Aircare was Canadian version of emission testing.....so it had failed it's smog test. Sounds like it must still be a runner......
If I get a reply and can't work it out, I'll post the details......

Crescent, Oklahoma is a helluva long way from Vancouver BC Canada.

Don't get your hopes up, fellas. There are a lot of Fiero guys in this area. It'll get snapped up (if it's legit).

A few years ago there were a whole string of Craigslist ads in Vancouver for non-existent Fieros, usually '88 GTs and Formulas listed for less than believable prices. At the time I referred to them as Phantom Fieros. Perhaps the loser responsible for those fake ads has returned to his mother's basement and is at it again.

Wow, that's not to far from me (Seattle,WA.) wish I had a place to put it! And I have no idea what it would take to get it through customs into the U.S.

Interestingly enough, I brought an '88 coupe and a Formula up to BC from Washington State last year. After having dealt with the total BS from customs in both countries, I wouldn't do it again unless it was for the deal of the century.

Looks like someone already did... literally.



Seems to me that if anyone was trying to get rid of a car, even for free... that they'd use a more flattering picture.

I emailed as well, just out of curiosity. No response... no surprise.

You know, this almost sounds like the same loser that posted these same type of ads a few years ago. In one instance, he wanted potential buyers to send him a list of reasons why he should sell his Fiero to them. I sent an email and told him he wasn't fooling anyone anymore with these bogus Fiero ads... and perhaps he could get his rocks off some other way.

I obviously don't know if this is the same guy, but nevertheless he doesn't sound like anyone I'd want to waste my time with.

If the guy doesn't respond to emails, perhaps he needs to have his ad flagged for removal. Just thinking out loud here...
