and followed by the Ricers that came much later
The car wasn't used anymore for Rallye to put in small family cars in the place to promote sellings of small family cars.
I´m german and I know that german cars may not fall in pices, but the hearth of them is missing !!! That´s why I love italian and english cars, at the street and in racing.
It is the best rallycar btw, and one of the best streetcars ever made, too.
this is amazing...and LOL in another video i saw a comment of a retard saying that the stratos is one of the ugliest car ever made...haha that was the most retarded comment ever

@X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X well, not every italian car fell into pieces, the fiat 500 are 50 years old and still buzzin around.
I had a Ritmo and yes some parts fell into pieces like my driver seat, but the car kept on running, until the unibody rusted beyound repair at age 13,
Nowadays they are better, see the Fiat punto's MK1 of 1995 most of them don't even have rust underneath and the are 16 years old.
