Just a bump for the new year. I'd still like to sell this car. I Have acquired a seat bottom for the drivers seat that is torn so the seats will be in great shape.

Bump for you. Looks like a great car. Hope it fines a good home. Too far for me.
Good luck. Jason
Thanks man. I built this car to keep but I got a 86 v-6 car with a miller woods turbo setup that needed some work not long after I finished this one. I just can't justify two fieros. I'd like too, but I'm out of parking spaces.

Really nice looking coupe, and with a new motor and asking 2800 who ever buys it is getting one hell of deal I think. IT's making me wish I had the cash.

I wish you had the cash also.
I wish I had the cash to support keeping it but I don't have enough use for it and the 86 to justify the insurance and such. It is nice to get 20+ city mpg. Now if i could just figure out how to haul tools in it for work I'd save a fortune in gas every week.

I'm a bit confused, I thought the 4cyl 5spd will get 30+ MPG?
Ok just reread the post and saw the performance upgrade work on the engine, that would explain it.
I've been wanting a 86-87 4cyl 5spd. I just cant make it that far and the money is not right for me now.
If you ever find one that will get 30+ CITY mpg, buy it. I averaged 22 CITY mpg.
As for Highway MPG, I would think it would get in the high 30's at least. I've never checked it as I've not driven this car other than city driving. The upgrades on this motor didn't affect MPG hardly at all. And it was not "babied" around trying to get the best possible numbers. I did an average on a couple of gas fill ups under normal CITY driving conditions.
