And he is probably one of the happiest damn kids in the country. If I have the money to do that for a kid of mine in the future I sure as hell would. I can't think of a better way to bond with a kid than to truly listen to their ideas and help them find a way to make them a reality.

ya know i think most of us are just a little ticked at that green fiero because 100% of the money that was spent was Fiero 5's not Jordan's. We all work hard to support and work on our cars and yes of course Ski is in there... im sure he works just as hard as anyone (had to throw some defense that way). As for Jordan's FIero i wonder how many financial assets he has been able to supply in putting this thing together. probably just allowance money that in itself was provided by Fiero5...
Are you serious!? The kid is 10 years old. What other money, in a country with child labor laws, would a 10 year old have??? Fiero 5 is his father. I wish my father would/could have done something like this for me, and I bet you wish that your's would/could have too. Fiero 5 lets his son take credit for a car that in reality is his car, but that he lets his son decide on what goes on it. I would not finish a car like that but I am not 10 either.
I can't believe that you are ticked that a father has taken his own time and money to build up a car with his son's interest in mind.

Lex, remember awhile back when you got upset (like we have ever seen you not upset about something) when you thought I was giving you crap for posting your opinion about me in a thread? And now you are giving me crap for posting my opinion here along with facts to some of what has been said? Isn't what your doing what we would call being a hypocrit?
Here is an attempt to clear something up, I may be wrong in saying this but
Steve, If you re-read the post that Eric said, "Wish I could have hung around and watched them present the trophy to you again." That must have been a gas ......" he is referring to when you asked the MAFOA member to re-present the award in Jordan's name and not yours !
he as well as everyone at the show seen or at least heard the acceptance of Jordan's trophie.!!!!!!!

You mean "hypocrite"? Remember awhile back when you said you were leaving PFF for the "other" board?
Jesus.. I guess this means that I can't post pics of my "daughter's" Fiero since I'm doing all the work and paying for everything for her.. I mean, heaven forbid that I choose to make a nice car for my kid just because I can..
And no, I'm not living through her, I have plenty of cars for myself..

My 2 cents and my opinion ...........
Thanks for the clear headed read on that one. I didn't take it that way and I am sorry if he actually meant it that way and I took it negatively instead. Honestly though, can you really blame me for thinking that, since after 5 or so posts from him in this thread alone slamming us over and over? My frame of mind wasn't exactly set for a possible post from him all of a sudden after all that, that suddenly he may actually post a positive one. In any case, I edited my long winded post in the positive chance that you are right. See, I can admit when I may have made a mistake. I hope I was wrong in how I took that last comment. As for the trophy presentation, yes, we were also stunned that they first read my name as the 3rd place winner and not Jordans name, as apparently they got my name off of the pre-registration we mailed in for the car and not off the field check in registration where Jordan was listed as owner. So we nicely asked them to re-due the announcement again and correctly say Jordan and not me as winner which they were very nice in doing again for us. I would like to take this opportunity to thank MAFOA again for doing that for us
Goodnight everyone and hopefully this thread will not still be at the top going strong with negative comments here tomorrow morning Right Lex?

Yeah sure, I'll go dig though your 10,000 trash can posts. That would be as ridiculous as putting a fake bottle of NOS in your car
What? Can't find it? Yeah thought so. As for the rattle can and fake NOS bottle comments, shows what you truly know, or in this case once again what you obviously don't know Lex.

You'd have all that money if you hadn't spent it on bondo and fiberglass :-).
End of cheap shot, hope you enjoyed...
Yes, I enjoyed that!! I am confused about your comment's though...
Being that you are a Auto shop OWNER I would have thought that you would know that Body material's that you mentioned are NOT that expensive.. Thanks for trying to be funny! Sure cracked up Poorman..

Por = Porsche (A 944 getting converted to a v8), Vette (C5) = Corvette. I own both and if that is indicative of being poor then you must be in REALLY sad shape.

I haven't been on the forum for a while, thanks for reminding me why guys...
Come on now. We ALL dont argue like this. Some of us just sit by and be ignored as usual LOL

YAY passed inspection, tagged for 2 yrs.
"If" that is actually true, then it would be the very first time in over a year now that you have actually replied with anything even close to being nice to me, the green Fiero or anything at all related to either. Since we all know that Zebras can't change their stripes over night, I have to ask here, what are you "really" up to now?

I am very happy that my little brother has not seen this web site!!! I can't belive that a bunch of adults can be so cruel to a 10 year old! He has worked hard to have his car look like that. How would like to see your car up on an most ugly website! I am very suprised... i thought that all fiero people loved the fiero not the color or design. Tarrah
I wish I never started this thread... I forgot that there are people in here that are simply to.... SIMPLE' to enjoy it..... I think jordan's car is kewl I am NOT a rice fan and I thought 'the fast and the furious' was stupid.. but the car had had TONS of manhours and thought put into it... I was looking more at 'BAD' body designs... not targetting peoples own opinions... for example there are a few the qualify... like the lowrider is ugly and the trikes are a disgrage... I am emailing cliff and asking himto remove this thread....
This doesn't get my vote, The body is intact meaning it's based on taste. It looks like a hotwheel car not my taste but were all different. The world would be boaring if everyone was the same and drove the same color and style cars around.
This is just plain disgusting, And gets my vote also as being ugly.
Another one that gets my vote... Infact all the trikes on here gets my vote for being number 1 ugly.
[This message has been edited by 86fieroEarl (edited 06-07-2004).]
This one does not get my vote either, I really don't consider that being ugly... Infact I think it looks kind of cool.
May be a little ruff but it doesn't get my vote either for being ugly. It just needs some TLC.
This one is mine Soon it will be the badest 4.9 fiero around when I get her painted and redo the interior and lose the leather skirt and get the calipers repainted black. Yeah it's ruff on some parts but just wait Muhahahhha!! The color is going to be Gun metal black
[This message has been edited by 86fieroEarl (edited 06-07-2004).]
This would be considered ugly if it was perminant but I think this was preforming a part in a parade or something.
This doesn't get my vote either for being ugly, With a areo nose and a new paint job get 17inch gunmetal rims and get a 5inch wing extension instead of 7inch and this will look badass.
This doesn't look bad at all with a nice GT spoiler this will look sharp... It does not get my vote either for being ugly.
so much drama in the fiero community - everyone has different opinions on what is in goo taste - but this thread is just inflamatory and begs for drama, trolls and flames.. the hell of forums
we should try to stick to the possative side of things - I'd really like to see some different angels of some of those cars - maybe get some inspiration
Not to start a waqr but let's see the Ugliest fiero's... I know this is opinin based so don't get a worked up if your ( or my) fiero appears...
You knew darn well this was what would happen in this thread. Shame on you for posting this topic.
PS My ugly Fiero is in my sig. No matter how ugly anyone else thinks it is, I like it, and seeing as how its my car, thats all that really matters, isn't it?

I was PM'd and asked to give it a rest. Not because I was wrong, but because you were a tool and arguing with you was boring the rest of the community. I tried to post something "decent". That's the best I could muster up. Live with it. Take the compliment and run with it. Print it out in bold red letters and highlight the calendar for all I care.

Btw, ZEBRA has an "E" in it.
Yeah I know Zebra has an "E" in it, but just like the sad fact that you can't treat fellow Fiero owners with any real respect, I just simply can't type LOL You got PM'd to shut up but not because you were wrong?? Puh-lease Talk about who's the actual tool here. I pretty much knew that it wasn't a true compliment coming from a proven trouble maker like you, and your latest idiotic "have to still try and get the last insult in" post at me certainly verified that. So, you can take your now obviously fake trying to now save some face compliment and stuff in your "bought" pro street for all I care 'el Presidento. Have a nice day
