I'm 47 (in less than a week), and own two Fieros. An 88 3.4 coupe, and a partially disassembled 88 Formula. My first Fiero was an 85 GT that I purchased new, when I was 28. Traded it for an 88 Firebird, two weeks before they announced the cancellation of the Fiero. DOH!
(But as a consolation, I own page two! )
Here's a pic...

Hello I'm 46 soon to be 47 I bought my 86 about 14 years ago and have loved that car now for 14 years and have done a lot to it, and still want to do more, once you start doing things to improve the speed, the looks,. or make any changes your hooked. You have to find the time, and the money, and learn, the know how. So thanks to nice guys like bubbajoe, and people on this site you can learn the know how. Just ask and play and have fun. Bobby Albrecht with my 86 Fiero GT with a Allante V8 it's fun and sweet.

Quite interesting spread of ages here. I was wondering if most owners these days were either original owners or people who loved them new and have just gotten around to buying recently. I'm really glad to see the younger crowd taking an interest in these cars, most around here just think of them as "old American junk" while driving their lowered Hondas... ick.

I'm Joe, I'm going to be 24 next month. I got my yellow formula when I was 17. My brother had to be shipped out of the country for me to get a car. He's in the army and was going to Okinowa. I've loved the car ever since. It was my first car. I've since had about 15 fieros. I finally sold all of those off to finish my V8 project. I sold my last formula in Feb. Now I'm within 2 months of finishing my V8. I just bought the V8 kit, now all I need is a water pump and clutch.
I will be 26 in another month (Getting old ) First fiero at the age of 18 moved and sold the car then missed the fiero so much and decided to buy another

I bought my first Fiero new in 1987 as a 40th birthday present for me. I still own the car. I bought my 88 used in 96, still own the car. I bought my 3rd in 2004.
My average age is 18. I started out at 0 and I made to to 36 so that averages out to about 18, I think. OK, bad joke. What do you expect from someone who is 36?

Just turned 40, always wanted one when they first came out but I was stationed overseas and bought Minis instead. Finally fell into what looked like a good deal a couple of years ago... spent a small fortune in time and money making an 87 coupe look and drive ok only to have it stolen and butchered with me having driven less than 500 miles in it. Now working on a 88 Formula/98 Lumina 3800/4t65e swap having just gotten the donor car last week.
I'm Will and i am 19 soon to be 20 years old. i currently own 5 fieros (88 Formula (project, 3800sc), 88GT, 86GT (for my bro), 85GT (future project), and 85GT<----For Sale). i have however rebuilt over 20 fieros in the last 4 or 5 years.

I'm Ron, 37 (until next month) and own 2 Fiero's 86 SEV6 & 86 GT . 1 runs (SE) and the other (altogether now) IS FOR PARTS.
My first Fiero was an '84. She was showroom quality, drove it 100 miles a day for a couple years and never had to do major work. Sold it when I found out I was going to be a Dad 11 years ago. Needed a more family oriented car.
It would seem my son is developing a love for the Fiero's too. He made me buy him 3 of those little cars that just came out from YAT MING.

I'm 25 and have had at least one Fiero for nearly 10 years now, and have been "doing the Fiero thing" since I was 13 or 14 and my Dad bought his first one. BTW: To counter balance my age, my Dad is 67 and still doing the Fiero thing too!
Daniel here and i am 20. Doing the fiero-two-step for nearly 5 years now. I fell in love with ghini's at age 6 and found out at 14 that you could do a body swap. (god bless the internet) So i bought my first one and then fell in love with the car. Lost many many g/f's over the car... but hey... my car won't stand me up.
