Lovely! I used to have an early (chrome) B GT but my guilty secret is I rather like the rubber bumper look.

It honestly doesn’t lack power…it suffers from cafe standards tuning. Push the gas pedal more to understand the truth. Many people “solve” the “problem” by installing a pedal commander or getting a tune. I myself don’t see the need when you can simply push the gas pedal more and adjust your foot. Another “solution” is to push the ECT button which changes the shift points, holding the rpms higher between gears. Like you, I love the seating position. At 6’2” coming from sedans all my life, my Tacoma is a great transition in to a truck personally. My primary complaint was the factory sound system which I solved with installation of a powered sub, 2ch amp and front door and dash aftermarket speakers.

At Carlisle I spoke with two former GM engineers that worked on the Fiero project, Both said that the Getrag transmission can hold a maximum of about 170ft lbs of torque reliably. Here is a guy with a swap with an engine that puts out over 250 ft lbs of torque. You know that's not going to last long.

Im was a toyota fan until 2023, their quality went down and it's so sad to see. Some of the new taco's transmissions are blowing up with less than a 1k miles, including the manual trans. Very sad to see.

If you’re traveling through Georgia, I’ve a friend with a Humber Super Snipe, Rover SD1, Lancia Beta Berlina, and a Peugeot 604. Let me know if you’re interested, and I’ll help make a connection. I also know of a nice 128 wagon in Georgia. I’ve a Euro-spec P6 3500S imported in 2021 and a U.S.-spec 124 sedan, though it’s largely in pieces at the moment.

I 've to wait for two months and then I'm getting the Mustang Mach-E 2024 model, black color, can't wait ☺

Great video, thank you

Lunar rock nice wheels n locker . 👍🏼

I slapped down 2K in cash and bought myself an 86 silver fiero in 1992 as an 18 year old ; a year later I drove from southern WI to Miami in the thing navigating with no more than a paper map and road signs 😅 that car was one of the most reliable vehicles I have owned!! The only issue was the endless popping out and replacing those darn fuses🤣good times!!!

Always thought the trail edition looked awesome but wasn’t worth it cus they chose to base it off the sr5, I got the off-road premium for barely anymore money, way better options and interior. Liked the detail of this video and never had known the m300 part number you refer to, can you explain it/where ya found it? 👌🤘🇨🇦

Nice design 😊

Welcome to America grenadier

Made in France British company bmw engine

I never understood why Toyota charged more for the Trail Edition which has no LED headlights and no MTS.

Great video and production. Robin is a fantastic guy and true enthusiast. I'm the guy in L.A. with four Arrow sedans of various marques.

Great video

Well done

What a retro mod! The 5.7 is just what this later version Fiero needed. I love the T-shifter. If I recall correctly, the Pontiac R&D sold this concept as a fuel efficient "Urban Car", hence the 4 banger. The prototype reveal was much sportier than Upper GM management expected, but the car show crowds love, love, loved it.

My right ear enjoyed this video

I used to drive Escapes since they released. The last escape I had was the 2019, before that the 2005. Now I have a 2023 Bronco Sport Badlands. It's what the Escape should have been.

i want one so bad

My late dad owned a new H120 in 1970.

My brother's 1st car was an F reg 68 Sunbeam Rapier in.76 as.a 17 years old In.Wakefield West Yorkshire, after that car he had 3 Capris on the Trott.

I'm about to buy one of these, with the 3.5l V6 I hope there reliable

That’s all?

Sounds like it's in tune and starts the way it's supposed to!! LOVE THE COBRA WHEATHER IT'S A COPY ARE THE REAL DEAL ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

LOVE AC COBRA ❤❤

LOVE AC COBRA 🎉

Both beautiful & in pristine shape! I grew up in Central Pennsylvania,but I am English,been back in England most of the past 38 years. I remember seeing quite a few Sunbeam Alpines & Crickets,but not many saloon Arrows.. .plus I don't remember seeing ANY Simcas in Pennsylvania,& was not aware they were ever marketed there. However I do believe the late 70s to 1990 Plymouth Horizon & Dodge Omni hatchbacks were designed and developed by Simca,as were the similar Chrysler/Talbot Horizons,& sister Simca,in Europe. When I was living back in PA in 1990-1991 & had a friend with a 1980 Dodge Omni & a friend with a 1980 VW Rabbit/Golf(Pennsylvania made at that time for North America,although the first few years of sales there they were imported from Deutschland) & both of my friends' cars had the exact same VW Audi engine! I think it was a 1500 or 1600cc. By the way,do you know which Simca models were sold in The US or Canada in the 60s &/or early 70s?

yes please

Nice, starts well.

It was a cool design. The execs at GM were complete idiots though, so here we are marveling at it and the failure that it was. Heck, not even Pontiac is a thing anymore, and further testament to the morons who run GM.

My dream is to own one of these. I think it is one of the most beautiful cars ever made. I'm aiming for the one of the V12's, the 5.3l or the 6.0l. I also want to manual swap it as they're plummed and ready for it and seems a terrific upgrade to make. The day I get one, the first place I'm going is to my Dad's to pick him up and take him for a ride in it, which is to say the dream is not only to own a Jag XJS, but to take my Dad out for a ride in one too. Great video, very entertaining.

Paint it Blue 🐎💩🥃😎👌

Just bought made in Ohio RDX….GM lost my business

Chinese crap

Beautiful. Miss seeing them about.

Classic

Nice design

If my memory is correct, the Plymouth Barracuda came out a short time before the Mustang. I'm not saying the Barracuda started the Pony Car genre, but I believe it was released earlier than the Mustang.

I think Ford put $70 million US dollars into the updated facelift version.

The 1996 Buick Roadmaster would be my pick of your collection, it will be the 96’ Collector’s Edition with the hood badge. My second would be the BMW 740 E38, I’ve been hankering after one but I’d want the 728 base specification model in pre-face lift with the orange indicators which I believe was only available in European models.

A very nice review.

Hey, I don’t know if it’s just me, but one of my headphone speakers works on this video. :)

Very interesting history of Rootes,Chrysler UK,etc. I was very surprised to learn that Imps were briefly sold in the US! I never saw any there when I lived in Pennsylvania from 1972. Do you know which years Imps were sold there? I remember seeing quite a few mid 60s Hillman Minxes in the State College,PA area,in the 70s.

It's such a well cared for,beautiful car! 😍😍

I own 4 Avengers here in New Zealand and have been classic racing one since 1984, they are the best cars, far better than the Ford Escort for speed and handling. Enjoyed your video.
