Do you mean the Lancia Kappa Coupe (known also as kC)

no, were are all referring to the flying-saucer Fiat Coupe that, in the fast-version, had the same 5cyl motor as was in the Kappa 2.0. This motor was also available in a 4 door Fiat (Lybra semi-look-alike); which was also available as a SW, the name of which I can't remember. Sort of a Lancia at a Fiat price !

I had a Kappa SW with the 2-0 motor (155HP). It was very nice to drive...semi sporty I'd say....reasonably fast in such a heavy car. In either "lighter-weight" Fiat it must have resulted in a lot better performance than in the Kappa.

how can you mention the Fiat Brava SW in the same breath as the Lancia Lybra...apart from some engines they had hardly anything in common...the Lybra has a far more sophisticated rear self levelling suspension for instance and the build quality and materials are worlds apart.

The Fiat in question would be the Marea.
The engine (2,0 20v 155 hp) was great, the rest was just a Fiat.
By the way, the coupe is an excellent car, and a great Fiat.
A modern Dino, without the engine trouble.
