There was a red one in there too. I think there are actualy 2 shots of each, I dont remember for sure, every one always says 3, but I saw another in the far background of a shot, something about a bus.... thats all I remember, it was 4AM. I did however sit stright up in bed and yell FIERO when I saw it, lol I need help.

BTW, talking about Star Trek 3 (its 4AM again.....)

Actually, it was Star Trek IV, when they went back to 1980's San Francisco. I remember seeing at least 2 Fieros in that one, both shortly after Kirk and bunch got to San Fran and starting wandering around.

But he has a good point. There was also a white one in US Marshalls in the grave yard scene. Seems like a good possibility that someone in movie making or the studio prop section owns it and occasionally stuffs it in a movie.

There have been several postings on Pennock's about Fieros in movies, Copland for one.

I bet it is just a coincidence that a lot of the Fieros in those early 80's movies are red or white. Generally when a new car gets into a movie, especially one that is used by the actors such as in Faris Buellers Day Off, it gets in there because the manufacturer gets it in there. Its different than a private owner getting their car classic into a movie.

Ia m sure that Pontiac tried to get Fieros in a number of movies in the early 80's when they came out. Originally, Fieros were only available in red or white. Therefore, the ones in movies are red and white.

This brings up the "colors available" issue. The first and only new car I have ever owned was a 1984 Red Fiero Coupe, 4cyl, 4spd. I ordered the car October 1983, and at the time, the only colors available were RED & WHITE. Of course I was "patiently" waiting for my car to be built, when I saw a BLACK Fiero in December of 83. I was a little upset that they were not building the cars as ordered. (How could a black one hit the street before my red one?) I didn't take delievery of my Fiero until March 1984.
According to the build sheet:
1984
White- 34,211
Red- 65,684
Black- 27,368
Silver- 9,579

In other words, Black was on the street less then 3 months after introduction in September of 83.
It was worth the wait!

I do have way too much time on my hands LOL

Haven't been able to add any more, but soon very soon...

Does anyone know for sure that the red countach in the opening sequence of speed zone was real or a rebody? The reason i ask is when it pulls up to the club house it seams short. i doubt the moviemakers would skip it across water and rip the wing off a real one for a 5 minute scene. Anyway just wondering.

where was the one in night at the roxberry? Was richard greekos car a kit???

Here is two more Fiero shows to add to your list. 1. Back to the Future #2. When they goto the future in the background setting along the curb is the 89 proto type Fiero in gray. You have to watch the movie real close to see it. #2 Miami Vise the TV show. Don Johnson new white Ferrari is a Fiero in the chase scenes and far away shots. In the close ups that really is his Ferrrari.

Don

Add another.

In "The Animal" with Rod Schneider, he's chasing a guy across an intersection and they nearly fall over a silver notchie.
A moment later, they run around the corner of a garage and a (probably the same) silver notchie is sitting in the driveway.

Read Nealz Nuze!

Speaking of RAT RACE it comes on tonight 8pm/ 7pm Central I think on TBS. It was also on last night too.

quote Originally posted by fierodog: where was the one in night at the roxberry? Was richard greekos car a kit???

Yes it is. You can see the stock fiero interior in the scene right after he hits him, and the camera is viewing him from the front angle.

Ohhhhhh yeahhhh!
