gm should bring back the fiero. chevy is going to replace the cavalier with the cobalt in 2005 (the pontiac sunfire has the same chassis as the cavalier, so a new fiero could replace the sunfire). it could use the ecotec engine from the sunfire (midmounted, of course). the only bad thing is that pontiac would probably make a new fiero look just like a grand am, and not have the awesome looks of the original (just like what they did with the new gto). a new fiero could also compete with those fast-and-the-furious style japanese sport compact cars. what do u guys think?
p.s. everybody please write letters to pontiac, and tell them to bring back the fiero!

THat would be a great idea, BUT reality saiys that the Fiero is Dead for ever.
But a Fiero with a 3.6L DOHC producing 240HP and 270lbs of tq would be downright a SuperFine Car. Keeping the Poly Body and an all Aluminum Super Space Frame. Hummpph Just think about the possiblity of such a car.

Yeah hate to say it, but the fiero doesn't look like it will make a come back, untill GM actually starts making fun cars again, not saying the CTS or the vette aren't but a rear mid mount car like the fiero with all the new off the shelf stuff that GM could slap on it would make it sell as fast as free beer.

I wouldn't want them to bring it back.. it was so damn close to vette performance when they were making it. They had the turbo idea dropped it and last I heard they actually talked of a V8, but the vette guys bitched.
Worse comes to worst just buy a fiero and mod the crap out of it :wink: I'm sitting roughly 280-300 at the wheels and the joy of shocking people is just too funny. Got the notchback and everyone thinks I have a 4 cylinder and stuck formula stickers on the side, granted with the 3800sc it is quieter then the 2.8.
STEALTH POWER! :grinno:
