Amir called me yesterday to inform me he was following a Lamborghini and needed me to get the Fiero out and make some trouble. So 20 minutes later I finally catch up to them, and I decided to go ahead and show him how I roll. hahahahahaha. Dude was probably 60, had a 30 year old girlfriend with him, and Im pretty sure he took it back to the dealership to find out why he just got smoked by a Fiero. I love this car

There is no way a V-6 Fiero beat that car. The only way a Fiero could beat that car is if it had a V-8 in it. I ain't going to believe it without some proof.
J/K with you--Good kill and that poor guy is wondering what the hell went wrong.

Nice kill, but I'm sure the old dude didn't buy the Gallardo to street race with young kids...Try getting a 30 year old girlfriend when you're 60 driving a 20 year old Pontiac.

You should drive the Aveo when trying to pickup chicks J--You will have better luck.

I believe the story. A Lambo won't do the 1/4 mile in 10.9. I believe that its performance is somewhere in the 12's. Many 3800SC Fieros will beat the Lambo. The Lambo will eat the Fiero in a road race though. ------------------ 87GT - 3800SC Series III engine, 3.4" Pulley, N* TB, LS1 MAF, Flotech Exhaust Autolite 104's Custom CAI 4T65eHD w. custom axles 87GT - 3.4L Turbocharged engine, modified TH125H " I'M ON THE LOOSE WITHOUT THE JUICE "

Have to disagree with MB... According to this study the Aveo engine won't make women wet... I bet the 3800 will...

Actually Lamborghini rated them at 11.80 but Road and Track Magazine tested the LP560 at 11.40@130 mph.
That ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hi im new. I just bought a wrecked 98 GTP and i plan on pulling the motor and installing it in my fiero. hearing this just makes me want it that much more. I guess i can start my searching on how to do the swap. because i have no idea lol!! i also want to put a pontiac g6 tranny on it 6-speed baby!!!!

Do yourself a favor and use the 65 E that comes with the GTP.

Glad you had fun, but seriously, at around 150 mph he's going to go past you like you're standing still.
yes this is likely, actually it will probably be more like 160 mph, heres why. In the 1/4 I would be almost 12 car lengths ahead of the Lambo (as Lamborghini rates the car, im sure with this guy I would probably be 20 lengths ahead). This would be at about 130 mph. If he were running 5 mph faster than me constant at the 1/4 mile mark it would take him 16 seconds to catch up. If he were running 10 mph faster than me it would take him 8 seconds to catch up. 8 more seconds and I would be doing well over 160.
And I bet you he could pass me, but I would pass him at the next gas station. hahahah.
Cool car though, not really comparable to a Fiero.

I'm going to have to come visit your shop sometime and see this unbelievable car of yours. Congrats on the kill and the new shop. If you need any web or graphic work give me a holler.
