    Don't get me wrong... I think a V8 Fiero conversion - done correctly - is very cool. This car may even be really nice. What struck me as odd is the almost crack-addict wording this guy uses during the description. He'll start on one subject, then, almost mid-paragraph, jump to another... then jump back again in another paragraph.

    I love crazy people. They keep me entertained.

      In my humble opinion, I could care less how fast something is if it is not physically appealing to me.

      I've seen 2000+ HP alcohol fed BBC's in Vega's, Pinto's, and other crap cars and they hauled a$$ no doubt ...... but the fugly factor just kills the fun factor.

      Just my opinion though.

        I've always enjoyed asking crazy people if they were aware of the fact that they were crazy........or if they actually made the mistake of perceiving themselves as if they were perfectly normal!

          I say if you want to go silly fast knowing you'll absoltely die if anything goes wrong... may as well get a bike.

          Interesting read though.

            I just re-read the description for laughs, and I found one of the biggest contridictions I've seen in an Ebay ad.... And just one sentence later.

            "THE BODY IS STOCK AND PAINT APPEARS TO BE ORIGINAL.

            THE INTERIOR HAS CUSTOM 8 BALL SHIFTER KNOB AND SONY NO BOLONY CD PLAYER OTHERWISE ALL STOCK.

            EVERYTHING ELSE IS CUSTOM TOP $..."

            Wait... What? He just said everything other than the stereo and shift knob are stock. Then just one sentence later, he says everything else is top dollar custom.

            Again - I love crazy people.

              That's a kit for it. One of many.

              I'd love one of those with an LS6 in it. I read that the stock drivetrain can handle in excess of 400 horsepower.

              94 Del Sol VTEC: 27 city/ 33 highway, knee deep in slowness
              SOLD- Good riddance!

                  I think it looks similar to the Lotus Elise. I like it personally.

                  Here's another


                  Or...


                  I'll take one any day of the week.

                          That is the problem with many rebodies. From some angles they look good, from others they look goofy. I happen to agree.... some of those lines look trashy. That GT40 though looks good.

                            I actually don't have a problem with the looks of the Fiero GT. I think it has nice, simple lines. Body kits rarely do anything for me.

                              Sure did. I have to admit, I still kinda like them too. There are some mighty fast fox-bods out there.

                                That GT-40 ain't too bad. But I guess I just don't like body kits because, they kinda remind me of Tammy Faye putting on a few pounds of makeup just to cover up something she doesn't like.
