  • I know what I want for my next car... :D

    Well I was very close to buying one, but the guy was an ass so the deal fell through.

    Was looking at a 91 Cav Z24 3.1 5-speed. First time I've driven a 2nd gen.. period. Awsome car. The 3.1 mounted to the 5-speed in a light car (compared to my GP) was very torquey and fun to drive. When I matted it I had to make sure I held on to the wheel through each gear I can see why those are 16~ second cars stock

    Anyways I like the way the way they drive, the power, and the interior is way cooler than ugly 3rd gen. I'm keeping my eyes open for one and then I'll be making it my sweet ride.

    I like the 17" American Racing Sniper wheels.. they look hot on sunfire GTs and I'm sure they'd look great on an older Z24 as well.

    Those ground effects dress the 2-gen cavi's up real nice.

      Quite honestly, I think those wheels are plain damn ugly. Pick up a set of GTU 16x7 alloys with some nice wide rubber on em.

      But I guess now you see why us 2nd genners like our cars so much.

        No offense but you suck at photoshop

        Nice windows

        LOL I do love the cars tho, they are very nice looking and a 3.1/5-speed isn't all that slow, I'd say flat 16s

            That car is just a screen shot from softwheels website, then I used MSpaint to get a general idea of what the tint would look like :P

              Take the fun you know of that car.. with the 3.1 and 5spd. Multiply that by 3 or 4, and then you'll know how fun it is to drive a 5spd Fiero GT

                You guys think they'll bring the Fiero back someday? You never know...

                  highly doubt it.. GM would find some way to screw it up if they did.

                  Which would you buy.. new corvette, or a new Fiero with a 5spd 3900s/c or turbo

                      They ARE coming out with the Solstice roadster... but they've already screwed it up... supposedly it's going to weigh 2900 lbs... that's too much for a challenger for the Miata and S2000.

                      As to the vette or the firey arrow, that's a damn tough call... I'd have to say it'd depend on how the firey arrow looked. Are we talking a modern incarnation of it, or the old one as a "new car"?

                        If it were gonna be rear engine... I think the 3900 would be way too much.

                        I know the 3.1/5 speeds are quick (or did they come with 3.1's? Or just 2.8's?), I can only imagine that the latest 3100's paired to a 5 speed would be really damned impressive. Especially in a little car like the Fiero.

                        I'd also like to order my 2004 Pontiac Fiero with 26" rubber

                        EDIT: I've been thinking about trading my Z34 for a Fiero. I'm not a huge Fiero buff so I don't know a lot about them, but which Fieros are the ones that look like fast backs (I saw someone's sig pic on here that had one, it was white)?

                          If they were gonna make a Fiero I think some sort of low displacement DOHC V6 would be cool. Save some weight and have a high revving motor with lots of power.

                            fastback's are 86/87/88 GT.. 85GT is still a notchback
