A minor mystery has grown around the Jerry Seinfeld car accident on March 29, 2008. Reports about the accident have claimed that Seinfeld was driving a 1967 Fiat Btm. However, according to Jalopnik, "there's no such vehicle with that designation built by Fiat." Theories being offered on the true Fiat model Seinfeld was driving include:
- 1967 Fiat 1100 R

- 1967 Fiat 125 Special Berlina
- 1967 Fiat 1500 Cabriolet
- 1967 Fiat Dino Coupé 2.0
