Title: Original MSRP
Post by: pgackerman on February 10, 2018, 09:44:27 pm

Where can I find original MSRP values for Fieros?

Looking for '84 through '88 base and GT.

I don't know about MSRP values in general, but you can get the info on any particular production Fiero.  The Pontiac Historical Society sold this to another company.  If you send them the VIN and something like $50, they'll send you the info.  My 1988 GT, for example, had an MSRP of $13,999.  I didn't buy this from them; it was on the window sticker on my Fiero as my Fiero sat new in the lot.

Paul Vargys Paulv, on PFF may be able to provide it.

Thank you.  That's very close to what I found on NADA:

Year   Car   Engine   NADA listed MSRP
1984   Fiero    4   $7,679
1985   Fiero    4   $8,495
1985   Fiero GT   6   $11,795
1986   Fiero    4   $8,949
1986   Fiero GT   6   $12,875
1987   Fiero           4   $8,299
1987   Fiero GT   6   $13,489
1988   Fiero    4   $8,999
1988   Fiero GT   6   $13,999

Trying to write up something for the Newsletter and my values weren't making sense from for 86 & 87 Iron Dukes.

Maybe its because they only manufactured 9132 in 86 but 23603 in 87 so they were able to drop the price per unit.

Well, you don't know beforehand how many will sell.  I suspect it had more to with sales having fallen off in '86, so they took a hit on the L4, buut jacked up the price on the GT.

I wonder where the Meras and Indys fit into this.  Or, is an Indy an SE CP?

I'm trying to find a price range for each year.  Using base Fieros at the lower end and GTs as the higher seems to be the best way to accomplish this. 

Meras, Indys, convertibles, etc are not in the typical range, but would make a great article by themselves.  The problem is finding any accurate numbers.  The best source I've seen is Paul Vargyas from NIFE.  Every year he produces a Fiero price guide which include Meras and Indys.  But there's nothing on convertibles, engine swaps, and other modifications. 

I'll listen to any ideas on how to find actual sale price information.

Other than in person, or by checking the registries and such, there really isn't a way to differentiate an Indy from an SE. The VINs are the same.

Rodney Dickman might be able to help with Meras.

This page (http://www.fiero.net/mera/article.html) lists the 1988 Mera price at $24000 to $28000.
