84 Fiero was my first car. Not too sure i like this one. But i just saw it. Interested. Interesting though. Mine never had the overheating issue. Just a piece of carbon caught in a valve and lost compression. But it was a super fun car.

Edit: 84 was 89

Had an '85 notchback myself. Tons of fun.

Mine was a four cyl auto. But i test drove a 6 cyl manual. In a tiny little Fiero! Man that thing moved.

I made a mistake when i posted. Mine was an 84 Fiero. Ill correct the year in the post.

Cool. Even the 4 cyl "Iron duke" engine was fun enough. Went to a few Fiero car shows (yes those exist each year around IL/WI) and a few people there had V8's swapped in, one with a turbo.

Lol my God!!! V8

I miss that little car.

My fiero experiences were in Missouri. I'm back up here in Il/Wi area now.
