@ingo: was there any way to differentiate V8-powered Admiral from base model?

From outside the vinyl roof and 15"-wheels plus several features inside ( http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opel_Diplomat_A )

If the Fiat is rare enough, it should be listed, too.

the badge on the FIAT surely seems to be that of NSU/FIAT model 500 Weinsberg
http://www.zwischengas.com/de/TD/catalog/1962/NSU-Fiat-Weinsberg-500.html
but as far as i know of all the FIAT this model they just delivered and don´t assembled in Germany
here a list of FIAT "made in Germany":

quite familiar with those vehicles in daily use in the 70ies cause it´s about my home area

@Nightrider nevertheless you could have ordered Admiral 6 cyl with vinyl roof as an extra otherwise standart on V8

as Ingo says there has to be some other features inside and wasn´t there a label on trunklid?!

So we have two members here, who are originally from NSU-country.

The Diplomat also had a brushed aluminum/stainless steel trim panel insert between the tail lamps. This vehicle has that, too, but the wheels look like the 14-inchers and the roof is painted, not trimmed in vinyl. The badge on the right side of the deck lid looks like the Admiral script with the 2800 emblem, fitted to cars after the late 1965 engine changes. Probably an Admiral with the Diplomat rear end trim added.
