In addition to the Fieros I've owned and my current '86 GT, I'm currently and have been driving this for the past five years as a daily driver.
These are pics from it's hay day. Piece of crap though. All kinds of dents and has been beaten to death. Will probably be getting rid of it soon to upgrade to a newer four door car.
Here's the GT.

We have too much now... looks like I'm ford pale, but in fact, I dont care about brands, I care about cars. So now:
Fiero '85 on overhaul Ford Scorpio Ghia RS '91 on overhaul Dodge Shadow '88 needs maintenance, can drive, but should sell soon (it was joke, gift for wife, for summer... but she likes it...) Merkur Scorpio '89 (only manual trans in yard...) needs repairing, a little smashed fender two months ago, drivin, Suzuki Vitara '95 our everyday mule, wifes car Ford Thunderbird SC '89 swapped to 5.0HO, drivin, but I should sell this freakin global warming generator
With gas price around $6 per gallon, and no free time, this is crazy... and when I have 2 weeks holidays now, and badly want to do anything with cars, winter makes me mad (-15 celcius all time). Pics in signature link.
You guys are making my jealous. Both of what i have need work well kinda, the eclipse just needs the body work finished. so for now the v8 gt is the daily driver.
This is an older picture of "the fleet." Since this was taken, the white 86 gt shown in the picture was wrecked (rear-end totaled by an SUV). Three other Fieros have been added in its place: A red 86 gt 4 speed, a black 87gt 5 speed, and another black 86 gt 4 speed. There is also a 1962 Chev Apache pickup, and the "family trucksters," a GMC Jimmy and a Pontiac Trans Sport minivan.

what is the deal with the saturn sky and pontiac solstice? other than the 09 solstice, the cars look very similar. Also a few years back i had a friend with a cobalt and another friend with a g6 and the interior on both of them was just identical!

its called platform prostitution. use the same car to sell more than one variation. so you in theory sell twice as many of the same car. the sky and solstice are the same mechanically except for the solstice coupe hard top which is awesome. the cobalt and G6 are not the same you mean cobalt and G5 they are the same the G5 only came in the two door version though. its like the ford crown vic, lincoln town car, and the mercury grand marquis. all the same just different faces.

the chopper style bike that you have, i used to have a bicycle with the same kind of wheels that are on the front of that chopper. it was a bmx bike of course but long story short i was at the local skate park and broke the back wheel within an hour of being there the aluminum welds broke... got it welded but was never still the same afterwards.

I drive a 96 A4 for now, it changes every few months, I had a Grand Prix GTP a few months back but it seemed kind of redundant seeing how i have a Fiero GTP
