Sadly car needs to go. Some idiot driving on the wrong side of the road hit me last June. Frame is fine, but there is some metal work needed. Bumper was bent and metal around headlight bucket needs to be pulled and straightened (see pics). So fenders and bumper cover need to replaced or fixed too. I was just getting ready to paint the car before it was hit. So here is the good. There is a lot of money in this car, mostly from the previous owner. The guy bought the best of everything. Most of the upgrades were done around 1999-2002, but they have less than 8k miles on them. It pretty much sat in storage while he owned it and I used it very little untiI I could get the smog taken care of. The car runs and handles great. Would make a great track car. I just don't have the space or time to fix or part it out (that would be a shame). All the motor, turbo, and suspension work was done at The Fiero Factory. Have about 15k worth of receipts for everything but the turbo. Here are some of the items.

Ryane Motorsports Suspension
Slalom front suspension system
Rear bump steer kit
Vented brake kit with Wilwood calipers and proportioning valve
Ryane/Bilstein coilovers
1" front and rear swaybars
Poly bushings
Mr Mikes seats, visors, door kits, and headliner
3.4 GM crate engine
Heavy Duty clutch (dont know make)
Design 1 stage II turbo kit
Pioneer cd/mp3 player, upgraded speakers
Brand new 7 year battery
Lloyds floor mats
Custom gauge cluster
16" SSR Japanese rims w Dunlop Z rate tires
Stu outer dew wipes (great product)

$2500. I think thats a good deal even with the repairs needed. Beware California folks, Smog nazi's don't like the turbo kit.

Please let me know if you have any questions ************SOLD*************** pending sale.

Wow, I'm not in the market for one at the moment but if you were in the area I'd be hard pressed not to buy it. GLWS!

Yeah it seems buyers are always on the other side of the country. I bought it from someone in Michigan. It was about $600 to have it shipped. Forgot these parts...

Rodney Dickman Comp Shifter
Fiero Thomas shifter and ebrake boots.
128k miles on the odometer

This is they only place I have offered it so far. I well put it up on Ebay or list it locally if no one on the forum wants it.

Damn why didnt you list this back in January? This is the car I was looking for. Not that the car I now have is bad, but this just has what I want............. a suspension that I can do solotwo with!!! & manual transmission. And a little Gingerman & Grattan track days. Oh I see the rear suspension is stock with bump steer kit. Nice interior and I like that Blue! I like the 16" all around vs the 17 & 18's that I have.

Damn may be I should sell my car now that I have taken care of a few things and get this car?.

Solotwo ---- I was still hoping the guys insurance company would come through back in January, otherwise I would have listed it then. The rear bump kit includes different control arms, I will try to post of pic of the rear. Had always planned to take it to Willow Springs, but never made it. Previous owner had the suspension set up a little stiff for street use. Its all adjustable, I just left it as is. Its too much fun in the corners to change.

How many miles on the suspension, brakes, engine, turbo setup, etc.? You may have posted it, but I do not have enough coffee in my veins just yet.

"Most of the upgrades were done around 1999-2002, but they have less than 8k miles on them." OIC.

If ya ever did come out this way, you have a bed to rest in, food, and a clean shower. I just like to cuddle though. . Heck, I have no issues with competent people like you driving my GT.

I think the logistics are out for me. I am not rich. Still trying to move some things around. Not out just yet.There is just so much that I want on that car. Heck, I have everything to repair it. I want to swap the cool parts onto mine, then take my new parts on yours. Argh!

What are the odds? Me too . Woah you're talking to a guy who blew reverse while doing a highway pull

Whoever gets this car is one lucky SOB, even though I'm not financially in a position to be buying toys- this car makes me not care haha.

Quad GT---- never had it dyno'd so I wouldn't want to guess on the HP. The Design 1 website says the stage II can handle 9-10 psi, its only running 6 psi right now with a conservative tune. Im sure there is a lot more HP to be had from a different tune.

hyphynator1984---- yes its currently registered, expires in May. The car runs fine, everything works but the AC and the drivers side headlight wont pop up because of the metal damage im guessing. The turbo kit does not have a CARB number, so you are on your own regarding smog.
