This will be debated by lots of folks,but to me,the BEST looking car on the road,is the Fiero,especially the GT Fastback.The fiero was WAY ahead of its time.If the Gt fastback came out today, would still be considered a modern design.The car looks sleek,sexy,racy,just perfect looking,IMO.Stock,maybe not performance wise,but LOOKS wise,Fiero wins hands down.The Fiero had enormous potential to be a threat to Corvette,in performance and looks,i heard from a reputable source!,true or not whos knows!!!!!!!it could have been possible!

Okay Xanth!Since you have stated that its very difficult to tighten the fiero v6's belt,i now know not to blame the mechanic too much.I've gotten it tightened 2-3 times now within 8 months,and it stills squeels.Thanx for the link there for the belt tensioner!,I'll definately look into that!

I have the same problem.No matter how many times ive tightened the belt,and replaced it,it does the same damn thing!,squeels on start up for 30-50 seconds and stops,really annoying!I've had the battery replaced,alternater is new,and the wiring seems okay,same crap! ???But i have the same 3 new,3 bad spark plugs thing going on,was too lazy to change the other 3 that are harder to get at the front,ill change them soon,not confident that will fix it though,but should be done so they dont seize in the heads,then you're in TROUBLE!!!!!!,I always put a SMALL dab of that silver anti-seize compound on the plug threads before screwing them in.

How does whether or not he's insured play into this?

Dont know if this helps much,but i had a belt melt off because of a seized A/C compressor.The wheel on compressor where belt rides through was seized and just rubbing instead of rolling,thus high friction and a fire!Thats what mechanic said anyway.

Went to  this mechanic,real good one at that.Problem is he never worked on Fiero's,neither have the young mechanics at his shop.Should i trust them to do my cracked manifold bolts,which involves removing the head(s)or should i take it to Gm,which will more than likely cost more,asuming they're more familiar with this?

Yeah,thats what i figured.I'll call up Fierostore,thanx a million xanth!

Hi guys!I went to my meachanic about my broken manifold bolts,3 of 6,that broke about halfway in the threads on the head on my v6.I asked if a stud kit would be better.He said if the car was built with bolts,thats what you should use,i want to use a stud kit you could get for it.Which is better?and why?thanx!!!!!!!!!

As i found out the hard way,any car sitting for long periods of time tends to accelerate deterioration in everyway.I'd get it checked by a mechanic,and after buying,i'd change all fluids.

Hi, i am having problems accessing the troubleshooting page for the 1st gen fiero headlights,when i click on fiero diagnostics,then on head light problems,i get an error screen saying IE cannot open page,its worked a week ago.

Yeah,exactly,really does it when you step on gas,quickly.What conditon are your rear tie rods,ball joints in?,or have you had a 4 wheel alignment done?

I have a similar problem in that the belt squeels on start up,no matter what make belt or how many times its gotten adjusted/tightened.

Okay,thanx Xanth,I'll look into that.

Yes,IMO,the Fiero is the hottest looking car on the road.They sure got the looks down pat!!!!!!!!!

If i ever wanted another Fiero,it woud be one from California,Florida,etc,wherever theres no salt on the roads.Do cars from those no salt zones still rust?
