"Gorgeous car and proud of it"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Both rear calipers replaced to fix the ebrake.

General comments?

Only cars out there I would even consider getting to replace this one are all over $60k. You know, Porsche, Ferrari, stuff like that. My car looks completely stock and is still a head turner. I love it, and I'm not giving it up until I drive it into the ground.

This car is impossible not to have fun with. You get this urge to fly around every corner you find. 3 of my friends have cars less then 2 years old and they still want to ride in my 15 year old car on a regular basis.

I paid $2400US for it, paid $300 for state inspection, and now have my dream car in the garage. I haven't put a penny into it since I bought it (minus gas and oil of course).

Anyone who dreams of getting a Porsche after they get filthy stinking rich, try this little car out first.

I've got the same car with the 4-speed stick, and I agree with you on every aspect.

Excellent! If I were you, though, I would seriously consider putting a few bucks into upgrades. The Fiero is beautiful simply stock (I am currently in love with my SE) but it is like a blank canvas that craves modification, whether it is performance or styling. It's great to see the look on any Civic-owner's face as you leave them drop-jawed in your cloud of dust.

Also, the greatest thing I think I've ever done to any car has got to be what I did about a week ago. I equipped my Fiero with the Holley universal NOS system for six-cylinder engines. I ran the lines under the hood vents and put the purge valves under the vents. Watching this NOS-purge has got to be the greatest thing I've ever seen. Good Luck with your Fiero and don't let her good looks go to waste!

I agree

I have two fieros here in Sydney Australia yes they are 20 yr old cars and require work, like any 20 yr old car.

But I will never sell them cause of the looks it gets and they are so cheap to run in fuel

My Honda HRV doesn't have better fuel cost per 100 km than the fiero.

Both fieros have 2800cc V6 mid engine.

Wonderful fun cars.
