This car is a great mid engine, light weight, relatively well rounded package... especially when you consider the era of its development.

Strange how people fall head over heals for the MR2 yet are so quick to dismiss the Fiero.

Of course it has its flwas, and not the least was being unlucky enough to be built by Pontiac - this car should have been the baby Chevrolet Corvette - that way it would have been able to be like the "lesser" Porsches along side the 911TT and actually might have had a long term chance in the market.

The Solstice et al all suffer from 'copy cat' syndrome and don't have the benefit of 15 years R&D the way they would have had the Fiero stayed in production.

I always thought the Fiero got a bum rap.

Nice Rides

BTW, Stoopie.. what car type does tickle your fancy?
