Well, two of them actually.

Kinja'd!!!

A guy not too far from me has a pair of red ‘88 Fiero Formulas...one is a stick and one is an auto. The stick car is the better of the two and has a title, the automatic car is a parts car.

My thinking basically goes like this: bring them both home and swap every part that’s cosmetically better on the auto car to the stick car. Pull the wheels (assuming they’re the nice staggered Formula wheels), engine, and anything else worth saving and then scrap that shell. Now I’ve got a 5 speed ‘88 Formula to drive, a spare engine to rebuild, and a set of wheels to put sticky tires on.

This is a good plan, I think.

I think it’s a fierotastic plan. Or Pontiastic. This is a dream situation of mine, applicable to several different cars.

88 was the best year of the Fiero too. Good deal if it's a good price.

$1000obo for the pair. If the stick car is solid underneath, I think it's a pretty excellent deal. I don't need the automatic car for anything but trim/body/wheels/engine so I don't care if that's a rot box.

Fierorgasmic? What’s funny is there’s ANOTHER red ‘88 Formula for sale in CT, I could go get that one too and have a harem of Fieros.
