I will smoke ever car on this forum with my Fiero. When I put my 3800 turbo with 600 HP in the Boxster it will smoke everyone too. I get my hands dirty and know how to use tools. So back off and be nice to the new guy. Anyone want a nice and very fast Pontiac BP or e-mail me. Visit Fiero.nl to see what your missing.

I think if you re-read the posts, most folks on here are trying to tell you that your expectations for the selling price of a Fiero are simply out of line. You're dealing with a group of people who aren't afraid to spend some money on a car that they enjoy but no one's going to throw their money away.

I don't think anyone doubts that you've done a nice job with your cars and they are surely fast. The "mine is bigger than yours" response seems a bit out of line though.

I've personally put well over $15k into a car that's not worth more than $4k. I don't expect any kind of monetary return on my investment. It's an investment in my hobby, nothing more and I don't expect more.

In all honesty, you may be better off parting the cars out. You may be able to make more money that way. Maybe by parting out all three you may get enough to buy a really nice 986 outright. While you seem to have some really fast Fieros, I would imagine the market for complete hot rod Fieros like yours to be limited.

On the other hand, someone can probably drop those engines in other GM cars.

Obviously the Fiero is no Porsche, but a low 11 sec mid-engined car for 15k seems like a pretty entertaining idea. 30k for the Northstar version seems a bit much though.
