The Fiat Chroma, Alfa 164 (and 166), Lancia Thema and Saab 9000 are based on the same (Type 4 Project) floorpan. There are very few (if any) interchangeable parts in the floorpan. I think the Lancia was the best handling of the three, although it did have quite a firm ride in Turbo 16v form... The Chroma was quite a dire car... -- James Smith
