The first thing I noticed was they mistakenly called the 84 a GT. And the caption on the pic says "1983". And what are they talking about, "cramped"?! Yeah, right. Tell that to stimpy.

An '84 GT huh? Another of those rare Fieros! Be sure and watch eBay, I'm sure one of them will turn up!

Maybe that's a real '83 Fiero in the caption!

Notice the side vent is missing! I've heard the vent was added just before official production.

'84 GT... hehe

Hmm if you go to http://www.supercars.net they have a GT listed as an 84 too.. go figure, you say fiero and everyone assumes 84.

That's hillarious.
Is it just me, or do the rims on that '83 Fiero look weird? Maybe it's because i've never seen a set of tech wheels that were shiny and not corroded with the clearcoat flaking off.
I also like how they make it look like the v6 was an 88 only deal as well.

Why is a 2525lb car with 92hp "too slow" while a 2534lb car with 82hp merely have "mild performance"?
I guess when some punk tries to race you, you shouldn't call his car "too slow" and instead, tell him that you don't want to race him in his "mild performance" car.

Enough ranting for today.

Take a closer look at the "1983 Fiero" - where is the air intake?

Hey Fiero5,can you tell us how the lettering on the tires read in the real ""unscanned" picture. That would tell us if the picture were just reversed or if it really is without an air intake.

Oops,never mind,I looked closer and it says "Goodyear Eagle GT" nevermind disregard
That and it's also got the gas cover...."Doh"; I need to stop drinkin.....
