Well, if your looking at this ad... then you have an interest in this brief wonderment produced by Pontiac. There are ton's of interesting tid-bits about its creation, and untimely death out here on the internet…So I won't try and dazzle you with that kind of trivia. What I can tell you is what separates this car from other Pontiac Fiero GT's. I purchased this car last summer from a gentlemen who's health was failing. The car had sat in storage since 2005, but before it was put away, it's previous life was fueled by the passion of this man to make this car "beat or keep up with any Mustang/Camaro on the street". What he did exactly to the car/motor isn't clear to me but by simply getting in it and strolling down the street you know this thing is ready to go. The story he told me (no I can't verify), is that he followed some magazine articles out of Pontiac Magazine and Hot Rod on how to give your Fiero more power. According to him, he had the motor bored out from the stock 2.8 to accept the innards of a 3.4. The results, a very powerful Saturday night HotRod and daily driver. What I've done: -Cleaned it up -Brakes all the way around -Flushed Clutch Fluid -Made it ready to be driven daily -Replaced Steering Column (it had a bad lower bearing in the tilt) What it needs: -If you want the AC to work, you will need an AC belt and assume a new compressor. -It could use a good set of tires all the way around, because of age and dry rot. -It really should have a stronger battery put in, the compression on the motor is almost too much for the stock battery. -The headlights stopped flipping up, but I have the rebuild kit (just haven't had the time). Also Included in Auction: Rear Wing, and 5 Original wheels Happy Bidding |

GM recalling another 1.3-million cars over power steering woes
Mon, 31 Mar 2014When it rains, it pours. General Motors has announced yet another major recall, covering 1.3 million units in the American market over concerns that the power steering could suddenly fail. As reported by The Detroit News' David Shepardson, GM has now recalled nearly ten times as many cars as it did all of last year.
It's important to note that should this problem arise in these cars, the steering won't fail completely, however, power steering could suddenly stop functioning. Manual steering would still be possible, but as GM says, there's an increased risk of accidents, particularly at lower speeds.
Like the ignition switch recall, this latest problem covers a wide range of vehicles from Chevrolet, Saturn and Pontiac. Normally, we'd give you the full rundown in paragraph form, but the variety of models and model years means a list is just easier. So, have a look, directly from GM's press release:
How to turn a Pontiac Fiero into a trackday car
Fri, 17 Oct 2014Imagine hitting the track in a mid-engine, rear-wheel drive sports coupe that's affordable and has pretty good parts availability. It might sound like a pipe dream, but it's actually quite possible, if you're willing to think a little outside the box. The Pontiac Fiero is out there just waiting for a little work to turn it into a competent racing machine.
Think about it for a second. Of course, we would all like to be snaking through the curves in something exotic, but what happens when you crash or something breaks? The bills are going to mount up quickly. However, if you ball up a Fiero at the track, as long as you're not hurt, then it's not a huge tragedy.
That's basically the story of Steven Snyder in a new video from Drive starring Matt Farah. Snyder wanted to go to the track cheaply and ended up with an awesome little Fiero with a huge wing and a claimed 220 horsepower at the wheels thanks to a V6 from a Chevrolet Lumina. Check out the video to see how this pint-size Pontiac performs.
Lutz says Washington killed Pontiac, next G6 was to be ATS derivative
Tue, 29 Oct 2013How many people think Buick or GMC should have gotten the axe instead of Pontiac? You can't see it, but I'm raising my hand. Autoweek reports that former Vice Chairman of GM, Bob Lutz, has indicated that things didn't have to end up the way they did.
"The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.'"
In a talk given at the Petersen Automotive Museum for the Inside the MotoMan Studio series, Lutz says "The Feds said, 'Yeah, how much money have you made on Pontiac in the last 10 years?' and the answer was, 'Nothing.' So, it goes. And when the guy who is handing you the check for $53 billion says, 'I don't want Pontiac, drop Pontiac or you don't get the money,' it doesn't take you very long to make up your mind." Lutz even added that the next-generation Pontiac G6 would have benefitted from the rear-wheel-drive platform of the Cadillac ATS. How awesome would that have been?
