Does anyone know how I can veryfy the car as as far as I know there is nothing in the option codes to say it's true.

Factory RHD Fieros are like the Bunyip. Figments of overactive imaginations. Here's a hint. Check the carpet on the left hand side. Is it original? Look for a rubber pad on the left hand wheel well. If the carpet is original and the pad is there, the car is a converted LHD. PM me with your mobile if you want, I'm in NSW.

As people mentioned, any RHD Fiero is an aftermarket conversion. Here are 4 that I found pretty quick.

Here is an 87 that was converted:

Here is an 88 that was being converted:

Here is another 88 that was converted (replica build):

Here is an LHD 86 in a junk yard:

My friend in Australia does these conversions...So this car might have come from a country that drives on the left side of the road, and somebody changed it over...See if you can trace it's VIN back to previous owners....

Thanx to all that replied, My car was converted I am told in 1993, there is a plate hand stamped over the service part sticker by a company I have been unable to find
Don't matter as the car is fully registered here in WA.
So thank you all[
