I was told that one time someone used the platform of a Fireo and put a hand made F40 shell over it.

Cool huh.

Fiero's can be made to look nice, and u can do some crazy motor swaps with them. They were built like garbage from factory is what I've heard, but the really done ones look good. The GT model like the one in the pic, is the only shape I like though.

but yeah the Fiero is mid engine rear wheel drive.. and came with either a 4 banger or a v6 from the factory .. I have personally witness one with a v8 under the hood do a wheelie stand ... the guy that shoehorned it in works in the department next to mine at bell mobility...

Weren't they called Fiero cause they used to catch fire?

They're decent I guess, the base for a lot of kit cars, theres a kit Ive seen that makes a miata look like a z3 lol.
