It has been way too long since I have owned a Fiero, and I was just thinking this morning that I should see what is out there.
I very recently totaled my '06 Mustang GT, and really do not want to replace it, but need a toy.
I am being pretty specific in my search, and am really only interested in a Blue '87 with automatic. A 5spd would be considered, but my old knees would limit the fun times, getting old does have its drawbacks.
Other '86 and up GT's would be considered, but I am really missing my Blue '87 today for some reason.
The last Fiero I owned was an '88 Formula that I really should have kept, but that is another story. Now that I think about it, a Formula (with an automatic) might be good to have also!
Anybody have something or know of one for sale, please contact me either here, or email me directly at .......

Please include as much information as you can, and of course any pictures available too.
Projects are ok as long as rust is at a minimum in the trunk and the cradle. (Wisconsin was not kind to Fiero's back when I had mine lol and I am a terrible welder).
I am located just outside of Lake Geneva Wi. and would like to keep it as local as I can.
Thanks Thomas, I saw that one earlier, and if it was a GT I would have been all over it! Been good myself, how have you been holding up. It has been a long time....

LOL. I have always felt this way. Everything is for sale, it's just a matter of how much you are willing to pay.
Isn't it strange that after a bombing, everyone blames the bomber, his upbringing, his environment, his culture, his mental state but … after a shooting, the problem is the gun?

Very wise choice, and I wish I still had my first car.... not. LOL. 1961 Chevy wagons are not that attractive!
When I bought my first Fiero GT, brand spankin new in '86, I would have loved to only pay $8k! Hang on to it, enjoy it, and most of all, never regret keeping it.
It would appear that factory blue GT's are relatively rare from my past 24 hours of searching, and they are not being sold either.
They are out there so keep looking. I just bought an 87 GT Blue with T-Tops in near mint condition with 85,000 miles. For reference I paid $4,000 for it and $700 to ship it 691 miles. It needed a windshield ($225), a thorough cleaning ($150 including complete compounding), two new headlight motors ($180), GT trunk seal ($100) a couple bulbs ($10) and new tires ($320) but will need a bit more as time goes on and the little problems start showing themselves. All said that is $5,685. It needs a nose badge as well but I haven't found one yet. can't imagine that will be more than $30 or so,

That would appear to be a very good deal. I am still looking, and when the right one comes along, I will buy it! Wanna sell me yours? Just kidding, and congratulations on the purchase.
I have two cars that you might consider. I haven't put them up for sale but might consider selling one to help pay for restoring my red Formula and silver Formula. I have a 1987 blue GT automatic. Runs and drives. Needs minor work. Also a white Formula T Top. I am putting a new fuel pump in it now so it isn't running at this time. Automatic, PW.PL. Subwoofer, Leather Beechwood seats. It was the February 2013 Fiero Store Calendar car if you want to see a picture. Located close to you 10 miles west of Rockford IL

Honestly, that is exactly what I was thinking. My daughter doesn't know we got it for her yet. I was thinking you get an equivalent (or close) one and we sell them to each other for $1. My wife suggested we get the girl downstairs and just go through random GT pictures with her to see what she says about colors. The only one she liked was the blue GT. She still has no idea but...well...that kind of sunk that idea.
Just a FYI "ThePrezzz" Tom, has a original 1987 Blue GT automatic, I think he has only 37,000 to 41,000 miles he is getting ready to sell it in Spring, but I noticed your in Wisconsin and so is he in Greenfield Wi so maybe you can contact him. The car is clean and everything works, never smoked in and no pets in it either, He has a heated garage so it stays nice a warm. Don't know what he is asking, all he does with it is show it at car shows and either takes it on the Fall or spring cruise with the Fiero group. Here is his cell number and home number. cell 1-414-336-4361 home 1-414-282-9926

Thanks John, that makes 2 local to me. Someone else emailed me with a 22,000 mile blue GT earlier today. He is looking for $12K, which is not outrageous, but a bit more than I was hoping to spend. I am sure they are both extremely nice, but I have to drive mine when and if I get one. Both of these sound like they should be kept low miles, and I will average a minimum of 8K miles a year during good weather. I garaged my Mustang every year....... it would have been in storage this week if I had not totaled it.
Oh almost forgot his price, he is asking $7,500 or best offer. He works with every fiero guy when it comes to price and even takes trades and cash. His big love is his lambo that he is finishing up and as for his stock GT all he ever wants is that his car goes to some who will drive it and enjoy it. Trust me he will be drving that lambo daily once he finishes it, except in the snow! LOL
What I would like is more of a project car than a perfect example. Need to get my hands dirty again, been too long. Hoping for minimal rust, and no major body work needed, but needing repainting would be ok. I know how the clearcoat is usually destroyed on them (I've had a couple already like that) so not a big issue.
