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.

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.
