@wrxstiawd They built it for the same reason toyota built the MR2 when they already had the supra, because mid engine offers certain advantages over front engine, namely in handling and traction. The Fiero GT was (and still is) a brilliant little track car for an affordable price. If you build and turbo or supercharge the engine, they become little beasts. I have an 85 GT myself, it has tons of mechanical problems all the time, mostly due to age, but when it does work, its a little monster.

I dont really know anything about this car. Can somebody explain wut the point of it was when there was already the trans am which had higher preformance, (i'm assuming). was it just a cheaper alternative? why have a small "almost" sports car that wasnt even there top preformer? . . . was it just to compete w the supra & mr2?

The best GM car I have ever owned and still own is a Pontiac. I have a 1995 Firebird Formula with over 230,000 miles (I am a wrench head so I do all the work myself). Oldsmobile was a close second. No problems, just routine maintenance. GM should have scrapped Buick. My Buick Rendezvous is a POS - (wheel bearing, a/c compressor, power window, head gasket problems with less than 100,000 miles on it) don't take my word but read the blogs. Take it from a wrench head. GM you SucK!!

Pontiac messed up pretty anything. The Fiero could have been the american Ferrari....

[deepmelody1991]

It wasn't Pontiac itself, it was the bigwigs in upper management. Trust me, Pontiac wouldn't let themselves go the way it did if it had people that cared.

[manoman0]

@deepmelody1991 - you're right. the bigwigs didn't care, and I think, didn't understand Pontiac.

[GuineaJay]

@manoman0 Pontiac was the best division of GM. I already miss the new Firebird that should have been. Lingenfelter made a great one.

[manoman0]

@GuineaJay - Best division? Well, even if not, they didn't understand Pontiac. So many mistakes they made, don't know where to start to complain....just *sigh*

[mikecomputerkid]

@manoman0 i agree, oldsmobile and then pontiac were the scapegoats for chevy and gmc, lemme ask ya this, would you rather buy we build excitement or the heartbeat of america

[mikecomputerkid]

@manoman0 pontiac and the bigwigs running gm is like apple and microsoft, each is there own, thehy did so much wrong
