Thanks.
I debated if I should start the thread with ”My name's GTRS, and I have an addiction...”, but I figured that, given the forum, that goes without saying.
I'm a car guy. I've owned lots of cars, and used to drive everything. Times change, and I live a quieter life, now.
The Fiero wasn't my first choice, but of all the cars I'd driven, I most enjoyed an '85 Camaro 5-speed with the 2.8HO. Not a fast car, by any means, but fun. It was stolen, unfortunately. Some years ago, I wanted to buy a similar car, but they wanted $32K. Not worth it, to me. I found other cars, but they weren't as nice as mine, and didn't have the HO engine. Insurance was high on the Camaro. I'd always wanted a GT40/Fort GT. They're fun to drive, but they were well beyond my price range--even to maintain. So, I got a Fiero. I didn't even get my first or second color choice. Through several Fieros, I've never managed to get my first or second color choice.
My Fiero is unique. I've never seen another like it. While not completely stock, I'm trying to recreate a previous Fiero.
