1986 Pontiac Fiero 2M4 review from North America
"Great Sunday driver--just does not like the snow!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Around 68000kms I had to replace the TPS sensor
The clutch was replaced at around 90000kms
the hood hinge blew through the hood at around 110000kms
it finally went to rest at approx 140000kms when there was a big bang.
General comments?
This car is still a great performer. After a total resurrection rebuild inside and out this car still turns heads! It has amazing torque for a four banger and still see the track once and a while for old times sake
oh yes this car has many race slips and still likes the red line
It has around 10000kms on the second engine and am willing to put a third in it when the time comes
Nothing lasts forever
That's why we are technicians.
