While searching for some small parts for my G-Body Malibu project up here in Michigan I came across 8 Fieros in the junkyards. 6 were at Tiger Auto Salvage on Bristol Rd in Burton, and 2 at J&S on Dort Hwy up at the north end of Flint. I hadn't gone to the others (there are a handful of junkyards in the Flint area, and another one is in Fenton right next to US-23), but it wouldn't surprise me if there were more.
Anyone here have the Red GT at Watkins Glen today? I'm up camping for the 6hrs at the Glen and saw it sitting in the car corral. Place was loaded with Vettes and Camaros looks like EVERYONE has one of those then I spied the Red GT which looked lonley!

The guy pulled into a parking lot and i followed trying to get his attention. When he stopped to wait for an opening to pull out of the lot and back into traffic i got out of my car and tried to walk up to his side of the car, but he must of thought i was going to rob him or something cause he took off aggressively!! hehehe
Sunday morning 7/1/2K12 I spotted a red notche in Lancaster, PA. It was getting off of route 30 onto Fruitville pike around 8 am.
The same day around 11:30 am I spotted a red GT fastback on route 30 near Dutch Wonderland heading west bound.
No waves or hat tipping,, I was in the Jeep. I make this trip every Sunday morning (bowling) and hardly ever see a Fiero when I'm driving mine.

I saw a yellow notchback in Frisco, Tx today. Looked good at least from a first glance. But right now I'd think any fiero was good looking.
What do you say to another Fiero owner when you see them in the wild? Instinct makes me want to walk up and make love to their car... But I know I shouldn't do that, at least not when children are around to witness it. I saw a red fastback on Park the other day in Plano... I didn't know what to do. I thought about chunkin' up a deuce but I was like man I'm so lame in my unworthy tC.
I love Fieros so much I feel like I'd just become socially awkward if I were to approach a Fiero owner out of the blue in a random parking lot... or if I followed him home... What do I do? Or what do you do?
I was at work when I saw a black notchback. I actually thought it was my boyfriend coming to see me but there was no one in the car and he wasn't anywhere to be seen. Next thing I know I see the car driving off! He should have been at work also, so I was so confused. I ended up calling him and he said he was at work. I told him no! I saw your car! Lol but then I remembered the wheels on the one I saw were stock, whereas shill has non-stock wheels.
Anyway, I wonder if he is on this forum? I saw you at a vet clinic in spokane. Idk if you saw my white 86gt but you did drive past it on the 'driveway' going to and from the clinic
I have not seen a Fiero on the road for years. I live in deep South Georgia and they just do not exist in this area. The only one I see now is mine, reflected in the store windows as I pass.
There is one in Columbus and one in the Savannah area that seldom comes on here and there's another just across the state line in Phenix City that's pretty active on here. The one in Macon simply disappeared and one on the other side of the state in Statesboro sold his. Those are the only ones I've heard of down your way. Take a drive up to Atlanta and meet some of the Georgia Fiero people on the 14th.
Saw a really nice looking burgandy GT today as I was pulling on to Hyway 280 in Childersburg, Alabama. The couple in the car were waving and grinning as if they had not seen another fiero on the road in a while. Come to think of it, I have not passed one since my last visit to Dean's.
There is one in Valdosta, it is on Craigslist for sale. The other locations you mention are average 100 miles from me, guess I have 10,000 square mile area to myself. Perhaps you guys can make it to the October 20 car show in Albany. Link is http://www.oldride.com/events/3759801.html for infromation. The Albany Corvette Club usually takes many of the trophys home, I have one for a 1989 C4, six speed convertable that I owned earlier. A bunch of Fieros would be a big hit at this show.

That was me! I saw you sitting at the light and told my girlfriend that Fiero owners wave at eachother. She didn't believe it. Apparently it tickled her funny bone when we were waving at eachother. It was good to see another Fiero.
Saw a 86ish Fastback GT this morning on S. Queen St in York, PA. White with gray two tone. Headlights in the up postion, stuck there. Looked pretty good.
Today in Lawrenceville, Ga. I saw a Gold 86 or 87 what I think was an SE stopped at the light on Georgia Hwy 20 at Ga. Hwy 316, headed South on 20. I had heavy traffic through the intersection so I couldn't get a real good look. Young man driving it.
In Spokane, I saw one parked at the Winco on Sprague. My boyfriend says it was a formula. White, no rocker panels, and stripped of any types of stickers. Had Oregon plates.
Saw a red gt in driving on Highway 95! We were behind you for a bit (in an Aveo) then you turned onto Dalton. Are you on here?! I didn't recognize the driver....
Blue notchback on Government way. Was hanging out on the shoulder, seemed to have trouble going. I was in my sable watching to see if you had to pull over or not for help.. But once there were no cars coming, you were on your way!
I saw a red bumperpad notchie driving north on RT 250 between Norwalk and Sandusky Ohio. Anyone on here? It was awesome because I am a young first time fiero owner and that was only the second time I've ever seen one in motion. I haven't even seen mine move yet, or even ride in one , but I'm still hooked, and it shouldn't be long until my white 84 is on the road!
July 21 while some of us were scouting for Run For The Hills, we found an 85GT from Canton, Ga. parked on The Tail of The Dragon watching vehicles pass through. He had his 83 year old Mom with him.
Then as we got to the lower end, we encountered a beautiful 26,000 mile silver fastback that a man had recently bought. He was from Charlotte, NC and had brought his teenage daughter down to The Dragon.
Just the other day, I stopped and talked with an owner of a twin cammed 88 GT. Driving down I-90, just east of Freya. I slowed, and we pulled off at Sprague. Cool guy, works at an auto fab company that builds race cars. Put the twin cam in it about 14 or so years ago.
Then, out to Fieroking's a few minutes later, I spotted a GT painted like mine, but it had T-Tops. Traveling west just before the weigh station.
THEN, a few minutes later, coming west off of Post Falls, there happened to be a silver Notchie!
I thought this all cool, seeing as I was about to see Joe's cars, plus Don's Murci'. Mmmmmmm, Fieros.

Was this dude with the TDC driving a GT body? Also into audi's? I raced him back in 2001 i think when I had my 3.4PR. In a half a mile, he only had a fender on me..
Saw a beautiful blue notch back when driving past the gas station. I was debating about going because it was so full. But I saw a glimpse of a really bright blue and it looked like a fiero. Sure enough, I pulled in and it is! Parked right next to him and got to talk to him. He even had a little yorkie he said he just got it up and running and the previous owner had it sitting under a tree for ten years. He must have just gotten it painted cuz it looked beautiful. I mentioned Fiero Fest, maybe we will see him there! And hopefully he stumbles across this forum. Guess we'll see.
I don't see them that often where I live... But I'm ALWAYS looking.
Saw a yellow Fiero in Carrolton or Irving the other day, unsure where I was...
Then saw this silver notchie on 75 heading north, I exited on George Bush, unsure where he went, but he was going FAST! A friend of mine recognized it, and said he once tried to get in front of him, but the Fiero blew passed him before he could even get ahead of it. Here it is, silver notch, chrome wheels, lead foot :::
I saw a black notchie with a wing ('85 GT?) on my way to work today, on Bethany Home Rd at 59th Ave. in Glendale, AZ. I stopped next to him at the light, just long enough to tell him about PFF. Maybe he will check in.
I keep seeing a Red notch back that is sitting in a fenced in lot on Hillsborough ave some where around N 46th street. Its red with a lot of weathering on the hood and seems to be moved around the yard every so often.
It was good to see another Fiero.
, but I'm still hooked, and it shouldn't be long until my white 84 is on the road!
