I found my car's doppelganger in Howell, Michigan a few weekends back.
The owner was not around, but I couldn't resist getting the picture.
Mine has the sunroof open.

Man, what are the odds? Both yellow, 1988, Formulas, and in excellent condition. Those are some of the rarest Fieros ever.

I drove around the parking lot a couple of times. I figured they'd run out thinking that someone was stealing their car!

That is hilarious! And nice to see two Fieros so well taken care of!

They aren't the same. The antenna is missing on the OP's car.

The yellow on the OP's car is more vibrant.

Thank you! I think part of it is the way the sun and shade were hitting the cars.
Hours with a buffer didn't hurt either.

Odds are pretty good, it's always been known the yellow Formula's were the rare cars, and a high number have been collected and preserved. There are probably more yellow Formula's than gold coupes at this point.
