He is not serious about selling this car, if he was he would have posted a price, this post is just a waste of our time unless you want a cup holder...

Simple..............make an offer that you feel this IMSA is worth to you. True that there are many fieros for sale here but only one IMSA.

Well nobody is forcing you to read any posts on this forum - it's your choice. And it's true this thread has helped many other fiero owners looking for ideas for their cars.

Again as earlier, if you want this IMSA then simply make an offer that you are comfortable with. Who knows when you might need a replacement again?

I have worked on this car over the years.
It is an amazing example of an early Custom Fiero. I love the fact that it doesn't have a V8 or a 3800. This car is PERIOD CORRECT. You can't buy it now, and there are faster cars... But this car is truly collectible.
It will actually rise in value in time.
I WISH I had the room for this one.
I am upset to see it go, but I know the new owner will be happy.
Take care of it. This is a special car.

The question isn't what it's worth to me. You're the one selling the car. The question is how much it's worth to you. If I make a totally reasonable offer, but you won't take anything less than $100K for it, then what's the point of making other people waste time trying to figure out what it is that you want?

If you want people to bid on it, then don't post it in the mall. Post it on eBay as an auction or in the auctions section on here.

Truth is that this IMSA is definitely for sale. And there have been many reasonable voices who have posted compliments for this IMSA. So if this thread / post is not running as you expect / want then don't read it. Simple as that. Go find another thread to complain about.

Wrong year, wrong color, wrong engine wrong builder.

This original IMSA built by PONTIAC with the right colors and the right engine brought $3,520 at auction on August 1, 2013


Here is the auction results page:

Here is the original thread with pictures:

The completely restored, well documented, bonafide race car #55 Goodwrench Pontiac Fiero IMSA GTU Huffaker Engineering, sold at Barrett-Jackson Auction in Scottsdale, Arizona in 2009 for $25,300.00.


Here is the auction results page:

If these are the prices that the two most important IMSA Fieros brought just how many serious "collectors" are there out there that want to pay top buck for a look alike copy?

I have owned Fieros since they have been made. I have owned two IMSA bodied Fieros in the past and just purchased another with a v8 from another forum member. Fact is that the Fieros that bring the most money are completely stock pristine low mileage cars that are as new. I have seen re-bodied v-8 Fieros sell on eBay that are in excellent condition go for 1/5 their build cost and consistently bring less money that pristine original Fieros.

No price means overpriced or not seriously for sale. Post a price if you want to sell it. I will post my views as I wish just as you post yours. Even if you don't approve. The facts I posted above speak for themselves. If you don't like what you read here then take your own rude advice:

The ornery guy is right. Post a price, I would like to know how much a car like this costs.

Are you just posting it to get compliments? I can say it's a nice car all day long, but obviously you aren't just going to sign the title over for no money, because I said your car is nice.

Will you take $3500 for it? That's roughly what the original IMSA concept went for at auction, and heck it had a real SD4 DOHC engine in it.
