and i said ......."how about $2500??"
yes indeed folks, that is my "Counter-Offer" to an offer on My TransAm.....i will sacrifice the TA for the Mera. yes i will
$2500 should fix it....as is, no??
if i sawp for the 3.4 i want it done with mods so i dont see that happening. but i got the headers and poly already.....ao i may have to check now.

plus i have been lucky to have worked my real job for a month and 7 days....hopefully till the end of the month, but no unempolyment for when the indeffinate lay-off happens. but, the way i see it, a broken car is a worthless asset, hands down

just waiting for the reply..........................

hay Rick?? are you talking the rare Fiero bright red for 1988 or something??
i have thought my Mera red has a deep red feel to it. not bright at all....laters

That is the question. I thought the Mera would be painted the same red as the 88 GT since they re used the stock roof panels when the cars were rebodied. Now I hear that it is a different shade. If Richards Mera is painted the original Mera red, then we could compare it to his 88 GT to see the difference.

It might be easier to swap your body on to the SC 3800 Fiero. You would not need to drop the cradle. I am sure some of the SC3800 guys here can help you with the code the car is throwing. That is too cheap for a 3800 swap Fiero.

I agree--if it's sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Sure looks nice, though.

Paint on my Mera (88GT) is B8590L DuPont Red, which comes out looking like Candy Apple Red?


I don't think it's a good Idea for God's Toy Box to be so close to you Danny Boy!

Just so you guy know I'm still around.... here are 3 small pics of my last car show in Dearborn MI at the Ford Product and Development Center.
Notice the center caps. I usually never show the car with caps but this time I did.

One more show on Sunday in Windsor ON.

The T-Top? Yes. You had asked for some color comparison pics. I believe the Mera is more orange.

Thanks for the pictures Richard. You can definitely see the difference. The Mera has more orange. I am in the planning stages to redo my 24 year old paint job. I want the car to be eye searing red ! Viper Red is the brightest factory red I have seen. The base tint red may be even brighter.

Hey, must be nice to have two double garages!

WOWWIE!!.....^^^^^^ thems not good enough?? tough crowd

hey Rick??? is this red enough for ya?? in the sun light you'll get your "Blinding red"!!
a twin turbo monster with an owner stated ".......over 650 HP"



dang that beast sounded fierce. it was in town so he did not get on it in the city, but the R8 sure did. i got some vids i will post later. yeeeeehhhhaaawwww!


they left early so i did not get many pick after droolin over the R8. actually that Porsche won "Most Exotic"
i contended that the R8 should have been considered an "Exotic" instead of a "Sport" because "......Carbon Fiber is an exotic compound" expecially in the USA sooooooooo if its construted of an exotic material.....it should have been judged as such so i think next year somethings are gonna change. i cant wait to get Mera X in next year....the sales video and everything. its gonna be excellent!!

heres another one, too. but why, oh why do these sellers never show the Mera sticker.
at least this guy shows the trunk lid open with something sticker like in the right spot
ohhhh and no mention of what Mera number it is, even *totalfail*

that red one Wayne posted looked promising with the 3.4L but it got bid on (by the seller, most likely) starting at $9,000.
tooo much for me. now he thinks hes gunna get 12K for it?? huh......

I saw this Black "Mera" on Ebay and contacted the owner, asking what the build number was. Reply I got was, "No clue". I also asked if he had ask Rodney to do a VIN look up. No reply ....... Hey batousai666 can you do a VIN look up? 1G2PE1190JP217614

Sure looks like a Mera, but I have been fooled before. Small clue is the missing famous mirror toggle switch .........

Ok, if he says "knows" and has confirmed the VIN is in Rodney's database, then he "should" know the build number ??????

I also asked him about the Mera sticker and was told that the previous owner removed all Mera ornaments and labels from the car and substituted Ferrari ones for them. It may be an 88 Mera but cannot be confirmed until we have a build number from somewhere. The mirror/controller is certainly not original. With the F430 mirrors I would expect to see a joystick controller but it would not necessarily be required.

On the black car, the wheels and side louvers look to be correct for a Mera. Odds are the original Vitalonis were replaced when they failed. Pehaps the joystick was replaced as well. Front bumper is a Rodney kit. I would bet this car is a Mera that has been altered from stock.

The red car is definitely a kit. Hood, headlight covers, and side louvers are all incorrect for a Mera.

I think I saw this several months ago. I guess it's 'sposed to be a 355, but the top is not pretty--albeit well fitting.

Dan, this Mera has been listed for sale by the same owner before. I checked on it when I purchased mine, but I did not want an automatic.
As you can infer from his answers he is not very personable. It is a nice car with an aftemarket steering wheel, and glove box,

You are quite the detective. The damaged Corson Spyder appears to be the same one in the picures you posted. These were expenisve back in the day and could be purchased even with a TPI V8 installed.

The 2.8 on the cradle might be a buy if the engine is in good condition.

Called Dave from Boscos garage. He has received all my emblems from the Grand Ams and he is working on the MERA letters. His progress is posted on the Bosco's Garage website. I had to track down an extra "Grand" as there was an issue with the one I had. Hopefully soon we will have this sorted out!
