Is that a real Fiero in their illustration? I wonder if it is AI.

Every single photo on the listicle depository the article came from is AI slop.

Fiero's the mid-engine plastic rocket, first US mid-engined since Vector or whatever, Iron Duke or 2.8 V6 to 140 hp, looks like Ferrari ripoff but handles zippy. Why good? Lightweight, pops wheelies almost, cheap thrills. Random, engine bay fire stories but fixed easy. Now 15 to 30k for GTs, was 5k junk, cause rarity and 80s oddball collector fever. Uhm, fun project car if you're handy.

Damn... they're deformed.

I knew the article was blowing smoke when they described the MR2 as having "no rust drama".
Wait... what?! That's the largest issue they have.

Some are rather bizarre. I like this one in particular.

If you watch the You Tube videos you get the impression that as a whole the car collector market is soft. Affected by the changing demographics of those that collect classic cars can it ever rise?
