That's the problem with kits. You spend a S-load of dollars on the kit, and even more on the little bits & pieces you need, then years working on it.
Then you add all that up 25 years later & try to sell a $3000 car for $7000. He shoulda built a Fiero based Lamborghini. That woulda fetched his asking price.


BTW, I love the Tri-Magnum & the Fire-Arrow kits... Just whining the disappointing truth

Hey... You took that out of context... You made it sound like I liked 'em!  :icon_puke_l: Just pointing out the current desire for supercars

Whew! thanks I thought you liked em!  @7@
The fiero was a great car if you sorted out some of the flaws like the wiring. I think its a crime to chop one up just to make a look a like super car ( which isn't ). One good thing that came out of the "Lambo craze' is more aftermarket stuff for the fiero like improved suspension parts and V8 swaps. I met a guy who swapped a Grand national turbo V6 in an early one, now that was a super car / sleeper! He told me vettes and porsches couldn't touch it. I'd rather build something like that than a plastic copy of a mega$$ super ride!
