Not a Fiat, not by Michelotti and not from 1964.
Otherwise good guess!

It screams Siata 208S, so clearly it isn't one of those.

An Italian marque pictured in the US?
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia

You're right, it's not a Siata, but it is Italian and I think it is photographed in the US, yes.

I've seen that car at Villa d'Este 2013, so it was quite easy !

Villa d'Este ? They would take one look at me, and politely ask me to go elsewhere  ;D

Well, technically it was at Villa Erba, during the public day. I'm neither a journalist nor a VIP so no Villa d'Este for me !

If you can afford to go there do it at least once, the cars are great and the Lake Como scenery is stunning !
