This gets my vote... I'll take European Elegance over American "bling" any day of the week.
Call me a closet case, but whats up with the American "bling" Thing. It can't be the rims, HRE rim are made mostly for "European Exotics". It can't be the lights they came from a non - American NSX. It can't be the body kit, the IMSA kit has been around for years. And lastly it's an American car so whats wrong with tweaking it American style, BTW it was not tweaked to be American or European it was tweaked to my taste. So what or who in the pics makes you refer to this car as "BLING".

Hey, I'm sure they were just expressing their taste and without trying to offend anyone. I did my Fiero my way, you did your Fiero your way and even if I wouldn't do my Fiero your way I'm amazed by the way it was done! And I wish I had your interior... and your brakes... and... :-)

Your right , I'm just tired of all the Bling comments. BTW If I had to vote I would most likely vote for your car after all it's been my computer wallpaper for the past Year.

I like both cars and if you'd remove the plates from Yellowstone's Fiero, you'd be hard pressed (not us but the general public) as-to the car’s origin and the ethnicity of the car’s owners. American/European car maker and non-description on the ethnicity of its owner. That's the beauty of our Fastback Fieros.
As for the word, “Bling”…some of the dudes on the Lambo-Power forum are at odds with using it. Why? They will talk “bad” about your Lamborghini if it isn’t sporting anything that’s high-end material. Actually, Troy's car is being talked about on the Corvette Forum. The Corvette dudes thought it was a proto-type Corvette since Troy's car was sporting the C6 13" rotors on all corners. Somebody either was playing a joke on them or just didn't know what type of car it was. A guy spoke-up and told him that it's a Fiero. In this case, I think Troy's car is leaning towards a...American muscle rather than Euro-like.
