It's based off a Volkswagen, not a Fiero, try searching the internet and VW Forums.

THAT IS SUCH GOOD INFO! Thanks so much, I am pretty sure they had 2 names for them, the entera vipre and the cimbria, thats what the owner of the company told me, but i guess they are more commonly called the enterra vipre, any more info or pics?

The Cimbria was a VW based kit, that is what California Kid was referring to. Here is a link to show you what the Cimbria looks like: http://www.priceofhistoys.com/showroom/cimbria/index.html This particular car has a similar twin known by the Sterling name. Your car is definitely a Enterra as shown in the pictures of the brochure above. I hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of it.

Hahaha, oh well, i got a good price on it, and it was in good condition and it looks cool, that about all i was going for. But i guess i got a little more. I dont plan on beating it, but i might get a beater to put the km's on, but is it worth it? is the car really worth anything? i kno there are only a few made, and mines in mint condition, but whats it worth? i hope it is more then i paid for it!

It is only worth what a buyer is willing to pay, but judging from the few responses on here, it is quite valuable. The person you bought it from might not have done enough marketing of the car, which is why you got a good price.

The Cimbria and Sterling were similar but not the same car. The Cimbria had gullwing doors and the Sterling had a full canopy like a jet fighter. The Sterling also had a hatchback over the engine while the Cimbria had a decklid. Very similar cars though.

Sterling

Cimbria (Later known as Neria and Eagle SS(as shown with 928-style headlights).)

I had my car in several car shows and a his friend was at one of them and he gave him (the guy in Kelowona) my card. He then emailed me, that was about 2 years ago now.
My car is off the road for the winter as insurance expired in October.
You should look into getting a declared value put on yours. It you toast it they will only give you what a Fiero in good shape is worth.
I'm open to offers on mine.
Yes it has a V-8 in it ,didn't you look at the web site that was what most of it was about?

Yeah I've also heard the car compared to a DeLorean, Lambo, Ferrari, Corvette, Bricklin
